I don’t have any certs. Can I start with CompTIA Security+, or do I need to start with one of the fundamentals courses?

Do you work in the industry at all?

Comptia A+ is the "entry" cert and it covers a very board range of topics for IT.

I see more and more jobs looking for that as a starting point.

Some concepts for the Security+ may go over your head without at least the Network+.

I recommend getting the "Trifecta" (Comptia A+. Network+ and Security+) then see where you want to go from there in your career.

Maybe this is for another thread but I highly recommend that brehs who plan to take similar courses team up to do it together, it's easy to be held accountable and increase the odds of completing the course this way.

I remember some of the brehs got together to achieve getting the Google certs a ways back.

I recommend this because I've been trying to do this on my own and it's rough with no one to bounce questions and knowledge of off.

Of course. You either pay with money or pay with watching ads.

Home - Professor Messer IT Certification Training - CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+

Is a great dude to watch as well. All free.

Great course notes for like $20 I believe

If you maximize the wealth of knowledge, you have a better chance of passing. I'm offering one avenue, not the end all.

Sometimes one person explains it differently than the other which can help with learning.

Thanks. I was in helpdesk for many years. I just want to get some certs so I have more options. I really don’t wanna go back to doing helpdesk

When you login, they aren't under my courses?

I sign in with a Gmail account, did you sign in using an external account or a Udemy account?
