    Has anyone ever done or know of anyone who has done the CISCO course in LIT?

    What kind of jobs can you get out of it? Are there good job prospects?

    I have a degree in languages and a pgrad in an IT related field. I want to go back to college, part-time if possible (keep food on the table!) or evenings.

    I have always been interested in networking, although I have no training or qualifications.

    Its either this or a masters, but I am not sure what I would do as a masters.

    Hi,

    If you do a search in the nets/comm forum there is plenty of info on Cisco coures, exam, books etc..Also I used to work in a large medical company and members of the networking team was sent on training to get the CCNA and CCNP (I think thats what they are called). That may be a good route if you cannot afford to go back to education full time. I think that work exp and the cisco certs you would get would be as good as a college course IMHO.

    Before starting a CCNA its recommended that you have a minimum of either a Network+ certification or two years networking experience.

    Its the lowest rung of the cisco ladder but its not "cisco for beginners", if that makes sense.
