Hello all

I have a little experience with working with Army Aviation databases, I currently work on the electronics on the Apache Helicopter. I am really interested in going into database admin and/or data analysis. I am taking the free MVA classes for the fundamentals and wonder if it is worth it to go for the MTA SQL or should I study and practice and just start with MCSA? I am retiring in may and want to be able to get a job (no prob on doing entry level work)that will set me on the right path. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
