BlueWyvern Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Are you looking for a College Degree program? or certifications? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xantos_gambit Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Certification would be more useful wouldn't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digip Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 (edited) Both college and certs are useful, and in todays job market, you might potentially need both. That said, Check out the TestOUT site as well as Offensive Security, CBT Nuggets and Lynda.com. Edited February 19, 2011 by digip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xantos_gambit Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Thank you for the recommendations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xantos_gambit Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 One more question, since I am completley uncertified at the moment should I focus on things like Microsoft Certified and Linux+ or are other things like Offencive Security just as important to employers these days?

Infiltrator Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 As most employers/organizations all use Windows platforms, I think you should focus on Microsoft Certifications first and then move on to other certifications like CCNA and security.

Infiltrator Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Thank you muchly, I think come april Im going to give CBT Nuggets a go. CBT Nuggets make very good training videos and in fact I am currently studying for my 70-290 server exam while watching the videos. I definitely recommend it and don't forget to check out Testout and Lynda.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xantos_gambit Posted February 20, 2011 Author Share Posted February 20, 2011 (edited) Good to hear good feedback on it, Testout looks good as well but I like how with CBT I can get a 1 year licence. Edit: though testout has the mcitp training suite, hmmm decisions. Edited February 20, 2011 by xantos_gambit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
