CTI/CTN Questions

Well IT or CTN is basically what I want to do in the civilian world if/when I get out of the Navy. I already have my CompTIA A+ certification and am testing for my Network+ certification in about a week. I might go on to do Security+ over the Summer independently.

Hmm, did you go to IT "A" School in Great Lakes or Pensacola? The rating card has it at Pensacola: https://www.cool.navy.mil/enlisted/r...o_cards/it.pdf but I always thought it was in Great Lakes.

And yeah that's what the rating card says about the CTM rating. I have read that the CTM rating, though, is like an ET with a Top Secret Security Clearance--ya know I just want to do something that works more with networks and all, not electronics (yes networks and computers are electronics though) and electricity.

I am really interested in the IT and CTN ratings now. I would love love the CTN rating if they just weren't so land-based (so I've heard).

But thank you for your reply!
