#1: The course "ACRC" is now retired, and the exam is no longer available.
The new course / exam is : BSCN (Building Scalable Cisco Networks) and the
exam is called Routing 2.0.  This is your first step usually into CCNP/CCDP
after CCNA/CCDA.

#2: Whether you want to gain Design-based certifications is up to you.. what
kind of work do you do/want to do?  Are you helping design / engineer /
provision / upgrade internetworking gear?  Then by all means, take the
Design.  I am finding that working for a Systems Integrator, that design
opportunities are coming my way quite often.  I have studied for this exam,
just simply have not written the exam to get the paper.  I have talked to my
employer about possible benefits regarding this cert, and they seem very
interested in me continuing my road to Cisco-dom.. as I am the only employee
out of 6 technical datacom workers, and 200+ employees (mostly telecom and
wireless cellular tower engineers) to be certified from Cisco.

The final answer is, "IT DEPENDS".  Depends on what you want for yourself,
and for your employer.

Subject: CCDA after CCNA


Hi Group,

I just passed my CCNA test this week and i was just wondering if i should go
and attempt CCDA or go for ACRC ? Do you think attempting CCDA would do me
any good as in terms of advancing further at the workplace ? Or ACRC would
be a wiser option.?

Thanks in advance
Dharmesh
