To give you my background, I have been working in the IT field for the past 3 years now. I have held various roles like VDI Engineer, Storage Engineer, Sysadmin, and Virtualization engineer. I have completed my CompTIA A+ (220-901&902, CompTIA Networking+, CompTIA Cloud Essentials, CompTIA CloudPlus, Information Storage Associate Version 2 (EMCISA), Data Center Virtualization (VCP6-DCV), VCE Certified Converged Infrastructure Associate (VCE-CIA) so far.

CompTIA is a global provider for IT Certification. It is mostly for entry-level students or anyone who is new to the IT field. CompTIA courses basically gives your the building block to get your foot in the IT industry and helps you to be more confident to be able to move on to other higher level certificates that are more field specific. After getting your ComPTIA certification, you will receive the logo and your certification. In order to best utilize your certification, you can attach it to your resume in Linkedin profile or on any other job search portal. A year ago when I was in the market looking for my next project, I saw that most of the entry level requirements required a CompTIA certification. There are a lot of other certification that are available which I will be telling you about in my next blogs. So please feel free to follow me and Upvote my post if you like these types of blogs from me which would encourage me to write more about it. Hope this information helps you get started.

Just letting you know that I am not here to advertise about CompTIA. I do not work for them. I though the certifications were pretty useful and is recognized globally so wanted to share it with you all. If you would like to get started training then go to Groupon and you can find a cheap online training CompTIA bundle which will save you a lot of money. There are also lot of other sites that I found very useful for training in various subjects in IT field. You can get your training from for example
