Yes (minus CEH although it will probably get you through HR in some places).

I have over 24 years in Cybersecurity, including several years managing SOC teams, ranging from IDS/IPS sensors, SIEM and content management to threat hunting. I must say, this is a pretty solid list, with a couple of comments. I'm continually disappointed that CEH is considered a valuable certification for people that are not specifically gearing towards penetration testing or vulnerability management. All too often I interviewed someone with that as their primary cert and they were not suitable for anything but an every level Incident Handling or Information Assurance position (no tangible understanding or skills) where I'd be just as happy hiring someone with just a Sec+ for the same roles. I was surprised that an Incident Handler certification didn't make the list, considering how important that role is within a SOC. I guess the pay scale was below the cut line?
Thank you!! Really appreciate your insight and thoughts!! Yes good point it definitely could've been added in. I was trying to create a list that touched on many peoples career paths (security, project manager etc..) but if I was to do another video would definitely add it in. Thank you again!

The next logical step in your CompTIA path is the CySA+. I would recommend putting in a little study time with the Network+ material, as some of those concepts will help with passing the CySA+ & CASP+.
Thanks so much Tiffany I was shock Data Science, Tech Sales and Sales Engineer was not on this list. Could you make a video if these 3 are a good choices
Good point. There isn't really tech certification for Tech Sales. But def for sales engineers. Tech Sales pays higher than most of these tech certs too.
I have 7 of those certs icluding the top one and I am qualified to teach them. Certs alone are not worth much, they are a door opener. Even then you are not the only one that has them. Experience is worth its weight in gold in IT. Certs + Experience is optimal.
Currently going for the Microsoft SC-100 (after obtaining the AZ-700 & AZ-500) Microsoft security is currently high in demand here in my region (West-Europe). I started with AWS and then got told it's just not that sought after by the company i was working for. So there's a big diff between the US and EU.
PMP comments: For me, having 20 years experience as an IT Project Manager having a PMP gives me nothing. No one is going to give me $5 - $10 more an hour for a PMP. Just isn't going to happen. Most PMPs I've known are relatively new to project management and don't know ITIL from a risk from a hole in the ground.
When something is in demand, then it is not in demand anymore. The field moves too fast to the point you set down, someone pull the chair underneath you. Then when you're about to fall. Someone put a chair back underneath you. That's why my friend left his IT job that paid him $130k a year for the law force that pay him $65k a year. A big step back.
I have seen that in Telecom too. You have to find a way to keep up with the in demand certifications. Notice Cisco isnt even hardly mentioned anymore not too long ago that was the gold standard of certifications
No certificate can make you as happy as eating a carrot or a cucumber everytime you drink coffee or chocolate instead. Eating cucumbers/carrot may lead to many potential health benefits, including weight loss, balanced hydration, digestive regularity and lower blood sugar levels.
I’m a bit surprised that you didn’t list ANY networking certs. Most of what you covered is useless without a good network. Either Juniper or Cisco will work as they are comparable and both well known.
@@kioskekagure4758 I get what you mean but virtualization has real limits. A LAN within a cloud can be virtualized but to move data to another physical location requires actual physical paths and equipment. You have to pulse light on a fiber, electricity on a wire or radio waves through the air. SDN changes the skills needed to run a network but not the need for one.
Passing a certification is one thing, to be able to understand what are these technologies for, and apply the appropriate knowledge to your work is anothering. Personally I managed to pass Azure Solution Architrct Expert in 2 weeks, and all the certifications mentioned here takes silimar amont of effort, if not less, since it's just a bunch of multiple choice questions and you could buy question packs and sail through it. The most time consuming cert I went through so far is the CCIE, which requires lab exam on a real environment with proctors introducing errors in realtime. That one took me almost half a year to prepare and 2 attempts to pass. In any case, get one of two certs could make one look professional, getting 10 different certs is a joke, just imaging the medals on Brezhnev's chest.
Red Hat certifications are also done in labs, so you really need to know what you are doing. And question are related to each other so if you fail one, it might stop you from doing the rest.
I love you videos, they're always straight to the point yet to informative. Can I ask whether these online courses would make our CV stand out to the employers?
Nice provided information regarding cloud core project, cloud digital leader, cloud infrastructure and etc. I want to know from you whether these above said posts in cloud technology also are required in government sector as employee or only private sector. I am best viewer in UA-cam constantly watching and waiting your video, thanks a lot.May God bless you! I am from India
The PMP used to require many years of Project Management work experience and IIRC you cannot substitute other work for it. It had to be work as a project manager. AND I know a guy who got the cert and they "audited him" after they accepted his money for the cert but before they allowed him to take the test (which is pretty shady if you ask me). He had to get former bosses to submit, in writing, validation or affidavits for his previous work history.
Tiffany. Question Will IBM AI certification enable the individual to work on non IBM AI? Same with AWS Solutions Architect? MS DevOps Engineer? Google Cloud? Thanks
Even a Univ degree is merely the basic framework. A certificate is next to nothing when it comes to stem. Unless what you are trying to say is about proramming skills, which do not require a lot of study. The max period of time to learn how to write programmes to become a professional programmer is between 1.5 to 2 years
I would imaging CISSP will jump up to at least #3 and maybe even #1 by next year if not the end of this one, simply due to AI which CISSP does have a domain for.
you left out Advanced PE Cert! For those of us who do not specifically want to do everything you mentioned above, prompt engineering (the REAL ones, not the bs ones I see offered) is invaluable! I was kind of afraid and intimidated by AI, as I am a "GenX" pharmacognosist 🙃 but I took a PE cert course by JMGPT and actually just built my own research assistant!
I tried the "IBM AI Engineering Professional Certificate" but could not complete it because it requires assignments that depend on third party ressources for which the links do not work
AI and Kubernetess related certifications? Designing and Implementing a Microsoft Azure AI Solution TensorFlow Developer Certificate Kubernetes Certified Application Developer (CKAD)?
Nice list, but AWS is really the gold standard to have as your core, whether as a developer, solutions architect or security person, and it should have been higher on the list in my opinion. There's not a single cert you can place on your resume that has more recognition broadly than an AWS one. Yes Google and Microsoft are gaining market share but it's still an AWS world out there.
Have to disagree. Azure is the way if you are starting as you can branch out into the whole Azure and Microsoft 365 sides. And please tell me how you can get higher than first place? By the way, if you arer looking for wide-spread recognition, you need to be AliBaba certified as it is the largest customer based cloud provider.
@Tiff In Tech, do you have a video on the best or top Networking certifications? Not sure if i'm asking that right but i'm looking to change my career and i was looking at going into Networking. Not sure where to start but, any help or advice you have would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
What she left out is experience and degrees, in addition to certifications you have. If you think you are going to make anywhere close to six figures with a cert alone, it ain't gonna happen. 😶
@Jay Jay even at an entry-level position, companies want intermediate skill level....not beginner level? It use to be companies accept those with beginner level abilities and just train them for 4 weeks or so. Things changed alot.
Most of those certs assume or require that you have job experience, which also Baseline certifications are things like Security+ or Network+ (depending on your career trajectory). These will generally be acceptable for entry level positions and no job experience. I have hired several people with no work experience and just the certifications I mentioned
@@TheDisBeat starting salaries for Sec+ are in to $50k-$60k range. The average base salary though is around $80k (that's usually with a few years experience). The Net+ are in the $45k-$55k range with the average base around $75k, again, with experience for that average base.
hello. worked four years for apple tech support..I could pass their exam in my sleep...the tech exam for apple is it worth paying $150 for? and also I have the google coursera data analytics certificate 2 times...//should I go to grad school in cybersecurity? get the AWS-certified solutions architect? I have years of tech support experience various employers//still work for apple though
So to value your opinion, how many of these certs do you actually have to base your opinions on? Your info to the AWS SA Professional is also incorrect.
As someone who wants to enter into TEch. Where should I start from before I can start with any of these. I need to know the basics. Can anyone help me please. Will be very much appreciated.
Sorry to hear that! It is touching every industry. But the good news is there are lots of other things you can dive into with the knowledge youve learned!
Not sure what you're asking. Are you asking about programming in general with things like assembly, and compilers or are you asking about Unix architecture or system programming?
Be careful, if you only have a cert. and zero experience or other knowledge, you won't be making anywhere near these salaries, it takes years in the IT field to gain the knowledge to get to these levels.
Is there anything I should learn or gain a basic understanding before obtaining these certs? I’m in Tech sales and wondering what would be most useful for me
Back in my day *cough* Cisco cert was the golden ticket. You can see how much they faded. Glad I never followed up the VOIP track I was on at one point. I just let the CCNA expire, then I'd sit it again. That and my experience was enough. CCNA exam has really changed over time, I'd almost take it again just to see what it is now. Nah Anyhow you kids, cloud and security, that's the sh*t. Linux admins will always be in demand. Know that CLI, play with your Raspberry Pi rigs, and you'll never lack for a job.
This was helpful however certificates alone will NOT get you in the door. I have a CompTIA security + and I completed a cybersecurity boot camp. I’m not getting any leads in cybersecurity or compliance. I’m currently unemployed. I’m not getting anymore certs until I’m hired.
Hey, I’m looking into getting my Security + cert but i have no degree or job experience in IT. My background is in administrative work. Do you recommend taking it without any prior knowledge? If you have any other recommendations or advice Im all ears! Sending you good wishes that you will find something soon 🤞🏼
Especially in security, experience is what you need. Try to get an internship or offer to work on a project for free to gain experince that you can list on a CV.

Thank goodness. I graduate from Amazons AWS CCP course and take the exam in next 2 weeks 🤞🏼
I agree.
How’d the exam go Bill?
She literally put an AWS certification top
Have to disagree. Azure is the way if you are starting as you can branch out into the whole Azure and Microsoft 365 sides. And please tell me how you can get higher than first place? By the way, if you arer looking for wide-spread recognition, you need to be AliBaba certified as it is the largest customer based cloud provider.
It was a much required video as it's so confusing out there when you actually have numerous courses out there.
Definitely! Glad it was helpful
Description of CISSP is totally wrong as it is more of a management certification. Hope this otherwise great video gets updated.
Thank you
Good video. Thank you
@Tiff In Tech, do you have a video on the best or top Networking certifications? Not sure if i'm asking that right but i'm looking to change my career and i was looking at going into Networking. Not sure where to start but, any help or advice you have would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
What she left out is experience and degrees, in addition to certifications you have.
If you think you are going to make anywhere close to six figures with a cert alone, it ain't gonna happen. 😶
Is it possible to obtain an entry-level position in tech with no degree but a tech certification?
@@catmouse2882 Possible.. But you have to apply more and show Intermediate level skills!
@Jay Jay even at an entry-level position, companies want intermediate skill level....not beginner level?
It use to be companies accept those with beginner level abilities and just train them for 4 weeks or so.
Things changed alot.
Hi, I'm from São Paulo! Excelente com sempre!
Hi!! So happy you are here :)
@@TiffInTech Yeah! Thanks so much ! Já sou muito fã!
I’m curious, if you were a hiring manager, which of these certs, if any, would be enough for you to hire someone without a degree?
Most of those certs assume or require that you have job experience, which also
Baseline certifications are things like Security+ or Network+ (depending on your career trajectory). These will generally be acceptable for entry level positions and no job experience.
I have hired several people with no work experience and just the certifications I mentioned
@@kiltsandcomputers interesting. What are average starting salaries for these positions?
@@TheDisBeat starting salaries for Sec+ are in to $50k-$60k range. The average base salary though is around $80k (that's usually with a few years experience). The Net+ are in the $45k-$55k range with the average base around $75k, again, with experience for that average base.
My only problem with Coursera. Their courses are so old and hasn't been updated frequently. Other than that, you don't get any more quality than that
Intelligently run H.R.'s never, NEVER hire by certificates. ONLY by EXTENSIVE testing as part of the job interview process.
CCNA, CCSP, throw in a cloud cert, gg.
She listed at least 3 cloud certifications and none of the ones you mentioned are cloud specfic.
Can someone list the certs mentioned in this video?
I just added time stamps!
Working on my Google (PMP) Certification
hello. worked four years for apple tech support..I could pass their exam in my sleep...the tech exam for apple is it worth paying $150 for? and also I have the google coursera data analytics certificate 2 times...//should I go to grad school in cybersecurity? get the AWS-certified solutions architect? I have years of tech support experience various employers//still work for apple though
Bachelor's in Computer Science or related engineering field with 5+ years of experience.
Please make video about what's advantages of Al in tech
What specifically? How to use AI in tech? :)
@@TiffInTech what's use of Al in tech👏
I do have a CEH V11 so what do you reckon I do next?
So to value your opinion, how many of these certs do you actually have to base your opinions on? Your info to the AWS SA Professional is also incorrect.
A hacking certification is above a Microsoft Architect (requires multiple certs too), dunno about that
I'm assuming this is for people with a couple of years of IT experience. None of these are entry level.
As someone who wants to enter into TEch. Where should I start from before I can start with any of these. I need to know the basics. Can anyone help me please. Will be very much appreciated.
This The OA S3 episode is epic.
Could you post the links to these certs? Thanks
Yes forsure Rudy!! I will do that by tomorrow morning. Ill ping you once they are linked :)
@@TiffInTech thank you, much appreciated! I'll be looking out for that
I'm going to school for Networking + Cybersecurity and honestly am starting to hate tech.
Sorry to hear that! It is touching every industry. But the good news is there are lots of other things you can dive into with the knowledge youve learned!
Do you know anything about any books that explain the root of all coding. Basics structure of shells.
Not sure what you're asking. Are you asking about programming in general with things like assembly, and compilers or are you asking about Unix architecture or system programming?
@@catocall7323 I try the basic how it's made from the beginning. I just need a deeper understanding how. Code is build step by step
Is Unity good for career plz reply ?
Nice
Hi, I need an advise. I'm planning on doing the oracle java certification. Is it worth doing it and spending my money on. Please guide.
What about Google Data Analytics professional certification???
Hello please suggest me in hacking is there is any programming required or not ? And please make a separate video on certified ethical hacker roadmap
It helps but not necessary, those who hack and also can code tend to build their own tools, their own malware etc.
Would it be possible to add an specific oracle's certification as part of an honor list ?
What about Website Accessibility Specialist? How does that rate among all the other certifications?
Be careful, if you only have a cert. and zero experience or other knowledge, you won't be making anywhere near these salaries, it takes years in the IT field to gain the knowledge to get to these levels.
Is there anything I should learn or gain a basic understanding before obtaining these certs? I’m in Tech sales and wondering what would be most useful for me
Back in my day *cough* Cisco cert was the golden ticket. You can see how much they faded. Glad I never followed up the VOIP track I was on at one point. I just let the CCNA expire, then I'd sit it again. That and my experience was enough. CCNA exam has really changed over time, I'd almost take it again just to see what it is now. Nah
Anyhow you kids, cloud and security, that's the sh*t.
Linux admins will always be in demand. Know that CLI, play with your Raspberry Pi rigs, and you'll never lack for a job.
Can anyone vouch for a blockchain certification? They seem a bit sketchy
#TYFYS, Tiff :- )
Hope you are having a great day!!
So for you software = tech?
This was helpful however certificates alone will NOT get you in the door. I have a CompTIA security + and I completed a cybersecurity boot camp. I’m not getting any leads in cybersecurity or compliance. I’m currently unemployed. I’m not getting anymore certs until I’m hired.
Hey, I’m looking into getting my Security + cert but i have no degree or job experience in IT. My background is in administrative work.
Do you recommend taking it without any prior knowledge?
If you have any other recommendations or advice Im all ears!
Sending you good wishes that you will find something soon 🤞🏼
Especially in security, experience is what you need. Try to get an internship or offer to work on a project for free to gain experince that you can list on a CV.
@@cruzden6140 You need to start off with the basics, Networking, Cloud, Active Directoy, Server environments. How are you going to do IT security if you don't what you are trying to protect and the many ways it can be attacked?
@@tonyme7426 Thanks, i appreciate the response. Are there any resources you know of that would get me familiar with the basics?
Hey tiffany . How are you? 😊
I’m good! Thank you for asking. How have you been?:)
@@TiffInTech I'm good tiff 😊👍 .
I'm getting the Csslp it is like the cissp for web app testing
Hi , but those certificates are free?
Some you can get a small understanding on UA-cam channels, however most you'll have to pay for a legit certificate.
INTRIGUING.😎
hi Madam which camera you using for recording
These certs are ridiculous to obtain these are like bachelor degree certs. How about an easier list. Something more obtainable like the A+?
Hi Tiff, I'm a product designer, do you know any good certifications for that area?
I know there is one called Google UX Design
What about the Kubernetes certifications?
