Frequently asked questions
Which certification should I get first for remote IT support?
CompTIA A+ or the Google IT Support Professional Certificate for a first helpdesk role. Add Network+ or Security+ once you are working, and a cloud associate certificate if you want to move toward infrastructure.
Do I need my own equipment?
Most employers ship a managed laptop, because they need control over security policy. You are normally expected to provide reliable internet and a quiet workspace.
Is helpdesk work a dead end?
Not if you treat it as an entry point. Helpdesk to systems administration to cloud or security engineering is one of the best-worn paths in tech, and it typically takes two to four years.
