The Cisco training is intended for individuals who want to learn about network switches and routers. Routers connect computer networks via dedicated lines or the internet. We'd recommend that initially you should go for your CCNA. Don't be tempted to go straight for a CCNP as it's a considerable step up - and you need to work up to it to have a go at this.
You may end up employed by an internet service provider or a big organisation that is spread out geographically but needs to keep in touch. This career path is very well paid and quite specialised.
Get on a specially designed course that takes you on a progressive path to ensure you have the correct skill set and abilities before getting going with Cisco.
A fatal Faux-Pas that we encounter all too often is to concentrate on the course itself, and take their eye off the end result they want to achieve. Training academies are stacked to the hilt with direction-less students who chose a course based on what sounded good - in place of something that could gain them an enjoyable career or job.
It's common, for instance, to obtain tremendous satisfaction from a year of studying and then find yourself trapped for decades in a tiresome job role, as an upshot of not doing some quality research at the beginning.
Stay focused on where you want to go, and then build your training requirements around that - don't do it the other way round. Keep on track and begin studying for something that'll reward you for many long and fruitful years.
It's good advice for all students to talk with highly experienced advisors before they embark on a learning course. This helps to ensure it features what is required for the chosen career.
Locating job security in this economic down-turn is very unusual. Businesses will drop us out of the workforce with very little notice - as and when it suits them.
We're able though to find security at the market sector level, by probing for areas in high demand, tied with a shortage of skilled staff.
Recently, a national e-Skills study showed that more than 26 percent of all IT positions available remain unfilled because of an appallingly low number of trained staff. Meaning that for each four job positions available in Information Technology (IT), we've only got three properly trained pro's to fulfil that role.
This one notion alone highlights why the UK urgently requires many more new trainees to become part of the IT industry.
It's unlikely if a better time or market state of affairs could exist for gaining qualification for this swiftly emerging and blossoming business.
Students will sometimes miss checking on a painfully important area - how their company breaks up the physical training materials, and into what particular chunks.
Training companies will normally offer some sort of program spread over 1-3 years, and deliver each piece one-by-one as you finish each section. If you think this sound logical, then consider this:
It's not unusual for trainees to realise that the company's 'standard' path of training isn't as suitable as another. You may find that a different order of study is more expedient. Could it cause problems if you don't get everything done at the pace they expect?
Ideally, you'd get ALL the training materials right at the beginning - meaning you'll have all of them to come back to in the future - irrespective of any schedule. Variations can then be made to the order that you attack each section if another more intuitive route presents itself.
Have a conversation with almost any expert consultant and we'd be amazed if they couldn't provide you with many awful tales of salespeople ripping-off unsuspecting students. Ensure you only ever work with a skilled professional who quizzes you to uncover the best thing for you - not for their pay-packet! You need to find the right starting point of study for you.
Occasionally, the starting point of study for someone with a little experience is often largely dissimilar to someone without.
For those students embarking on IT studies anew, it can be useful to avoid jumping in at the deep-end, by working on a user-skills course first. This is often offered with most accreditation programs.
