Career Training in Computer Network Management
Few careers today offer the job satisfaction and earning potential that comes with a career in computer network management! In fact, career training in computer network management can lead to one of the most rewarding and lucrative careers available in today’s job market. Think about this for just minute. How many companies rely heavily on computer information systems and networks to run and operate their business? Almost every aspect of today’s business is managed on a computer system of some sort and those systems need to be maintained, repaired and upgraded as new software and technology become available. That’s probably why the Bureau of Labor Statistics is showing an 18% projected job growth in computer occupations, which is 63% increase over all other job sectors between 2012 and 2022.
You could make more money!
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (see chart below), the median weekly earnings in 2012 for network and computer system administrators was $72,560.00. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $44,330, and the top 10 percent earned more than $115,180.00 annually.
Increase your career options and opportunities!
It’s no secret that those with a college level education are generally the ones that get the promotions and the new opportunities. Having the credentials of an accredited college degree goes a long way in the workforce with hiring managers and that is especially true in the information technology field when it comes to computer network management and the people who get hired to work on those systems.
Technical Certifications matter…
When it comes to computer network management careers it’s also important to make sure you earn the right certifications. Some of the certifications that can make a big difference between being hired or not hired are listed below:
- Microsoft Certified Systems Administrator (MCSA)
- CompTIA A+
- Security+
- Network+
Walking in the door as a job applicant armed with an accredited college degree and one or more of the above listed certifications can mean the difference between getting the job you love in a career field you love or not.
