    I'd be doing basic Desktop support for a small school district.

    I have an AA in CS. As for certs I'm CompTIA A+, Net +, Security + and Microsoft Win 7 Configuration certified.

    Just got back from being fingerprinted and have to do the health screen next week. Looks like my "official" start date is 12/15.

    Congrats. Now forget about certifications the next 6 months and knuckle down on workstime learning how to do that job really well.
