What I Am Doing This Summer?

Finally!

My summer holidays have started. I just completed my first year of college. I'm glad its done.

Here is my plan for the Summer:

1. Finish the Official Cert Guide


I am going to finish reading the CCNA Official Cert Guide by Wendell Odom.
This will take me about a month and I would have finished studying for the CCNA by the time the next academic year starts.

LAB EVERYDAY. I will have to practice for the CCNA using labs and practice exams.


2. Python 

  • Finish the Automate The Boring Stuff With Python video course and book.
  • Finish the Python Mega Course:Build 10 Real World Applications video course.
  • Learn important modules and libraries
  • Build a couple small projects and 1 big project(self).
  • Use Git to save and control repositories.

3. TRY and learn the basics of JavaScript


Thanks for reading!

I got really interested in the CEH because it was a well known certification and the syllabus really interested me. I also had a ton of recommendations online and from people in this industry saying that the CEH was a really good beginner level security certification.

Company 1 is a big Networking company where I where the job was being a part of the Incident Response team and Company 2 is mid-size education software provider.
