You have one year exp. in network field so you chose CCNA . CCNA is a good field in your exp. This field is very hard working field but 3-4 years after very easy work and earn more money. ------------------------------------------------------- You can also check out the <a href="http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/tag/careers/">careers</a> and <a href="http://itknowledgeexchange.techtarget.com/itanswers/tag/dba/">DBA</a> tags on the site; many members have asked for career advice and you might find the answer you need.

IMHO, it depends much more on what your drivers are. If you enjoy a more isolated task and are more of a tinkerer, I would stay where you are. If you like people and interacting with the business, I would try the DBA route. Both probably have about equal opportunity and are good for jumping off into other fields in the future if you get bored.

Well, since you already started the CCNA course I suggest that you finish it. It will be one of your many achievements.
Its always a good idea to be multi-disciplined in IT, it will help you better understand future trends/technologies/etc.
Both are good for a career, focus on what you enjoy the most, the rest will follow. :D

These are two very different career paths. What do you want to do? What are you interested in learning more about? It certainly wouldn’t hurt to learn both!
