Any experience with CompTIA or similar certificates?
Looking to work in the IT field, but i can't exactly do that with a high school diploma, and can't afford college.
What are my alternatives?

You could study and take the tests on your own, or if you're poor and under 24 you could try job corps. Honestly a google search could probably have answered all your questions..

So could every question on this board faggot.

Op, I have a CompTIA and did get a temp contract as 1st line support, it was pretty cheap, but it only lasts 3 years now I think.

23. Just googled Job corps, and it is something USA only, and i'm in EU. Seems like its a work-for-experience kind of thing? I don't think i am able to dedicate longer periods of time for something like that if i don't get paid. Rent isn't gona pay itself

Oh so i need to take it every 3 years again, or just renew it pay paying for it again?
Is it even worth it then? Trying to figure out my alternatives here

I took both A+ hardware and software pretty much exactly 15 years ago. They didn't bring any value to me at all: They always struck me as a good way for the average computer owner to get some insight into the inner workings of a computer, but it's not something that is very sought after.

I see, thanks for the insight. So high school plus A+ certificate isn't going to look much better on my resume than just high school is what i got from this.
That sucks since college really isn't an option for me right now, figured this would be a decent alternative that can land me an entry-level job in the field

It would be better to get some Cisco certs with it.
