Entry Level Computer Certs?
My employer has told me to begin looking for some entry level certifications. Although I'm not sure which route I would like to take. I started with the CCENT. Thought about getting my CCNA. Although I have a very large interest in unix. How difficult are solaris or redhat certifications?
Again... looking for entry level certifications. Any suggestions?

What I see is that you have already done the basics of getting an entry level computer certificate. The next thing to do is work out to become a profession on CISCO networking. If you check CISCO, you will see that there are bunch of certificate courses leading to being a professional. You might want to look into these courses and also look into what your present company needs at the moment. Better continue on a course that CISCO can provide since you have already started with CCENT.
If you think you can deal with the requirements of CCNA, then go ahead and take it. There are many options under this one program. You can take CCNA on Security, Voice and Wireless depending on the need of your employer. I suggest you take voice first since there are so many companies needing this kind of skill.
CCNA is a step closer to becoming a professional (CCNP) and then to becoming an expert (CCIE or CCDE). Read more on the CCNA offers and requirements and see if your skills and knowledge would be enough to cover this course and pass it. Ask your employer what they need most so you can be more motivated to work on such course.
if you are rich enough to support yourself without working, then you can venture into anything including UNIX. Otherwise, concentrate first on what will give you the earnings you need and put your UNIX interest on the sideline. It is always good to have knowledge of UNIX since as of 2010, there are 50 Million desktop by Apple which are certified UNIX system operated. But as of now, big call centers companies all over the world are using the other system and the jobs are mostly from that side.

I have no idea any of those who are not a rip-off (you're taking the eduction with them and then you definately get your possess activity). Most of the ones types of jobs went foreign. If you wish to do "laptop kind paintings" then you definately must get that style of schooling (at your group tuition) after which observe on-line for the exceptional jobs supplied. Unless a corporation (like a financial institution) is aware of you out of your having labored there earlier than in individual, they're going to no longer recognise you good sufficient to rent you to "paintings in your possess" for his or her corporation. If you're short of to "paintings your possess hours" you must open your possess industry.
