1) Get a permanent job. Give up my part-time job.
2) Pass some exams. Looking at 70-685, 290, 291, 686, ICND2 and whatever other bright, shiny cert attracts my magpie-like attention span. Nailing at least 3 would be keep me happy I reckon.
3) Get a life. This one could be tricky.

 

Goals 2012

- Really need to get my CCNA Security by November as this is when my current CCNA expires.
- Pass VMware 5 exam before 29/02/2012 so I can gain VCP status in 5 without having to go on a what's new course.
- Possibly do the VMware Certified Advanced Professional Data Centre Design VCAP-DCD but I'm not yet 100% sure if I have the time to dedicate to this.

 

Oh good, looks like we may get a study guide on the CCNA:Sec from Craigie, hopefully to the same level as his previous ones!

Craigie, do you have a blog/webpage?

 

LOL, nah mate, thought about doing one a while back, is it something people would be interested in?

 

Defo, I only asked because you mentioned this possibility a while back!

Although its nice to have the info on CF, it would be nice to have the information formatted in a better way even just for clarity!

New thread for this??

 

Have to get through this one too. Been reading the book on and off, but it's very dull, especially the SDM part.

Also, I've probably spent more time getting the SDM to work properly than actual lab time

So my goals for 2012: CCNA Security and a big chunk of the CCNP.

 

MCITP Enterprise Admin
MCITP Messaging Admin
Make a start of VCP

 

Hmmm been thinking about this for a while and not to sure what to look at next.

My aims are something from:

CCNA Security
ITIL Foundation
CCIP (or part of)
CCDA/CCDP

Maybe also looking at a new job in the new year.

 

No Certs for me next year, purely concentrating on SCCM and SCCM infrastructure, maybe taking a look at SCOM.

Major one for me is rolling out SCCM 2012 to 90 sites, which is going to take a good few months alone

 

I find it hard to stick to my goals! arghh! Just one for 2012 (currently studying)

CCNA

 

Am very jealous of you matey. If I could work all day on CCM then I so would.

Have just checked the 2K11 goals thread and I didn't post any! So I win that one.

2K12 Goals?

• Take and pass MCITP: EMA2010
• Obtain CITP
• More staff and line management experience
• Explore other possible IT job avenues
• Get settled home-wise and sort the flat out
• Continue to pay off car loan

Qs

 

Yeah, I'm a slow reader too...

 

Work Related:

- Get to grip with the new job -3rd line
- Exchange 2010 config and design
- VCP
- Project related cert

Outside work:

- Move House
- Nice family holiday
- A healthier lifestyle

 

I don't think I set any goals for 2011 so I've had a successful year
Most likely would have been gain my MCSA which I did 6 days ago, and start 70-293, which I also did in the last couple of days.

Goals for 2012
MCSE - 3 exams to go - (aiming for exam per 3.5 months)
possibly start an Exchange cert if time permits
New job - 3rd line possibility fell through so back to the board
Build machine for ESXi

Non-work: lose serious weight! Still haven't shifted the weight I gained (on top of that I already had) during my time with a broken leg!
Two sunny hot holidays!

 

Next year I will have a go at:

Upgrading my mcsa to SA including 70-680.
Hopefully once things are calm and stable look at obtaining a new situation after my current project is completed.
maybe have a squizz through VCAP-DCA possibly.....
also register for another OU course or two.
Attend as many vMugs as I can get away with

 

Decided against following the MCSA route, so:

1. Will complete MS client-side with 70-686 to gain MCITP: EDA
2. Start on Server-side with TS:70-640
3. Have a look at broadening into Cisco with CCENT

...time and money dependant, of course!

 

1. Enjoy life.
