Originally posted by flipped cracker i think it was just $100 for us because we took all the classes and stuff. looking at prices online, i see between $100 and $200 for each test. there's a lot of tests you can take. books are expensive too. i still have all my cisco books somewhere. |

Originally posted by flipped cracker i would say that ir probably wasn't worth it for me. it was crazy expensive and all i have a couple of 2 year degrees. job placement was really crappy (they didn't do anything for me, but i also didn't hound them about it). i haven't been making big $$$, but i just got a new job (haven't even started it yet) and it should be for decent money. but i graduated about a year ago. it all depends on how motivated you are. if want to just get something and be done, the tech school was great. great hours, decent size classes, ok teachers. but if you can take school and can handle the work, i'd suggest a real university where you get a real degree (from a school people know of) that has some credit behind it. |
duck if you are interested try one of the self study guides. $250.
then you take the test whenever you feel you are ready. better yet go to a local library, they usually have CCNA books. however don't expect to get a job just based on you having the certs Now if you have CCIE (routting and switching) and a 3-5 years of experience, you'll make major bank. To my knowledge there are less than 10,000 people in the world with CCIE (last time I checked) |
wow, i think there are more pandas than that.
