    Afternoon All,

    Made a complete **** up the other day and ordered what I thought was Network+ off Amazon. Turns out I wasnt paying attention and bought the Security+.

    Does anyone know when the Security+ 2009 will be retired? Im looking to do another 6/12 months work experience as well as the Network+, then from there, Id be looking at maybe doing the Security+.

    Cheers Guys,

    Ron

    You could always return it?

    Thanks for the advice, but Amazon would require a fee of £4.00 to be paid. So in the long term, would it be better to keep hold of the 2009 edition as the 2008 version is ending in 2011.

    Really?

    Sure, they wont refund any shipping (in either direction), but still, better than a book you may not get use from? no?

    No problem, it was a question I needed answered anyway.
    I'm starting to think about which exams to do next. With this version of Sec+ retiring at the end of the year I need to do it soon or wait another year or so for updated study materials to become available. Fortunately my current job gives me access to a huge range of CBTs and eBooks so I can give it a whirl before making my decision.
