ABOUT THE NETWORK+
CompTIA is the world leader in vendor-neutral IT certification exams. Every year hundreds of thousands of students take their exams in order to start their IT career or verify knowledge they already possess.
CompTIA certification is highly valued by hundreds of companies and, in fact, many insist on CompTIA qualifications before hiring. Companies such as Apple, Canon, Dell, Fujitsu, HP, IBM, Toshiba, Unisys, and the U.S. Department of Defense will not consider an IT job application without relevant CompTIA certification.
Network+ is the perfect qualification for anybody considering a career in internetworking. It covers many of the basic principles numerous engineers seem to skip, such as subnetting, TCP/IP, troubleshooting, and topologies. These knowledge gaps can cost you dearly in job interviews or when there is a network emergency.
