OK. Where to begin.
I'm ready for a drastic career change. I'm tired of the line of work I'm in right now. Manufacturing Management. The $$ is good, but I'm unhappy as H@ll!
Sat back and thought about what really makes me happy. That was almost a no-brainer once it hit me. What makes us ALL happy that visit this board? Computers! I have always entertained the idea of moving into the IT field. Now I even have the wife behind me on it.
Now on to the reason for this post:
I have looked into a school called computertraining.com . The will certify me in MCP, MCSA, and MCSE. 24 week course, 2 nights a week, 4 hours a night. Attended orientation. They help with resumes, career assist, etc. The catch is the course runs 24K. OUCH!!!!!!
So now looking at local community college.
What certs do you guys have?
College degrees?
Positions?
Would love to ask about salaries, but that is pretty personal........
(would just be looking for what I might expect if that sounds better)
Happy, Hate it?
Man....I don't know. Anything you might think of that could ease my decision making on how to go about this. I definately want to move in this direction, just not absolutely sure how.
Guys...Thanks a million in advance.
I respect opinions of all of you, which is why I'm posting here!
