Which reminds me, I need to finish off doing my revisions of the docs we use here at $VENDOR. :smug:

I am almost caught up with my CISSP CEs. Those 1 hour webinars they do are pretty good. Still about 10 behind where I should be. Another month, and I will be ahead. Just need to stay on it. Still have not done anything for my CCNP CEs. They have announced Cisco Live for 2022 will be in Vegas so I should be able to get quite a few there. Will still need to grab some more somewhere.

Finished all of my CCNP CEUs. Now it's time for nothing but $VENDOR stuff until August. Cloud is unfortunately going to have to wait on the backburner.

Don't worry, I expect everything in the cloud to change in the next few months, so most of what you had learned would end up being moot.

Welcome to vendor land,  this is the way.

I've even let my AWS ones expire,  decided to maintain only azure,  and one more cisco cycle then emeritus thank God

I'm now talking with my team about getting/maintaining tech certifications.

... and then work stuff shows up, so CISSP not on the front burner. I'm going to have to retool my personal goals, looks like.

My plate is full the rest of the year with vendor certs. They want everyone on our team to get up to speed on OT as well so that is on the horizon after I level up on the normal stuff.
