Being unemployed right now I have the opportunity to get some cert classes paid for thanks to a fairy godmother. I'm already A+. I've been in the field for 10 years and am now truly feeling the no cert/degree blues. While long-term I'm going to finish the degree, I wanted some insight on the better road to take for the short-term. I don't want to blow a great opportunity.

So here's what I'm thinking, CCNA/MCSE(2000) or CCNA/SCNP. Open to suggestions and guidance, Please!

I personally think that your first option is a good one. CCNA/MCSE(2000), mostly because I don't feel that Microsoft is not going anywhere anytime soon and if you check out the job listings a lot of businesses are requiring you to have an MCSE..I have even seen computer repair jobs require an MCSE...not that I understand why you would need one to fix computers an A+ should be enough for that...well ranting again ttyl.
