Re: Took the CISSP exam
Yea, a friend of mine and colleague who has a PhD in Psychology, PMP, CISSP, ISSEP, CISM, CCNA, CCNP-Security, MCSE, MCSD, CWNA, CMSP, and MANY more, took the test and tanked the CCIE hard. I do want to point out something about the 70% of CISSP who pass statement: I received clarification on that number which seemed a… -
Re: Which is the "most in-demand" course/ qualification(s)?
In-demand is actually a difficult term to quantify, in this case. A+, for example, might have the one of the largest number of positions looking for it, but those are for entry-level positions paying relatively little. Positions requiring CCIE, by comparison, are probably less common, but it represents a much higher career… -
Re: Retaking the A+ exams
Honestly, you could schedule the CIW Foundations as soon as possible, walk in and pass. You only need 54 questions to pass and call it a day. The ONLY thing you may want to do which weren't covered in your trinity is HTML, which, if you're inclined, you can go over here. There are some project management items you need,… -
Re: New Year's resolutions?
Professional: CCNP if I stay in the networking realm, CISM/CISA if I return to IA. PMP/CAPM after either as a nice to have for upward management. Learn some kind of programming language to broaden my horizons. Personal: Finally join up with the local CrossFit gym. With time being so limited, I've had tons of friends who… -

Re: Who REALLY needs a CISSP?
@Fullcrowmoon First like me say thank-you for achieving the proper background and experience before sitting for an exam. You are exactly what was intended to be considered CISSP ready. My firm belief that where there is money there will be cheating. Its not the individual cert, in this case the CISSP, that has been… -
Re: New member here, some advice please
Welcome to the forms and IT! Certification are a great way to benchmark your progress and can be a lot of fun in the right doses. A+ is a pretty good way to start and your making the right choice by starting with a class. Eventually you will self train on everything but at the start, it's good to have people to help you… -
Re: Career advice for older IT worker
You have 2 general directions I would consider in your position: 1 - move into Service Management through focussing on Service Delivery or Service Transition areas (which pay quite well) which make good use of your existing experience in the IT Service arena and help you use the Business IT Management to establish the… -
Re: How far can a business degree take you?
There isn't really an answer to that, there isn't a limit to how far a specific degree can take you. Getting into management with a business degree at a good company can take you really far, it just depends on your drive, connections, a little bit of luck, etc. To give you an example, my brother and I were hired by a… -
