Ask HN: Financial resources for IT certification course, exam, or otherwise?
2 points by jdironman on June 13, 2016 | hide | past | favorite | 2 comments
Any programs out there either federal, state, or local to Kentucky, USA that can provide financial assistance in IT Certifications? (Specifically Cisco CCENT, but anything is welcome)

I have fairly easy access to the training material but more is always better. I'm more specifically worried about the exam cost itself. Even though it's only roughly $150 that's still a lot when you don't have that.

It may not be helpful but I wear two hearing aids and receive my hearing aids through Vocational Rehabilitation services locally and plan to ask them as well. I was just curious if anyone knew of anything else possibly?

I'm not looking for personal loans, student loans or anything like that. Just simply maybe organizations or government programs that are out there.

Thanks in advance guys!




For something like a Cisco certification, Cisco might provide assistance.

Good luck.


Thank you, I will have a look at their site and see what they have available.
