So after wasting a large part of my life working in couple different industries iv decided that IT is the correct route for me.
It seems getting a comptia a+ cert is a good start for someone green wanting an entry level or at least start going the right direction. (please let me know if im way off)
Anyone can point me to some study/practice/learning/helpful material? And if im incorrect about CompTIA A+ cert being a good starting point for an entry level let me know thanks.
I am literally in this same boat now. My state is sponsoring memberships to Coursera and I’m wrapping up the Google IT Support Specialist Certificate course, there’s also an IBM course of the same premise. It has gone over the most basic information, most of which I was already familiar with. But it has touched on material I was not knowledgeable at all in. I also got the humble bundle mentioned above and will move onto that after for more in depth learning.
nice man. seems like you know your path. am i correct in assuming that or are you kind of taking as much info/cert/material as you can and go from there?
I’m going to start looking after I finish my CompTIA A+ and then continue to add certs. Most jobs I see in my area really want A+.
