Why Get CCNA Certification

That's a good question. And just where CCNA fits into the mix of certifications and resume alphabet soup is another good question. One thing for certain is that certification of any kind is fast becoming the minimum requirement for nearly all IT and Internet related jobs, and it's not unusual for a network administration job to list the CCNA as a minimum requirement. Cisco Systems views CCNA as an excellent entry-level certification that should qualify the holder for a position as a networking technician on a routed or switched network.

Is CCNA better than Network+, or any of the MCSE certifications? It isn't necessarily better, and, in fact, it may be harder, but it's really just different. CCNA certification says something completely different about its holder than any of the other certifications, but then that's the point. The networking world is well aware of the CCNA exam and it's a widely recognized and respected certification.
