“It’s not just about Windows and PCs.

This shift in support philosophy means that IT pros must be familiar with multiple operating systems.”

“IT support and troubleshooting sit at the core of the certification. Technical support and troubleshooting are among the top three skills requested in job ads for entry-level IT professionals.

IT professionals, especially those in help desk and technical support roles, carry the burden of being at the front lines in the battle against unauthorized intrusions.”
