Hello !!

First of all I want to say this forum is so helpful and full of helpful people and very good information.

Second of all I was wanting to see if I could get some guidance on what certification I should tackle next ?

I currently hold Network plus, Security plus, and A plus certs. I am deploying overseas for one year where I will hold the position as a Sharepoint administrator for one year. I will have alot of time on my hands where I would like to study for a prestige certification one that actually takes about a year to study for.

Thanks Chris

I'm kind of biased toward MS but why not get your MCITP:EA.

nel

it purely depends on which direction you want to head. so figure that out too. if its sys admin type then MS/linux certs. networking things like cisco and juniper. the list could go on.

What area do you see yourself in? Maybe certified in sharepoint would be a good start considering the hands on you'll get

Good luck man! You should have plenty of time to study over there. I know I had quite a bit of down time. I'm guessing you are a 25B since you will be doing sharepoint stuff. I'd suggest the MCITP:EA also if you are looking to stay on the server side once you get out.

And fyi, the F in FOB is Forward not Fort.

They probably didn't tell him what the F stood for so as to not scare him..lol
