Help! CCNA without BSc: Any Employment Opportunities?

Was just wondering, does one specialised in Networking with just a CCNA certification, but without a degree, have any sort of chance or opportunity to be employed into any company in Nigeria? If so, how do I go about it, and if you can help, will you let me contact you?

Moreover, I'll just like to know, does a CCIE without a degree stand any chance of employment in Nigeria, and I'm talking about Telecom companies, banks, or the Oil and Gas Sector?

Need ur opinion guys; honestly and sincerely?

Bros i want to speak from the Nigerian point of view the percentage an IT pro will get a good job in Nigeria is so low (like 45%) they don't value the IT pros here.

They feel u have to have a BSC, etc.

But if u are focused and u can get to write ur CCNP and/or CCIE then u should head for mtn. or the arab speaking countries cos they value IT pro..

Thanks man! So much courage and determination on my end now...

How about more exp. with CCNA rather than a Bsc???

I have a BSC(Hnos) Network Computing and now I am studying for my CCNA, I learning more with the CCNA than in my studies at the University, however BSC is a degree and you learn more things than just routing, cabling, etc...

I am a practicing network engineer in nigeria. Your problem now is that you have already programmed your mind to used a ccna to get a highpaying job . know the job very well if you stand alone you can earn more than what any bank or telecom firm will pay you.

You can execute a 1.5 million naira cabling job in a week

but if you get a high paying job fine

improve your skill

knowledge + know how = skill, skill repeated over and over again is equal to expertise, and expertise will bring money
