MCSA 2012/MCSE Server Infrastructure or MCSA 2012/RHCSA

Ch1326

Hi Folk,

I am kind of curious of completing Certifications , which would be a best choice and brighter future ?


between having MCSA 2012/MCSE Server Infrastructure or MCSA 2012/RHCSA,

I am kind of a bit concerned with those 2 choices here
- If MCSA 2012/MCSE Server Infrastructure become obsolete , then no one would want me ?
- MCSA 2012/RHCSA, These certifications are associate level, not sure if many Companies would look for ?

Would be very appreciated if you guys could shed the light

Thanks in Advance

Here are some additional questions you would need to answer before anyone could give you a really useful answer:

1. What is your professional experience over the past 5 years?

2. What are your professional goals for the next 3-5 years?

3. What do the job listings in your area seem to be mentioning as far as certifications are concerned?

You're going to be facing the issue of technology going obsolete no matter which path you choose. Right now, Red Hat Enterprise Linux is on version 6 and Windows Server is on 2012. Renewing and updating your skills is going to be a fact of life if you work in IT.

As for which path, that all depends on two things: what kind of work do you want to be doing, and are you planning on upgrading either to their respective next level after earning the associate-level certs?
