I have to pay tuition for classes in two days, and after talking to my cousin about our future, I've decided on a career change from business to IT networking. I've always had an interest in working in the IT field, but like many others, thought that the only key to success was graduating from university with a degree in business or science.
I've done a little research on RS, and it seems that most people need at least their CCNA and MCSE certificates along with at least some experiences relateable to the field such as help desk or tech support.
But with that said.. I'm looking at the list of courses at BCIT, and I'm so confused on what exactly I should be taking.. I really want to apply ASAP for September and hope I get in since I don't want to waste a semester when I could be furthering my education.
BCIT : : Computing & IT : : Browse Programs
Should I just start off with the Cisco Certified Network Associate program? My cousin is taking the
Computer Information Technology program, but the intake is closed for this upcoming semester as far I can see.. It says the next intake will be on October 1st, but the program is only offered once per year. I like that the one he is taking has co-op built in, but my program for CCNA is only part-time.
Any helpful insights would be appreciated, thanks.
