Line Up and Wait
I'm contemplating studying to get some Cisco certifications and curious who here has any and if they think they are really worth anything.
I am currently 37 and a Telecom Engineer/Quasi-Manager for a large heating oil company with a pretty strong background on the Nortel CS1000 product line. This includes Contact Center, Call Pilot, Mini Carrier Remotes, etc.. I currently handle 100+ physical locations with about 1/3 of them being part of our current "voice network". There is talk of migrating to VoIP withing the next couple of years with a leaning towards Cisco but nothing has been decided.
The Cisco Certification path that I'm considering would be as follows:
CCENT -> CCNA Voice -> CCNP Voice
After that I would consider doing the following:
CCNA Routing & Switching -> CCNA Security -> CCNP Security
I do enjoy the telephony side of things and would like to continue down that path but I think supplementing it with a CCNA/CCNP Security would make me more marketable in the future.
Any thoughts?
