Hi All
This is my first post and have been a long time lurker. On Friday I finally passed the CCNA exam

, it was my first attempt but I have been doing the studying for a while. I did the Network Academy for a while a few years back but this was on the older syllabus. I had just put off taking the exam and never thought I was good enough, my manager pushed me to take, I'm glad I did.
This was my first ever certification, I have now caught the bug. I am now looking at the Security+ certification, I'm going to give myself two months to study before taking it. Set a date and work to it.
There is a lot of encouraging posts on this forum and I hope that continues.
