MCSE A+ with Networking

Uhm, what's an MCSE?

I realize that, if I had to ask, I might not be able to help but just in case.

Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer.

Ah yes, I remember one of my friends mentioning it. Unfortunately, I didn't get much information. All I know is that you can get certified for different OS, like Windows 2000 and Windows Server 2003.

The exams are different for each so I guess, you'd have to know which one is required first of all. Next, the exams deal with things like network security, network structure or architecture, network administration, MS SQL, and a host of other things.

As I said, I haven't much information. The Microsoft website might have more and better info.

Good luck.

get you a deep seat and hang on, iwent to colo. tech for 2 years t get what you are looking for. There is no easy way to get where you wontr to be

Dear RDAVIS,

When did you graduate Colorado Tech? What books did you use? Which books did you find usefull and explained complex structure in a comprehensible manner?

Thanks,

Another idea is to check and see what Amazon.com has for books. Sometimes there are practice tests & such. Border's, Barnes & Noble might be helpful as well. There you can go in browse and see -- before you decide to buy.

I went with http://www.testout.com/. Relatively inexpensive, self paced, and included a bunch of other courses that you need. But if you are in a time crunch, then the "boot camps" as mentioned above are probably best. But it will cost.

i used microsoft's mcse training kit and exam cram training kit. i dont know what your present employment is right now, but you really need to be working in a network environment, or be able to build a network at home(EXPENCIVE)GOOD LUCK hope you make it

If you decide to go in persone to a course the MCSE boot camps have been a great help to many of my techs over the years. They are brutal, pretty spendy, and mentally draining but literally after 6 days the success rate of passing the tests was pretty high (of course these guys were already techs to begin with). I've found there are two different classes. To learn the subject and understand it, or to pass the test. It really depends which your looking for. I can speak from experience though. The MCSE might get you the interview but hiring many techs over my career i've never seen it get somebody the job.

Thanks, but I'm terribly agoraphobic. That's why I'm looking on line. I'm using the Win 2003 server self-paced training kit.
