Hi all
i am having a meeting tomorrow with a man from the local college who informs me that the mcsa is the way forward for me and whilst looking about trying to find as much information as i could on the course and job prospects, i stumbled upon this forum and decided that i will probably need much help over the coming months and so have joined up.
I am a mother of four and need a new challenge in life with a decent job at the end so heres to going back to studying I'm guessing that i'm in for a hard time but i'm looking forward to it.

so hi to everyone, wish me luck as i start my journey.

Hi there and welcome to CF and good luck

 

Hi and welcome to CF!

Even though doing it through a college will be cheaper (hopefully) - for you the MCSA might not be a good starting point.. Microsoft suggest you have 1 years experience before you do the MCSA and alot of prior knowledge is required too like Networking... Is this your 1st certification? Do you have any experience? If not then i suggest the A+ and Network+ before the MCSA... The A+ will teach you all the technologies in IT that will be built on as you progress.. Network+ will assist you because certain exams in the MCSA require you know about networking topics such as subnetting...

Good luck with whatever you choose!

 

Welcome to CF

Before you sign up to that course make sure you read the small print and do some research on the web about jobs/course available for MCSA. just to get an idea what's out there!

Good luck
