There are several certification programs out there.

Microsoft , Novell, Cisco, and RedHat.

CompTIA has the A+ (PC Tech) certification.

You study on your own - or in a class, then schedule

a time and place for the test(s). They cost around

$100 - $125 each (last I checked). Which ones

you take depends on what you want to do. A good starting point would be A+ and an OS or 2. From there, you could study other OS's or Networking OS %26 hardware. A good goal would be 2 certifications a year (and the OS's are much easier to learn if you have a working copy!).

Get your MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) certificate. It only takes about a 8 months to a year. It is kind of expensive to get, so shop around and make sure you do your research to find a good school that has job placement for you after you get your certificate. I think the schooling costs about $8,000, but this probably varies from area to area. Beware of places that are scams, though, where they just go through the motions and focus on you getting certified FAST. You are the one who has to pass all the tests, so if they're just rushing through the information, it won't do you a whole lot of good.
