Keys to the IT Kingdom

I may not have finished college but I’m sure i would be more in-demand than those who who finished those bachelors degree in whatever. This is not just me boasting my achievements but I’m talking of realities here.

With the overwhelming choices of college courses and my fickle mind, I had a hard time selecting which one to settle on. This leads me to shifting from one course to another until I decided to totally stop and focus on learning Information Technology from the net. That’s how I picked blogging up and learned about Cisco certification.

Basically, getting a Cisco certificate means that you are well versed with Cisco products which is currently the leading provider for networking devices for home and corporate use. It also means that more job opportunities will be opened as more and more companies are seeking for system administrators based on the forecast done by CNET and other tech giants.

Getting Cisco certification is one of the leading motivations for taking my job here in Cebu as Tech Support for a big company in the US. There’s no place where I could get certification back in Maasin so and Cebu is the closest option. Luckily, my workplace is just walking distance away from TESDA Cebu where I enrolled for Cisco certification training and they even have a schedule that matched with my available time.

The training is just easy to understand and it’s just like rocket science for geeks like us. It may be hard for newbies though. I suggest they get basic training before they venture to this field.

Perhaps, after I finish the short term training and, hopefully, get my certification, I could land that high paying job in Singapore and not take in calls for eight or more hours per day. It’s not a bad motivation, isn’t it?
