Hi,
I'm looking for advice from experienced members please..

Recently gained a+ and now I’m hungry to get another comptia cert under my belt but can’t make my mind up which to study for next network+ or server+?
My career is geared towards hardware so my natural thought is server+ but with network+ expiring end of year would i be better off studying this first or is it only really useful if I was following a network support career path?

Any advice would be helpful guys.

Thanks

The network+ isn't expiring at the end of the year, it just won't be a lifetime cert anymore. The network+ is a worthwhile cert for any tech at the beginning of their career, some knowledge of networks is useful to all of us even those who end up in a pure server role.

I'd recommend grabbing the network+ before the recert policy kicks in, you can then look at the server+ afterwards (possibly) as this is currently not going to be subject to the new recert policy.
