If you’re like most of us in the networking community, you probably have one or more network certifications. If that’s you, you’re very wise in choosing to go for a Network+ certification to proudly add to your repertoire, because that achievement will make you all the more valuable as an employee. And in these challenging economic times, keeping ahead of the competition—even standing out among your present colleagues—could make a big difference in whether you gain a promotion or possibly keep your job instead of being the one who gets laid off! Or maybe this is your first attempt at certification because you’ve decided
to venture into a new career in information technology (IT). You’ve realized that getting into the IT sector is a good way to go because as the Information Age marches on, the demand for knowledgeable professionals in this dynamic field will only be intensify dramatically. Either way, certification is one of the best things you can do for your career if you are working in, or want to break into, the networking profession, because it proves that you know what you’re talking about regarding the subjects you’re certified in. It also powerfully endorses you as a professional in a way that’s very similar to a physician being “board certified” in a certain area of expertise.
