Everyone says you need a degree or certs to land a six-figure IT career.
I didn’t have either.
I still made it from helpdesk → Director in 3 years.

Just dropped an unfiltered interview with NetworkChuck
We talked burnout, certifications, building a brand, and what people don’t see behind the scenes.

One of the most honest convos I’ve had on the podcast.

#CiscoLive was a wild ride—nonstop energy, brilliant minds, and tech everywhere you turned.

I sat down with Tim Titus, CTO of PathSolutions , and what he shared about network monitoring stopped me in my tracks.

It’s not just about uptime—it’s about your future in this field.

Paul joined the IT Career Accelerator with a goal:
Land his first job in tech.

He was tired of applying and hearing nothing. So we gave him direct feedback on his CV, coached him on how to apply the right way—and then it happened.

He landed the role
