Cisco Certification Abroad

Unitek Cisco Blog — Tue, 03 Feb 2009 21:51:40 +0000

Cisco Certification in South America seems to be held in high regards. I was recently abroad over the winter holidays and while lounging about did some job inquiries in Colombia. Little to say there were some heavy salaries to be had if you possess the correct certifications. CCNA seemed to be commanding a minimum salary [...]
