    Thanks as always. I don't have a degree and I just started my career in IT as Helpdesk last year, now I work as NOC Technician for Voice Networks and I am planning to get CCNA but it is postponed for now since I'm at probation period and the amount of information and learning I need to grasp is alot compared to my helpdesk role before. I'll try studying again for CCNA once I feel more confidence on my work.
    First and second domain alone of CCNA already helped me to answer technical questions for this NOC position and plays a big role for me to easier understand what I'm looking on our monitoring system.
    Your videos guided me alot. ❤

      Yeah College degrees no longer have the same value it had 20 years ago. If you’re a self starter and have a lot of discipline and can follow a set guideline you won’t really need a college degree.

    • @Frissdas1207

      The difference is more often than not, the higher up you go, the more a degree becomes a "requirement." I have been in IT for nearly 20 years and only 1 boss over the course of 7 employers had no degree.

    I, unfortunately, wasted my time on a degree… I’m 75% done with WGU’s BS in IT. If I could do it all over again, since I already have a master’s in an unrelated field, I’d just do certs….

      The certs route works but keep in mind it requires a lot of self discipline and focus. The good thing with a degree is that they give you a plan that you can follow.

      Also is a 3 month internship also good? compared to like a longer one, will companies still appreciate only the 3 month internship.
      Also what do you recommend i specialize in for my third year of IT engineering. I have the option of Cybersecurity, AI , or Software engineering.

    Would a CCNP for a network admin role be too much? I am growing a lot and enjoy my job as a network admin a lot, but want to make sure I don’t stagnate. At the same time, is CCNP overkill?
    Your thoughts?

    • @NetworkWali
      @NetworkWali  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Not one bit! Get your CCNP you’ll increase your skills dramatically and the company you work at will most likely promote you since you’re taking initiative.

      @NetworkWali  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      True CCNP level knowledge is critical but you don't need the cert to be able to land a networking role. I don't even have CCNP yet. You just need to be in the process of studying for it.

    • @E.M1864
      @E.M1864 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I agree. I don't think CCNA is enough for a Network Engineer role. Definitely you'll be able to get a networking role. That's why I'm getting CCNP Because there are skills like BGP and route redistribution that you need that are not on CCNA

    Hello. It's been a while since I followed you. I really like your contents! So here is my question, I am an Assoc. NOC for a while now and I'm training for a Tier 1 position now. We mainly support WAN links and technology such as MPLS and SDWAN. Do you have recommended topics for lab practices so I can keep up with my position?

    • @NetworkWali
      @NetworkWali  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hello Giselle thanks for your kind words. Udemy is my top choice for learning material as that is wha I used to learn. Since you’re doing mainly WAN stuff I’d first work on understanding the fundamentals of LAN first then once you’re comfortable I’d look at learning BGP since that’s a big topic involve in WAN.

      Very true you do not need a degree but some people can find value in it building relationships and networking. But also it gives people a structured plan they can stick to. Going the no degree route while it may be cheaper and faster still requires a lot of self discipline.

      Automation is cutting out the monotonous task that are involved but still whenever things need to get planned network engineers are still needed. In terms of AI it’s true it can take away roles but that’s just what we have to adjust too. Network engineers will always be needed to make sure things are running smoothly.
