CCNA listed as a 'entry level cert', didnt think it was the same as the A+ but whatever!

If you take the iPRO qual at college you'll have the choice of either the Network+ route or the CCNA route.

The CCNA was always an entry level cert at the same level as the A+ & Network+ combined. The only difference is that while the A+ & Network+ is designed to be general, the CCNA can go alittle bit deeper as it is specific to Cisco technology.

People may not like to hear this, but it's the truth.

At one time the MCP, the "entry" level MS cert was highly regarded, however due to the increasing number of people that have gotten this in unapproved ways it has dropped slightly in value in some peoples eye's. Adding to this: with approx 110,000 people that are certified with the CCNA vs the approx 1.8 millions people that are Microsoft certified also slightly adds to the devaluation the cert, that's why you get crazy companies asking for helpdesk staff with MCSA/MCSE's (and/or with the CCNA as they are rarer).

 

I understand it is ‘entry level’ when compared to other Cisco certs but I thought it was generally a harder exam the A+\Network+. I guess I’ll find out in 2010 when I finally start the CCNA!
