Due to the fact that Cisco Certs are very technology centric as well as the massive
install base of Cisco based solutions, I would expect that the certs will retain their
value for a good period of time. However, it is always wise to keep abreast of more
than one implementation of technology in the market so as to get a feel for some
alternatives. Sometimes you will learn more about Cisco by comparing it to other
manufacturers.
