Journey Thread -- BS Cybersecurity
#51
Knocked out A+ 1/2 this morning and finished my first "term" in 5 days. I asked my mentor "what's next?" She said I should go ahead and start studying for the 2nd A+ test. I told her I was ready for it now and asked if she could also open up the scripting and programming class. Those are now scheduled for tomorrow and Sunday, respectively. Barring any failures, I'll have 19CUs completed my first week.

If it's anything like the CIW Web Development cert, you could easily go in cold with basically no background and still come out with a cert... although a cert no one in the industry has ever heard about nor will care for.

But regardless, you're rocking it, like always. Good work.

This. It will not be on my resume. I really wish WGU would just create an in house exam instead of requiring an essentially useless cert.
