I have both A+ and CCNA. Certifications are good for HR guys who have to go over thousands of resumes and don't have the luxury of being able to scan each and every point of a resume. Having certs can quickly put you on the shortlist. Now this is of course not the case all the time, but it sure doesn't hurt to meet more prerequisites rather than less.

I only got my A+ because a lot of employers in the technology-related field ask for it. I definitely do not recommend spending too much time studying, quizzing, and cramming all that A+ stuff in your head. Just download an exam engine and study the actual quiz questions.

CCNA and it's relevance is heavily dependant on the employers you're looking to apply to.
