@@NetworkChuck With it being one year later from this video's release, would you still say this is the path to take? I'm curious to see if this would still be a great route to take.
@@WarMatt86 I watched a David Bombal interview and the gentleman he interviewed stated. "If a network goes down at a rather large company, who are they going to call? The Automation Engineer? The Cloud Engineer? Or the Network Engineer? He strongly hinted that the one with the strongest networking foundation would get called of course even though the other 2 are working in the networking field also..
Step 0: IT Career Success Step 1: Network+ Step 2: CCNA RnS Step 3: CCNA Cyber Ops (6 million new jobs in cyber security) Step 4: Network Programing / SDN (Python) Step 5: CCNP RnS Step 6: Choose what you love to do, (data center, RnS, Coll, Security)
@@NetworkChuck that is ok, give to the second person to respond. I already knew his path idea been loosly following it for a year now. He added in Network+ through. His IT Career success is what helped me get the current job I have. I am kind all over the place on his list. Got a IT degree, then a job in a Data Center for the goverement, the Security+. Learn python in school and countied my networking python wiht David B. Now working towards my CCENT.
I’ll say this for my situation and why I am starting with Network plus after my A+. I started studying CCENT and as I got further into it. I was just stuck on Stupid. So I asked a Facebook group for advice and was told go study Net plus. Been studying it now for a couple weeks and I’m ready to go take the test. I feel like for my situation as a career changer to this industry it was not only important but necessary. To get the ball rolling and to get confidence heading back into CCENT.
I used 100% Kevin Wallace CCNA Routing and Switching on safari books and scored a 890 on icnd1 and 890 on icnd2. Thanks Kevin. I also used Routersim for my labs. Those where my ONLY 2 study resources. HIGHLY recommend Kevin Wallace CCNA course
I do suggest the Network+ for anyone entering the field. I took it after the A+ and for some reason I just got really excited in networking. Got a networking support job. Moved my way up. I Went N+ > CCENT > CCNA > CCNP (RS). To be a master you must understand fundamental bare bones knowledge. I am (hopefully) accepting a Network Engineer role this coming week.
Thank you chuck, i'm trying so hard within the IT field. I wish you had more sub's your explanations and information i listen to like podcasts. I've decided instead of colledge straight to a job, i'm going to go to university and learn networking and programming to learn how to get into SDN. Without your videos i feel like i would have gone into this industry blind. So thank you again!
I like how at about 18:00 they start talking about the ccie not being everything in your career. I'm quite happy with my three CCNAs and don't really have a desire to go for the ccie or ccnp, at least right now. I'll go for another CCNA in about a year as my current ones get closer to expiring. Plus I have a lot of fun on the side, I have a full-time IT job, plus I race triathlon/duathlon, running, swimming, and cycling.
I absolutely love Kevin! The way he can present material is fantastic. By far my favorite go to person for training videos. Keep up the awesome material Chuck!
This was such an excellent video. I loved hearing a conflicting opinion. It makes a lot of sense to get the general AND the specific knowledge and if it makes you better at your job, you make more money. Awesome video!
Some great food for thought. I really enjoy the interviews with other established individuals in the field, really gives perspective on all the avenues one can pursue. Thanks Chuck!
A great video man. I subscribed because of this. Answers question an advisor can't at career training course. I am proud to watch this. Now I know which direction to go
I have: Security+, CCNA RS, and MCSA Server 2012. This is the best group of certs to have as it is accepted (and in some cases) required amongst many jobs at the beginner to lower intermediate level. This group of certs together will qualify you for around 70% of jobs within the DoD/private contracting world. This is coming from a former Marine turned IT military private contractor.
Thinking about the same path except ccna security. Msca....what do i do first? Microsoft paths are so confusing. Bare in mind i have just a+ and ccent now . Taking icnd2 this coming thrusday and motivation is wanning. But luckily chuck post this up and i have a little more pep in my step today. Been a long 5 months journey from zero to almost ccna. Just got hired too as help desk. I wanna take 2019 by horns and wondering what i need next assuming passing my NA this coming week. Leaning towards NA security since only one more exam and then NP R*S 2019 to 2020. And of course Microsoft.
Currently in the military and also looking to go DoD. I've had my A+ for years but never got the opportunity to expand on it. Now that I'm at a shore command I have time. I'm looking to get my Sec + then go into a more focus driven Cisco path. With A+ you're basically a 1AT Level 1. I'm trying to be at the very least level 2.

@@jerseysama ...... Complete your idnd2 so that you have completed your CCNA RS. After, complete your CCNA Security; just know it holds the same weight as Security+ (even on the DoD side).

If that is not an option for you, then you can go and complete your MCSA Server next after your complete your icnd2.

Job looking for, I decided to send for a testing period my cv explaining employers something easy. An IT Expert (either network or pc builder) is at 10 out of 10. From my working experience, I am at about 4-5 out of 10. Sitting on a chair, watching youtube videos or reading google search ebooks, pdfs, docs or other IT notes may help a novice begin, and sb as me (5/10) go just a little farther to a small better stage. The only way to progress from that point is through the experience of building PCs or networks, encountering problems and making mistakes, and figuring out how to solve them. There is no school out there that will teach sb to recognize when a BIOS or driver update might solve the problem exists... Or why the PC won't post anymore after you removed the GPU to test something on another PC, and returned it back in... Or what I may solve in a network trouble using ping or ipconfig... This is just a couple of examples, as there are numerous scenarios sb will get into while building PCs or networks, and, although doing google search will be helpful, there will also be times when hardware/network knowledge I gained in the process, will be necessary to recognize what is causing the problem. I guess sending this at main body of mail in my cv sending won't be helpful, but I know that, if an employer call me for an interview after reading this, will be truly responsible and serious.
I'm CCNA and I watched Jeremy's CCNP and BGP videos 2 years ago and then I remembered back then that CCNA has BGP injected into it. I had the same reaction I'm like WTF cisco? I had that reaction when I just finished watching Jeremy's CCNP series cu'z while I still have a long way to go to grasp it, I already get the "big picture" and that is why the more I think of it, the more I realize what is cisco's reason for including it on the CCNA R&S cert? Why don't they just move that monstrous thing into CCNA service provider and leave R&S alone??? Edit: I finished the whole video of Chuck and I agree with Kevin 100%. There are elements in CCNP track especially their L3 switches and the awesomeness of cisco switches and what they can offer as a whole that are not covered in CCNA (which they have gone with the fat BGP which would not make sense for an associate level cert but would make absolutely more sense with the pro level one). Also, turn on subtitles and watch 13:51
Quick news for ya, Chuck. You mentioned at 21:07 about no certification for network programmability. I've found a few on Cisco's site recently that look interesting, and I wanted to make sure you knew about 'em! They've the: Cisco Network Programmability Design and Implementation Specialist 300-550 NPDESI Cisco Network Programmability Developer Specialist 300-560 NPDEV Cheers! =]
If you plan on getting the CCNA it seems to me that the better option is to study the Net+ material plus the CCENT material and just pay for the ICND1 exam. No?
Hey NetworkChuck, I have been watching the videos for quite a while and I enjoy all of them. Since freshman year of high school I knew I wanted to go into IT/CyberSecurity. I am currently studying for my bachelors degree with UMUC for Computer Networks and CyberSecurity. With my university we are taking classes that prepare us for industry certs. I have received a full time IT/Computer job and I wanted to know if you had any advice on how to approach the interview as I currently hold no certifications. Thanks NetworkChuck!
I really recommend people taking CCENT then CCNA, you have to get stuff from CCENT really really familiar before you go on. And I believe some employer prefer interviewee with both CCENT and CCNA than a person with only CCNA. The meaning is really different over here.
Is CCENT for help desk jobs? I don't get it why I need those certifications. Why are they so important? When you have those certifications, are you ready for your jobs or something?
If you are going for a CCIE, think of yourself as a regular electronic engineer. In other words 4 years of intense college. Thats what an engineer in the classical sense, time wise, has to study.
Is it weird that I got my CCNA and A+ but haven't had any interviews after applying to like over 30 places? I think it's cause of no experience (I'm jumping into this from a completely unrelated field/industry). But I can't just keep doing more and more certs (largely theoretical knowledge) without actual applying some of it in a work setting... Hm.
@@BradleyCTurner I've been in the field for over two years now (started at entry level general MSP helpdesk IT but working up to something more specialized. Going to try to move to a new job soon
@@the3rdchannel839 I got my first job in the field about a month or two after I typed that comment, four years ago. I worked at an MSP for almost three years (not the most fun place tbh) and then moved to a job specifically about Cisco networking, although I also do other general IT here too. This job is a bit more open-ended and less structured due to the nature of the org, and I don't have a team I can really talk to, but otherwise it's not bad.
Hey Chuck, love your channel. It's really provided a lot of encouragement for me to work towards my CCENT and beyond. The link you provided to the Blueprint for IT success takes me to the website, but when I try to log into my account to enroll, it just takes me to my course library without adding it on. The website won't allow me to enroll into it. I know that it's not your personal website, but is there a way to try to get this corrected? Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
I was going for computer science last year and this year I switched to MIS and I'm trying to get my CCNA as well. What can I do to know and learn more about cyber security or cyber ops. My overall goal is to end up at a cybersecurity position. What should be my steps? NOTE: I am currently a junior majoring in MIS, Right now I am taking the first of 4 internetworking courses my school offers!
Hey Network Chuck, do you agree with Kevin about getting the Network plus or do you personally think the Ccent is the way to go and bypass the network plus?
I think it depends on you. If you compare the exam topics between Network+ and CCENT and notice there are things on the Network+ you might need, I would go for it.
Thanks a lot. Amazing & encouraging as usual. Much respect & appreciation for the valuable information you always share with us. I just want to ask that: Is experience overlooked without certifications? I worked with Cisco R & S for 7 years. I studied the course on my own till mastery. But l didn’t take the exam. Sounds weird but this is my current status. I’m originally an Electronic Engineer. I have a bachelor degree in that. I worked in a data center for 7 years. I have an experience certificate from my previous workplace but not Vendor Certified. So, again I have the practical experience not the certificate. I left my country due to certain circumstances. I’m not recognized in the industry. What should I do? Thanks for your time and appreciate your advise in advance. All respect.
I need help finding different ways to increase my experience level while currently in military. Finding it hard to get experience when they pull you away from it to increase retention. Currently working towards ccna but I'm not in an area with a lot of IT jobs available
Hey network chuck! Do you have any videos you could point me too on how to deal with interviews. I have my ccent and comptia A+ and just can not get a job
Same boat but just got hired as help desk in school district. Entry level but we all start somewhere. My interview....could have been better executed but i think my intent to continue growing as a tech sealed the deal for me. Express that adamantly. Icnd2 this coming thrus...wish me luck.
I think he said it backwards. Networking is the foundation of security.. Without a network, you can't have security. Without security, you can still have a netwok.
Can somebody please help me! So I'm new to Networking and I know a good amount but I want some advise/help. I'm currently studying for my Network+ and then want to pursue my CCNA. I have a textbook but I need help finding a good video series and lab for Network+! I really want to make sure I pass my test! Any help or advise in the industry would be greatly appreciated! I love Networking!
Hey chuck I was thinking of applying to this network engineer course that in 9 months lets me graduate with 9 certifications. They are A+, Network+, security+, linux+, MCTS, MCSA and the CIOS and the CSIS. You think it's worth it?
I asked someone for a video that will give me some knowledge in IT before I decide what I want to do. I love tech and yet I don’t understand anything they are saying :/
I despise cli anyone who says they would rather a cli vs a gui that does the same just wants to make them look smarter. And on this front Cisco is far behind competitors on that front. Imo
I'm graduating with my BS in Computers/Business in Spring 2019. I've considered my MSIS after, does a Cyber Security MS make more sense? Or get certifications?
I did get my Master's right after my bachelors before getting into certifications, but this was back in the early 2000s. This is an analogy I like, certification expire or become technologically absolutely over time If you have a degree, you will always have that degree.
I haven't gotten certifications because my employer doesn't pay for them, they pay for tuition. So that is the path I chose, I haven't ever had enough extra money to use on certifications.
I've heard that approach also, I've considered getting a home lab just to tinker with, and pursue my certifications then. Like you said degrees you always have, certifications you have to re-apply every few years. Its a money racket either way.
@@josephbragdon1316 use that tuition reimbursement man, that's free money. Once you have a degree you always will have a degree, degrees do not expire. In a lot of cases the employer just want to see that you have X level degree. If they're looking for someone with a bachelor's degree, and you have a bachelor's degree in accounting that's good enough even for an IT technology job.

Or why the PC won't post anymore after you removed the GPU to test something on another PC, and returned it back in... Or what I may solve in a network trouble using ping or ipconfig... This is just a couple of examples, as there are numerous scenarios sb will get into while building PCs or networks, and, although doing google search will be helpful, there will also be times when hardware/network knowledge I gained in the process, will be necessary to recognize what is causing the problem. I guess sending this at main body of mail in my cv sending won't be helpful, but I know that, if an employer call me for an interview after reading this, will be truly responsible and serious.
I'm CCNA and I watched Jeremy's CCNP and BGP videos 2 years ago and then I remembered back then that CCNA has BGP injected into it. I had the same reaction I'm like WTF cisco? I had that reaction when I just finished watching Jeremy's CCNP series cu'z while I still have a long way to go to grasp it, I already get the "big picture" and that is why the more I think of it, the more I realize what is cisco's reason for including it on the CCNA R&S cert? Why don't they just move that monstrous thing into CCNA service provider and leave R&S alone???
Edit: I finished the whole video of Chuck and I agree with Kevin 100%. There are elements in CCNP track especially their L3 switches and the awesomeness of cisco switches and what they can offer as a whole that are not covered in CCNA (which they have gone with the fat BGP which would not make sense for an associate level cert but would make absolutely more sense with the pro level one).
Also, turn on subtitles and watch 13:51

WOW I already have kevins CCNA videos. ❤❤
Hey man....I would appreciate if you share it with me..... please..... networking is all about sharing
Kasun bro u sharing ?
I REALLY enjoyed this video.
Chuck please take care of your ID hanger cuz i couldn't help myself but being focused on how wrong it looks 😂
Just out of curiosity, what certifications is Kevin talking about when he says "IEs" and "DPs" around the 2:15 mark?
Whenever I hear them talk about cyber obs or cyber security I smile future looking bright ladies and gentlemen
it was really Good Advice, Thanks NetworkChuck and Kevin Wallace
Quick news for ya, Chuck. You mentioned at 21:07 about no certification for network programmability. I've found a few on Cisco's site recently that look interesting, and I wanted to make sure you knew about 'em! They've the:
Cisco Network Programmability Design and Implementation Specialist
300-550 NPDESI
Cisco Network Programmability Developer Specialist
300-560 NPDEV
Cheers! =]
If you plan on getting the CCNA it seems to me that the better option is to study the Net+ material plus the CCENT material and just pay for the ICND1 exam. No?
Possibly. But it will take you longer. Not a bad approach though.
Been studying for my CCNA Security after the R & S, now Kev is saying go CyberOps? Hmm not sure if I should switch now?
You've both outdone yourselves.
Hey NetworkChuck,
I have been watching the videos for quite a while and I enjoy all of them. Since freshman year of high school I knew I wanted to go into IT/CyberSecurity. I am currently studying for my bachelors degree with UMUC for Computer Networks and CyberSecurity. With my university we are taking classes that prepare us for industry certs. I have received a full time IT/Computer job and I wanted to know if you had any advice on how to approach the interview as I currently hold no certifications. Thanks NetworkChuck!
You guys give me hope ! Thanks for the video

Guys, you're great! Thank you :)
...
I really recommend people taking CCENT then CCNA, you have to get stuff from CCENT really really familiar before you go on. And I believe some employer prefer interviewee with both CCENT and CCNA than a person with only CCNA. The meaning is really different over here.
I totally agree.
Is CCENT for help desk jobs? I don't get it why I need those certifications. Why are they so important? When you have those certifications, are you ready for your jobs or something?
If you are going for a CCIE, think of yourself as a regular electronic engineer.
In other words 4 years of intense college. Thats what an engineer in the classical sense, time wise, has to study.
Love this guy.. You have any session with Keith Bogart?..
Is it weird that I got my CCNA and A+ but haven't had any interviews after applying to like over 30 places? I think it's cause of no experience (I'm jumping into this from a completely unrelated field/industry). But I can't just keep doing more and more certs (largely theoretical knowledge) without actual applying some of it in a work setting... Hm.
Hows it going now?
@@BradleyCTurner I've been in the field for over two years now (started at entry level general MSP helpdesk IT but working up to something more specialized. Going to try to move to a new job soon
@@addylupe5997 how is it going can you give updates 😊
@@the3rdchannel839 I got my first job in the field about a month or two after I typed that comment, four years ago. I worked at an MSP for almost three years (not the most fun place tbh) and then moved to a job specifically about Cisco networking, although I also do other general IT here too. This job is a bit more open-ended and less structured due to the nature of the org, and I don't have a team I can really talk to, but otherwise it's not bad.
Thank you , really inspirational
I think Security+ is far more recognized than CyberOps from Cisco at this moment.
Network+ is better than CCENT but CCNA is better than Network+. Am I right? if no then plz elaborate!
Hey Chuck, love your channel. It's really provided a lot of encouragement for me to work towards my CCENT and beyond.
The link you provided to the Blueprint for IT success takes me to the website, but when I try to log into my account to enroll, it just takes me to my course library without adding it on. The website won't allow me to enroll into it.
I know that it's not your personal website, but is there a way to try to get this corrected? Any help you can provide would be much appreciated.
This video is really helpful.
Everything routes and switches. Thats gotta be made into a thing.
I was going for computer science last year and this year I switched to MIS and I'm trying to get my CCNA as well. What can I do to know and learn more about cyber security or cyber ops. My overall goal is to end up at a cybersecurity position. What should be my steps? NOTE: I am currently a junior majoring in MIS, Right now I am taking the first of 4 internetworking courses my school offers!
CCNA Security vs. CCNA Cyber Ops? A video on the difference
This is a well needed video!
Hi Chuck, awesome interview btw, have a question, I'm planning to pursue my Master's in Cybersecurity , should I do that and study to get my certs?
I live in Karachi Pakistan and I like your comment send 10 month ago
Is cyber security master from Aydin university good??
Hey Network Chuck, do you agree with Kevin about getting the Network plus or do you personally think the Ccent is the way to go and bypass the network plus?
I think it depends on you. If you compare the exam topics between Network+ and CCENT and notice there are things on the Network+ you might need, I would go for it.
Thanks a lot. Amazing & encouraging as usual. Much respect & appreciation for the valuable information you always share with us.
I just want to ask that: Is experience overlooked without certifications?
I worked with Cisco R & S for 7 years. I studied the course on my own till mastery. But l didn’t take the exam. Sounds weird but this is my current status. I’m originally an Electronic Engineer. I have a bachelor degree in that. I worked in a data center for 7 years. I have an experience certificate from my previous workplace but not Vendor Certified. So, again I have the practical experience not the certificate. I left my country due to certain circumstances. I’m not recognized in the industry. What should I do?
Thanks for your time and appreciate your advise in advance.
All respect.
I need help finding different ways to increase my experience level while currently in military. Finding it hard to get experience when they pull you away from it to increase retention. Currently working towards ccna but I'm not in an area with a lot of IT jobs available
Awesome!! Now add cloud!!! :)
Thank you sir

Hi Chuck! I'm a new subscriber! Love your channel. Have you tried ITPro TV before for IT resources and education. What do you think about that site?
people what is the most important ccna security or ccna cyper ops ??
According to what you have seen, which language would you suggest to learn Phyton or Perl?
Python
Thank you so much.
Was anyone able to get the "Your IT Career Success Blueprint"? When I signed up it said processing but gave me the Subnetting course instead.
Hey network chuck! Do you have any videos you could point me too on how to deal with interviews. I have my ccent and comptia A+ and just can not get a job
Same boat but just got hired as help desk in school district. Entry level but we all start somewhere. My interview....could have been better executed but i think my intent to continue growing as a tech sealed the deal for me. Express that adamantly. Icnd2 this coming thrus...wish me luck.
I want to get my CCIE SECURITY CERTIFICATION.....Do i also have to get other certs or just go through their trainings????
I think he said it backwards. Networking is the foundation of security.. Without a network, you can't have security. Without security, you can still have a netwok.
Can somebody please help me! So I'm new to Networking and I know a good amount but I want some advise/help. I'm currently studying for my Network+ and then want to pursue my CCNA. I have a textbook but I need help finding a good video series and lab for Network+! I really want to make sure I pass my test! Any help or advise in the industry would be greatly appreciated! I love Networking!
Hey chuck I was thinking of applying to this network engineer course that in 9 months lets me graduate with 9 certifications. They are A+, Network+, security+, linux+, MCTS, MCSA and the CIOS and the CSIS. You think it's worth it?
You run the risk of appearing over qualified to employers
Too many certs
Small experience
How long is being too long in the same job?
I did not get his course 6 success ...
where can i get that starting music ?? anyonee
I asked someone for a video that will give me some knowledge in IT before I decide what I want to do. I love tech and yet I don’t understand anything they are saying :/
So guys after my A+ should a get my network+ ora my CCNA routing and switch??
Net+
@@JonathanIsrael708 can you explained why?
@@piedmont9391 because its good for general networking on a broad scale, aka good foundation, which I assume you don't have (could be wrong).

Who's here in 2023!
I despise cli anyone who says they would rather a cli vs a gui that does the same just wants to make them look smarter. And on this front Cisco is far behind competitors on that front. Imo
I'm graduating with my BS in Computers/Business in Spring 2019. I've considered my MSIS after, does a Cyber Security MS make more sense? Or get certifications?
I did get my Master's right after my bachelors before getting into certifications, but this was back in the early 2000s.
This is an analogy I like, certification expire or become technologically absolutely over time If you have a degree, you will always have that degree.
I haven't gotten certifications because my employer doesn't pay for them, they pay for tuition. So that is the path I chose, I haven't ever had enough extra money to use on certifications.
I've heard that approach also, I've considered getting a home lab just to tinker with, and pursue my certifications then. Like you said degrees you always have, certifications you have to re-apply every few years. Its a money racket either way.
@@josephbragdon1316 use that tuition reimbursement man, that's free money. Once you have a degree you always will have a degree, degrees do not expire. In a lot of cases the employer just want to see that you have X level degree. If they're looking for someone with a bachelor's degree, and you have a bachelor's degree in accounting that's good enough even for an IT technology job.
Don’t worry about MS degree. As long as you have the BS degree and a cert(s), most employers will take notice
Why is your beard shining
Kevin's also got some good weed
lol, I have 3 RS, security and voice. and all of it, I took it with certcorrect. And ccie is just fency and annoying test.
Lol just listening to this just makes me feel kinda dumb man, makes me wonder if IT is for me smh
Naw CISSP or security + has more weight than all these late bloomer cisco security certs
