    Welcome to CF! :biggrin

    You say that you are thinking of starting a course, tell us, what is your background in IT?

    You may find that unless you have the basics grasped then the CCNA may be a struggle.

    Hi and welcome to the forum. If you haven't had much experience with pc's and networking then maybe starting off with the Network+ would be a better option. Check out the A+ and Network+ forums for more details.

    Greetings :D

    You ask how hard are they. Well I can't speak for you as I don't know you, but it would take me from scratch about four years full time to attain those certs in your sig. I believe that once your IT interests move into networking, things get very complex hence very tough indeed.

    i agree here... to jump straight into IT with MCSE and CCNA is murder! :twisted: you would be better of starting the A+ then N+ then when you have the networking knowledge start mcse.. but for now thats a little while away.. but have a look around the a+ forums as mentioned im sure you will find info!
