IT Certifications and Careers (Official Discussion Thread)

[tofuspeedstar]

Nice. They seem pretty readily available on torrent sites and what not, too.

Any certs that you guys went out for but took multiple times to pass the actual certifications?

None personally. But I've read horror stories of people taking multiple attempts to obtain CCNA and upper level Cisco certs.

A+ is pretty entry level so if you already know alot of the subject matter i would go through the practice tests. Once you can get through them with like a 90% or better then your ready for the test. Ive done alot of my certs going to boot camps. My hustle has always been convincing an employer to pay to send me to the boot camp.

Word. I think maybe a week or 2 of doing practice tests for A+ and I'll be good to go for the test. Then Network+, I guess

Who does web design?

I've been going at this Javascript extremely hard. I can't wait to start dipping my feet into single page app development. I've finally found a database called taffyDB that I may be able to use without having a network connection. This will come in extremely handy in creating programs that are similar to desktop apps.

Who does web design?

Web design as in primarily html and css or web development which includes javascript and potentially a back-end language?

Yeah I know. I can even code it myself but I was wondering if anyone was good at it for a fee?

I was asking if you were in need of someone who knew only html/css aka web design or something more complicated
