CCNA Refresh: Upgrade to CCNA: Security

Is your CCNA getting ready to expire? Has it already expired? Has your CCNA stopped creating the kind of opportunities for you it used to? Before you decide to let it lapse or renew your current certification, have another look at Cisco certifications for upgrade paths that boost your marketability as a serious network professional. A CCNA certifies that you are a network professional who can install, configure, operate, and troubleshoot routed and switched networks of average size. A CCNA: Security specialization validates the skills required to develop a security infrastructure, identify vulnerabilities and mitigate security threats. This particular talent is in high demand in today's risk-focused business climate.

Just like a regular CCNA, specialist certifications expire in 3 years. If you're not positive about the specialization in Security, consider the other specialized certifications from Cisco in Voice and Wireless. For the tenacious and dedicated, consider all 3. Look at the opportunities in your current work place or job market, and then decide which path to take.

Upgrading to a specialized designation adds to your credibility by letting employers and clients know that you are serious about staying in the forefront of technological advances and keeping your skills up to date. With so much competition in the market, your solid work background gets a boost from the inclusion of multiple certifications in your chosen field. Employers need some way to whittle down the stacks of resumes. Give yourself the edge that will put your name on the top of the list.

With the CCNA Security certificate an IT professional is validated at associate level knowledge and has the skills necessary to manage security within Cisco networks. When those same IT professionals upgrade their certificate to the CCSP level their knowledge is no longer considered to be at an associate level, instead the professional moves to an advanced level of knowledge. The CCNA certificate expires after 3 years at which time the IT professional is then eligible to test and upgrade to the CCSP level.

Not only obtaining the IT certificate, but keeping it renewed and updated are both key components in today's job markets. When companies are faced with personnel decisions, it will usually be the IT professional that carries an updated, renewed certificate that the company will look to, when retaining employees.

The IT professional that takes the time and effort to update their certification, will also find that the doors to promotion will be open and more readily available.

CCNA certifications are valid for three years. To recertify, pass the ICND2 exam, or pass the current CCNA exam, or pass a CCNA Concentration exam (wireless, security, voice), or pass the current CCDA exam, or pass any 642 - XXX professional level or Cisco Specialist exam (excluding Sales Specialist exams), or pass a current CCIE or CCDE written exam.

Microsoft certification is fundamental in the business world, and it is still best way that employers can set qualified individuals apart from others. Many reputable businesses rely only on technology supported by Microsoft, and therefore those left out of this group are left trying to find a niche. There are few solutions other than jumping head first into getting a Microsoft certification.

For those certificates that have recently expired, it behooves of the individual to renew it at once. Everyday, more companies seek exclusively Microsoft certified individuals for employment in their businesses. There is more of a reason to be certified today then there was a year ago. When Americans are feeling the pinch of the economy, nobody is safe; how is one protected from the reality of joblessness? Well, as mentioned previously, there is no fail-safe method, but renewing one's MCSE 2003 certification to MCITP immediately can certainly open more doors than without it.

The new MCSE course will instruct the student on how to put together the most elite, intense, and highly functional computer operating system in the business. Becoming a Microsoft engineer will give access to jobs based in Microsoft technologies. Moreover, receiving validation for unique skills can be quite rewarding. Those that were at one time IT certified will have an easier time renewing their certificates. Anyone in the field of engineering, technical support, consulting, or systems analyzing are in great need of renewing if they haven't done so already. It pays to be at the cutting edge of competition, and most servers change their technologies every several years or so; therefore, it makes sense to be well versed in these constantly changing technological times. Keep in mind that there are about seven tests that need to be completed before renewal, so it makes sense to jump on the opportunity now to get a head start.
