Is A+ cert pretty useless in 2019?

[Balla]

Tbh man, I do and I don't. I do because some of the concepts I surprisingly already know and we had a "quiz" just to check in and I got a 6/10 and I hardly pay attention. It's a lecture, straight from Comp Tia book so he started with Hardware, hexidecimals, day 2 was Control panel cmd commands etc and goes chapter by chapter. He also wants us to watch Prof Messer videos after class, Today is Troubleshooting.

For me, there's the fact that after I take this class and get two certs I will supposedly be help desk and only make 45k which I currently already make and have been making for like 4 years no growth. I heard the big money is when you get more and more certs. know 45k isn't too bad for the average person but I live in NY and in the hood.

I'm conflicted because I know it's a lucrative field but my attention span, want and need for big income right away is a deterrent

What u do now and how you get that job?

I hear that man, I will from now on, just wish I didn't have such bad habits and had more motivation

Nothing wrong with it man. All of this shyt is boring unless you love it.

I work in non profit to get people in Harlem employment and host workshops etc. my degree is in a shyt major (English) so I was shooting on indeed and got it, before this I was at another non profit, the only thing my degree gets it seems is non profit and teaching and I have no desire to teach that's why I tried to do this tech

At least you got a decent job with your degree, imagine if you didn’t have a degree at all.

I feel you wanting a change though. At least you’re making decent income and can just do these certs without worrying about money too much.

Shouldn’t take long at all to get the certs and start working.

Then before you know it, you’ll be making bank inna few years.

Plus I heard that it’s easier to get in a management position with a degree too.

Word I think Imma stop bytchin and just do this class, the only alternative besides this I think would be grad or law school so I guess this is a way quicker and better option

It depends on how much money you’re trying to earn. A+ isn’t what it use to be when the demand for IT was high. Now a days you will start making under $20 an hour.

coding and network security is where u want to be.

A+ certs are not taken seriously by employers in 2020.

It's absolutely worthwhile if you have no experience and are just starting out in the field.

Not going to make you much money, but it'll help you get your foot in the door with a helpdesk type job. Now if you're years deep in the field then that's different.
