Hi, I’ve passed CKA on Dec. 2022 and then I’ve quickly studied the topics of CKAD. Do you think it is worth taking CKAD if I already have CKA or is it better to save money and maybe study for CKS? Is CKAD of any value if you already have CKA? In my opinion it isn’t worth 300$ if you have CKA, what do you think? I’m trying to convince myself to avoid wasting money in something that does not add any value to my CV having already passed CKA and maybe use the money to learn new stuff like CKS.
