wargamer6 Member Posts: 56 ■■□□□□□□□□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. -
