Technologies & Industry - Fastest Growing Job Sector

LAN and WAN refer to a set of technologies that allows all digital communications between organizations, individuals, and even devices (IoT). We are the infrastructure for all information technology (IT) activities including business apps/databases, online gaming/apps, mobile devices, and internet/websites.

Fastest Growing Job Sector (No One Knows) - For this reason, we are the mission-critical infrastructure of EVERY company in EVERY industry. The result is that LAN/WAN is currently one of the BEST job categories and one of the fastest-growing job sectors today and for at least the next 10 years.

With that stated, no one knows this because we are NOT classified as a job category but as a subcategory within various other job categories. Click below to get a better understanding of the labor shortage along with the technologies and industry to determine whether LAN/WAN as an industry is right for you.

1. Labor Shortage - Expanded Definition, Shortage Of Qualified Candidates & Usage Growth

The LAN/WAN Job category has a labor shortage TODAY that is estimated to continue for at least the next 5 to 10+ years. There are four reasons for this occurrence starting with (1) the expanded definition of LAN/WAN technologies, (2) limited pool of qualified candidates, (3) every industry expanded its LAN/WAN usage and (4) the infrastructure bill that will invest billions into LAN/WAN for next 10 years.

Significant Pay Increases & Signing Bonuses ($5,000 to $30,000+) - The significant labor shortage has increased pay resulting in pay ranges for new members increasing from $60,000 to $120,000 to $80,000 to over $150,000 per year. In addition, many companies provide a flexible work schedule along with the ability to work 100% remote. The following are explanations of 5 factors causing these shortages.


  1. Expanded Definition Of LAN/WAN - As detailed in section 2, LAN/WAN technologies not only include routing and switching but also some of the hottest technologies including security, wireless, cloud, network monitoring/management, voice, and video. In addition, LAN/WAN technologies have been expanding to the cloud (data centers, virtualization, automation), SDWAN, and even IoT devices.
  2. Limited Pool Of Skilled Pros - With the ever-expanding, highly-specialized nature of LAN/WAN technologies, there are no training services available that cover all the LAN/WAN technical, professional, and consulting skill requirements. This includes traditional learning institutions and online training sites. The result is that there is a very limited pool of professionals with proper LAN/WAN skills.
  3. Increase Usage In Every Industry - In today's digitally-connected age, every industry including healthcare, social media, video streaming, banking, utility, retail/restaurant, hospitality along with all levels of government/military not only rely on LAN/WAN but are also expanding their LAN/WAN usage. In other words, EVERY INDUSTRY is HIRING more LAN/WAN Professionals.
  4. Stimulus (Gov, Heath, Education) - The US provides over $1 trillion dollars in stimulus packages for Government, Healthcare and Education with a sizable portion going to LAN/WAN activities focusing on providing services remotely. This began in 2021 and will continue for at least the next few years. This is also another reason why there continues to be a shortage of LAN/WAN Pros.

Infrastructure Bill ($1.2 Trillion) - Finally, the infrastructure bill enacted in 2021 invests $1.2 trillion over the next 5 years from 2022 to 2026 and a sizable portion of this bill goes toward LAN/WAN related activities that further increases the number of LAN/WAN jobs starting back in 2023 and will continue through at least 2030 (6 years) to over 10 years. Based on all these factors, this is the best time to be in LAN/WAN.

2. Technologies - Critical Technologies From Core, Specialized, Enterprise, and Additional

LAN/WAN Technologies are grouped into 4 technology categories based on how common and important the technologies are to an organization. They include (1) core technologies that all companies expect a seasoned LAN/WAN professional to know, (2) specialized technologies that give you an advantage, (3) enterprise technologies that get you into $120,000+ jobs, and (4) additional technologies.

Over 10 Critical Technologies (Training Not Available In Schools) - There are actually over 10 key technologies that are mission-critical to every organization. Unfortunately, training is mainly available for just routing, switching, and some security through traditional learning institutions. Even worse, the training you get is mainly conceptual and not practical to the real world. Please review the 4 technology categories below.


  1. Core (Routing, Switching & Net Security) - LAN/WAN Core relates to technologies that you MUST UNDERSTAND as a LAN/WAN pro working in entry to low mid-level roles earning at least $80,000 up to $120,000 per year. The specific technologies labeled as Core include general WAN routing (OSFP, EIGRP), small HQ to branch layer 2/3 switching along with network security including basic firewalls and VPN.
  2. Specialized (Security, Wireless, Voice) - Specialized includes technologies that you are expected to know for jobs that begin at $100,000 to $150,000 and are in addition to the CORE technologies. These technologies include security, firewalls, all types of VPN, and various ways to authenticate. In addition, strong proficiency in wireless and general familiarity with voice as a secondary skillset.
  3. Enterprise (LB, Nexus, ISE, Monitor, Manage) - Enterprise Technologies are required skills for LAN/WAN roles that pay over $120,000 or higher. They include Data Center technologies such as Load Balancing, Management Tools, Nexus, and enterprise routing (BGP) or highly specialized security technologies such as ISE and SIEM that you are only expected to know if you are a senior LAN/WAN professional.
  4. Additional (Automation, SDWAN, Virtual, IoT) - Additional technologies include an ever-expanding set of technologies that LAN/WAN pros are beginning to handle. The good news is that once you have mastered the CORE and Specialized technologies, you can easily pick up SDWAN and IoT devices, and our 5-part training allows you to pick up new technologies including automation & virtualization fast.

Master CORE/Specialized Technologies - All approved new members will receive the LAN/WAN Associate package that has been OPTIMIZED to help new members initially earn $80,000 to $150,000 per year. To accomplish this, new members will master CORE technologies that are the most critical to know and also get general proficiency on specialized technologies and exposure to most ENTERPRISE technologies.

3. Industry - We Are A Critical Part Of Every Industry In Every Major Country

The LAN/WAN industry not only includes (1) companies that develop LAN/WAN technologies such as Cisco Systems, Juniper, Palo Alto, etc. but also includes (2) consulting/managed service companies that support these companies and (3) the companies that USE LAN/WAN technologies. In fact, most of the jobs in LAN/WAN will come from the latter 2 categories. Based on this, you can work in EVERY INDUSTRY.

We Are Also Mission Critical To Living (We Are Everywhere) - In addition to being part of every industry, we are also a critical part of everyday living. We are not only in your home (phone, computer, TV, gaming, appliances), we are in restaurants, supermarkets, retail, hospitality, sporting events, travel, and even activities you do not think about but need such as delivery, utilities, etc. Please review the 4 “industry” groupings below.


  1. LAN/WAN Manufacturers/Developers - Companies such as Cisco Systems, Juniper, Arista, Palo Alto, Checkpoint, F5, Citrix, Aruba among others who manufacture/develop LAN/WAN technologies would officially be called the LAN/WAN industry. With that stated, as big as this industry is, the number of LAN/WAN jobs they offer is just a small percentage of the total LAN/WAN jobs.
  2. Consulting/Managed Service Providers - A significant portion of LAN/WAN pros work for consulting companies and managed services providers who service companies using LAN/WAN technologies. These companies include AT&T, Microsoft (AWS), Verizon, and not-so-well-known but large international organizations such as Infosys, TCS, and HCL which service/support companies in every industry.
  3. BIG 3 (Government, Healthcare & Education) - The 3 largest industries based on the gross domestic product (GDP) is government including local, state, federal, and military (35% to 40%), healthcare (18%) and education (10%). Combined, they represent over 65% of all GDP and are where the vast majority of LAN/WAN opportunities exist. Just as important. Many of these positions provide great work/life balance.
  4. Every Other Industry You Can Think Of - Finally, we are part of EVERY industry you can think of from industries you may have an interest in as a hobby/leisure such as online gaming, social networking, travel, entertainment (music, TV, movies), retail, restaurants, professional sports (NBA, NFL, MLB) to more traditional such as financial services, manufacturing, utilities, and transportation.

Work For Your "Dream" Company - As summarized above, LAN/WAN professionals can work in virtually EVERY industry possible including TV, movies, online gaming, travel, and even pro sports. For this reason, the real question is what industry do you want to work in? Imagine getting a job that not only pays great with coworkers who respect and value you but also at YOUR "dream" company. What is that worth?

Five Major-Tech/Changes That Will Transform Our Society For The Next 10 Years - Every decade, our society goes through major transformations. Below are major tech/changes that will DRAMATICALLY CHANGE where and how we WORK and LIVE. Just as important, LAN/WAN technologies play a mission-critical role in every one of the major changes below. Read below on how these changes will SIGNIFICANTLY increase LAN/WAN opportunities.

4. New Technologies/Changes - Transforms Where and How We WORK & LIVE For The Next 10+ Years

As you already know, the Coronavirus back in 2020 had a significant impact on our daily lives both personally and professionally. This ranges from virtually all companies along with local, state, and federal government agencies allowing their employees to work remotely from home. On a personal level, there is a continual increase in online shopping, virtual interactions, remote learning, online gaming, video streaming, etc.

Society Change Is Permanent (LAN/WAN Plays A Key Role) - The temporary changes described above along with other changes are expected to become permanent. Below is a highlight of key changes in work/life activities and new technologies that will transform how we WORK and LIVE. Just as important, the summary explains how these changes will SIGNIFICANTLY increase LAN/WAN opportunities.


  1. Movement To Cloud (LAN/WAN is Cloud) - The move of applications and related technologies from your PC or local network to the cloud started over 10 years ago. Since the coronavirus (2020), the pace of this move increased. Please remember that the term “cloud” refers to data centers and LAN/WAN is CRITICAL to not only getting to the data centers but are also the infrastructure for all data centers.
  2. Increase In Working Remotely Nationwide - A nationwide survey verified that working remotely is one of the top job benefits an employee seeks. Conversely, recent studies have shown that employees are actually more productive working remotely and also lowers operational costs. For both reasons, working remotely will become more permanent. LAN/WAN is mission-critical to working remotely.
  3. Remotely Managing Devices (IoT Devices) - Companies have been converting electronic devices to Internet Of Things (IoT) objects that can be monitored and managed through LAN/WAN including POS, delivery and inventory tracking, video surveillance, etc. In the home, IOT devices include TV, gaming systems, and even appliances such as your refrigerator. Every IOT device increases LAN/WAN traffic.
  4. Solar/Battery & 5G Tech (Live Anywhere) - Advancements in solar/battery technology will allow people to have electricity without being connected to the electrical grid and 5G will give you wireless connectivity that is faster than current wired. This will allow employees to LIVE and WORK from anywhere. This not only increases LAN/WAN traffic but also transforms the makeup of communities.
  5. Augmented Reality (Must Have LAN/WAN) - Augmented reality simply means integrating “virtual reality” into real-life activities. For augmented reality to work, a person needs to have an IoT device (eyeglasses, etc) that interacts through LAN/WAN. In addition, the network traffic augmented reality created is 10+ times more than a digital phone. This will SIGNIFICANTLY increase LAN/WAN traffic EVERYWHERE.

Continual Importance of LAN/WAN (Shortage Of LAN/WAN Pros) - As summarized above, the usage of LAN/WAN technologies both at work and in our personal lives will continue to grow at a significant pace. For this reason, LAN/WAN will become even more MISSION CRITICAL to EVERY organization. The result is that the demand for LAN/WAN professionals will continue to grow. This is a great time to be a LAN/WAN Pro.

LAN/WAN Opportunities - $80,000 To Over $500,000 Per Year

LAN/WAN professionals are responsible for high-impact technologies that are mission-critical and have high price/value to EVERY organization. In addition, LAN/WAN pros handle a wide range of responsibilities from admin/support, hands-on engineer, management and most important, high-level consulting.

Great Pay/Quality Of Life (Fantastic Status) - Based on your responsibilities, compensation starts at $80,000 to $150,000 (initial members) to $120,000 to $500,000 (long term members). In addition to high pay, you are a respected member of the organization who is appreciated, and what you do MATTERS.

Finally, LAN/WAN opportunities can give you fantastic quality of life benefits including working remotely with schedules that match your life.

1. High Compensation - Three Key Roles Paying $80,000 to $150,000 (Initial) & $120,000 to $500,000+ Per Year

The IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) service operations model is the de facto IT operations standard for most government agencies and many large companies. Based on the ITIL, all job responsibilities can be organized into 3 major groups called the PBR representing PLAN, BUILD and RUN. Finally, every major group needs managers to run the team. Please read below for the 4 types of jobs you can do.

Three “Secrets” To High Pay ($80,000 to $500,000+ Per Year) - In addition, you should also understand the 3 reasons why LAN/WAN opportunities pay such high wages which includes (1) high impact, (2) mission-critical, and (3) price/value ratio. The 3 “secret” factors will be further explained during the LAN/WAN Virtual Conference. The following is a bulleted summary of the PBR roles plus management.


  1. RUN - Support/Admin ($80,000 to $150,000+) - The RUN team handles day-to-day operations with focus on (1) escalation support (tickets on issues) along with (2) admin activities such as change requests for live devices. The main skills required are your transferable Professional skills/experience. The tech skills we provide will be beyond this role. In fact, you will only use 5% to 25% of what we teach you.
  2. BUILD - Engineering ($120,000 to $210,000+) - The BUILD team are engineers responsible for handling various deployment activities including (1) device deployments, (2) life cycle refreshes, and (3) device migrations at all levels including branch, corporate, and/or data center environments. The compensation varies based on the 3 high pay factors. The initial membership is optimized for engineering roles.
  3. PLAN – Architect ($150,000 to $300,000+) - The PLAN team/individuals are responsible for designing solutions and the project management for implementation of those design solutions. This role has the (1) most impact, (2) mission-critical, and (3) price/value resulting in the highest compensation ranges. This is the main target role for long-term LAN/WAN members starting at Pro level and higher.
  4. ALL - Director ($180,000 to $500,000+) - Finally, every team listed above needs directors and executives to manage and lead the team. If you have work experience in management, you can qualify to run those teams after spending a year working in the LAN/WAN industry. Finally, due to LAN/WAN importance, the highest role in all of information technology IT) which is the CIO/CTO is becoming a LAN/WAN role.

Consulting Business ($210,000 to $1,000,000+) - As you can see from above, LAN/WAN opportunities provide above market wages. As beneficial as being an employee is, the best option for long term career/life success is having your own consulting business at least part-time and ideally full time. This allows you to take control of your career and not only earn a higher income but also pay less taxes resulting in higher savings.

2. Great Quality Of Life - Flexible Schedule That Matches Your Lifestyle & Build Wealth & “Work Retired”

As important as compensation is, what is equally important is your WORK and PERSONAL quality of life. LAN/WAN opportunities are structured to potentially give you great work and personal quality of life. This not only includes the ability to work remotely with a work schedule that is more flexible to your personal life, but also good to great benefits. Read below as to HOW it is possible and what you get.

LAN/WAN Opportunities (Optimized For Remote/Flex Schedule) - LAN/WAN technologies are located in every facility that the company has throughout the USA and the world. In addition, these technologies are optimized to be managed remotely and the work required to do these activities is scheduled. For these reasons, LAN/WAN opportunities are optimized for remote with flex schedules.


  1. Work Remote (Anywhere In US & World) - Today, most LAN/WAN roles are either (1) 100% remote and can be done from anywhere in the United States or are done (1) mostly remotely with the occasional visit to an onsite location such as a data center or corporate HQ. If you are in the latter role, you will need to work within 2 hours of the location but may only come in once a week or 2 to 3 times a month.
  2. Flex Schedule (Match Your Lifestyle) - In addition, you can have a more flexible work schedule in terms of WHEN you work. The combination of working remotely and a flex schedule allows you to visit family/friends and even “vacation” anywhere WHILE you are working not just for weeks but months. At the end of the day, imagine LIVING your life including travel while you work?!?
  3. Dream Company (Experience “Culture”) - Just as important, you can work for your DREAM company and FULLY experience the company “culture”? If you are working for Nike, Disney, Meta (Facebook), major pro teams, online gaming companies, you can work at their corporate HQ and even attend any events/activities that are associated with these organizations. What is the value of this?
  4. Build Wealth (Spend “Smart” & SAVE) - Finally, you will learn how to LIVE as a Consultant and spend “smart”, especially on major purchases such as buying a car, furnishing your house, luxury goods, major vacations and even buying a house. This will allow you to live a great quality of life while you concurrently SAVE every month so that you can start building your wealth.

INVEST & “Work Retired” (LIVE As A Consultant) - In addition to the above, LAN/WAN Pros learn how to GROW their wealth by taking their savings and investing not only into traditional investments such as 401K, stocks, and homes but also other areas such as commercial real estate and business opportunities. The result is helping you get “work retired” within 5 to 20 years.

3. Fantastic Status - Be an “Owner”/Consult Top Companies & Be Respected, Appreciated, & Valued

As you have read, the companies that LAN/WAN pros work for are typically large Fortune 500 companies, TOP nonprofits, and major government agencies. In addition, the roles you handle are high-impact and mission-critical to these organizations. Even better, you will be an “owner” of your own successful consulting business. The result is that you will be more respected, listened to, and recognized/valued at work.

Personal Life Status (Heavily Impacted By Your “Work”) - Just as important, this will also have a positive impact on even your personal life. Good or bad, who you work for, what you do and the level of role you have DIRECTLY impacts how others treat you in your personal life INCLUDING family and friends. As a LAN/WAN Pro and “OWNER”, your work and live status will TRANSFORM.


  1. Respected (How You Are Treated) - The first thing you will notice working as a LAN/WAN pro is that WHAT YOU DO MATTERS to the company you work for. For this reason, you will receive a higher respect/courtesy that is more associated with directors and higher-level staff. In addition, this will also translate into your personal life where others around you will give respect/courtesy that matches your work.
  2. Listened To (Your Ideas Matter) - In addition, you will be looked upon as a subject matter expert (SME) on technologies that are mission-critical to the success of the company. For this reason, your ideas will be listened to AND IMPLEMENTED. This is especially true if you are paid as a high level consultant. Even in your personal life, your thoughts and opinions will matter more to family and “friends”.
  3. Recognized (Valued/Appreciated) - The work you do can potentially increase company revenues or significantly decrease operational costs due to automation. In addition, if your consulting company is hired to help, you will even be recognized by senior management including key executives within the company. Just as important, you will be recognized as a “leader” within your “family” and in your community.
  4. Be An “Owner” (Amazing Status) - Finally, as the “owner” of a successful consulting company that services top Fortune 500 companies and government agencies, you will experience what it feels like to be a FOUNDER of your own company. This is a level of status that only a rare few ever achieve. Once you experience this status level, you will never want to go back to being an “employee” ever again.

Work/Life Status (Most Important In Life) - Once you receive high compensation and have a great quality of life, you will realize that work/life status is more important than anything else. Remember, STATUS is about being treated with (1) RESPECT, where your (2) OPINIONS MATTER, and you are (3) VALUED/APPRECIATED by people you care about. This includes your family and friends. What is that worth?

“Secrets” (IMPACTFUL Info You ALREADY Know But NOT Used) - We associate the word “Secret” to any COMMON INFORMATION that you already know that has a significant impact on helping you SUCCEED in your CAREER & LIFE but DO NOT USE. The following are “secrets” on how to get high level LAN/WAN jobs requiring at least 5 to over 10+ years of experience with NO previous LAN/WAN experience.

4. Key Job “Secrets” - How You Get LAN/WAN Job Requiring 5+ Years With Little To NO LAN/WAN Experience

A typical LAN/WAN role described in the above sections requires a minimum of 5 to 10+ years of proven work experience. Unfortunately, the average new member has very limited to NO previous LAN/WAN work experience. So how do we have a success rate of over 90% helping new members with no previous LAN/WAN experience not only GET but successfully MASTER opportunities earning $80,000 to $150,000 per year?

Experience In Responsibilities (Proficiency In Technologies) - The answer is companies only care about your PROFICIENCY in the technology BUT want “EXPERIENCE” in handling the responsibilities relating to the (1) PLAN and/or (2) BUILD and/or (3) RUN teams in previous companies along with having transferable Pro/Tech abilities. The following is a bulleted summary of how this is possible.


  1. Constant Tech Change (3 to 5 Years) - Large organizations do a “life cycle refresh” on over 20 LAN/WAN technologies every 3 to 5 years due to the mission-critical nature of these technologies. For this reason, it is unrealistic to have over 5 years of experience in a specific technology. Especially if you are part of the team replacing old technology with the NEW TECHNOLOGY you were just exposed to.
  2. Proficiency In Specific Technology - Based on the reality stated above, what is most important is your real-world HANDS-ON PROFICIENCY on the common activities associated with that technology. There are over 20 LAN/WAN technologies grouped into 4 major categories that you need to be proficient in. LAN/WAN Pro will get you proficient in LAN/WAN technologies in 3 to 10 Months.
  3. Transferable “Pro/Tech” Abilities - You must also possess general PRO/TECH abilities. PRO abilities include but are not limited to (1) verbal communication and written communication skills, (2) multitasking skills, (3) analytical/validation skills. TECH abilities include good (1) troubleshooting skills, (2) analysis/validation skills, and/or (3) design and project management skills to be successful in LAN/WAN.
  4. “Experience” In Responsibilities - Finally, you need to have transferable experience working in at least 1 of 3 key areas of company operations from (1 – PLAN) including design, project management, or general management, (2 – BUILD) including installation, configuration, deployment, life cycle refresh, migration and/or (3 – RUN) including escalation support (help desk) and administration.

Must Have Transferable Tech/Pro & “Experience” - We can help you get LAN/WAN opportunities requiring 5 to 7 years of experience as long as you possess transferable Pro/Tech abilities (Attribute 1 & 2). In addition, you must have work experience or equivalent knowledge in at least 1 of the 3 PBR areas of operations, even if your experience was just professional and not technical. Please ensure that you possess them.

High Pay - $80,000 to $500,000+ (Build Wealth) - The initial goal is to acquire an entry/mid-level role earning $80,000 to $150,000 within 3 to 6 Months and progress to a lead-level role earning $120,000 to over $500,000 per year within 1 to 3 years. More importantly, we will help our members learn how to save SIGNIFICANTLY every month and invest wisely so that they can build their wealth to “working retired”.
  2. Great Quality Of Life (Both At Work & Home) - As important as compensation is, your work and personal quality of life is more important. LAN/WAN pros can work at the corporate HQ of their favorite company OR travel nationally/internationally company paid OR work remotely from anywhere. We help you get a LAN/WAN role at the company of your dreams, with a work schedule that reinforces YOUR quality of life.
  3. Fantastic Status (Valued/Appreciated & Respected) - As a LAN/WAN pro, you will be valued by your company and respected by your peers due to the mission-critical, high-impact nature of your role, and the significant financial impact you have on your company. In addition, your high job status will also dramatically increase your status with your family/friends and will SIGNIFICANTLY impact even your social life.

Possess Right Attributes (Share Values) - Please ensure that you reviewed and AGREE with the 3 SUCCESS FACTORS above. In addition, ensure that you possess 4 key “Right Candidate” attributes including being career focused, and share our 4 core values (read below).

With this in mind, we offer 3 comprehensive sets of services as summarized below that are designed to help you achieve your success goals.

Fast Track Success (“Work Retired” Within 5 to 20 Years) - Just as important, we help our members attain success that traditionally would take 5 to 7 years in just 3 to 6 months initially. Furthermore, upgrade to higher positions and fully transform your quality of life within 1 to 3 years. Most important, we will help our members save, and invest wisely to build wealth to be “working retired” in 5 to 20 years versus 40+ years.


  1. Launch/Fast Track Your Career - The first set of services are designed to help our members achieve the first success goal of high pay starting at $80,000 and progressing to over $500,000. We accomplish this by first helping our members (1) acquire skills 40+ times faster than traditional learning, (2) receive comprehensive focused placement to get a great job fast, and (3) job guidance to master your new job.
  2. Launch/Build Your Consulting - In addition, we will help you THINK like a consultant and build your consulting skills that are required skills for higher-level roles earning $120,000 to over $300,000 per year. In addition, we will help launch/develop a consulting business to earn a part-time income of $20,000 to $50,000+ while you concurrently work full-time and potentially become a full-time business earning $500,000+.
  3. Quality Of Life/”Work Retired” - Finally, we help you accomplish your final 2 success goals including helping you WORK and LIVE as a consultant and (2) achieve great quality of life and (3) fantastic status at work and at home as summarized above. Your final 2 success goals are best achieved when you have enough wealth to retire but still choose to work because you want to. This is called “working retired”.

Live Your Dream Life (While Helping Others) - Ultimately, we want to help EVERY member DEFINE their dream life and help them LIVE it and be a role model (leader) to those around them. Once you achieve this special status, we hope you have the positive moral character to then pass it on by helping others you care about to attain the same success you have achieved and be a LEADER at work, at home, and in your community.

Four Member Levels - Start As Associate & Qualify To Upgrade To Professional, Consultant & IKON

The final core value of our organization and also our motto is “Developing Tomorrow’s Consultants & Leaders Today”. To achieve this, we offer four membership levels beginning with the associate (transitional) membership and progressing to professional, consultant, and finally IKON level. As you can see, every level represents a higher level of career and life success at work, at home, and in your community.

Think, Work & Live As A Consultant (Upgraded To Pro+) - As stated above, every new member starts at the Associate level. If you desire to get upgraded to Professional, Consultant, or IKON level and achieve higher career and life success, simply show us that you possess the 4 core values (read below). Just as important, demonstrate to us that you can THINK as a Consultant both at WORK and in your LIFE.


  1. Associate Member ($80,000 to $150,000) - This is a TRANSITIONAL membership that helps you acquire real-world LAN/WAN skills 40+ times faster than traditional learning and qualify for LAN/WAN opportunities (1) earning $80,000 to over $150,000 per year within 3 to 6 months. Also, help you (2) launch & learn how to Think, Work & Live as a Consultant and (3) START your work and life TRANSFORMATION.
  2. Qualify As Permanent Member (“Work Retired”) - If you demonstrate that you SHARE our core values (read below) during your associate membership, you can qualify to become a PERMANENT member starting with the Professional where you achieve even higher success as summarized below. Even better, qualify to Consultant and IKON level to OWN a successful consulting business or franchise.
  3. Professional Member ($120,000 to $300,000+) - As a Professional Member we will help you (1) upgrade to earning $120,000 to $300,000+ per year that includes (2) earning $5,000 to $20,000+ through your consulting company within 1 to 3 years. Just as important, (3) transform your quality of life including saving/investing to build your wealth build so that you can be “working retired” within 10 years..

Consultant & IKON ($240,000 to $500,000+) - Finally, Top Members who can elevate to Consultant and even IKON status and (1) earn $240,000 to over $500,000 per year and potentially over $1,000,000+ (2) through your consulting business and/or becoming an owner of a LAN/WAN Franchise. Most important, live a FANTASTIC lifestyle while you build wealth FAST so that you can be “working retired” in just 5 years.

Share Four Core Values (Key To Membership APPROVAL) - LAN/WAN Professional has identified four core values that not only define WHO we are as an organization but are integrated into EVERYTHING we do including WHAT services we provide and HOW we provide those services. For this reason, it is critical that every new member shares these values to fully maximize the benefits of our services. Please click below for details.

Company Core Values - Defines Who We Are, How We Do Everything and The Membership “Family We Choose”

As referenced above, EVERY part of our organization including even WHAT/HOW we provide our services and HOW we interact with our members is OPTIMIZED for qualified candidates who not only possess the 4 “Right Candidate” attributes but also SHARE our four core values. For this reason, we want to ensure that all new members share our values to have a WIN/WIN relationship (1st Core Value).

Verify Our Core Values (Matches Your Values) - Please ensure that you take the time to FULLY understand the four core values and ensure that your values match ours. If you do not, we respectfully ask that you DO NOT apply for membership. If you do, demonstrate that you share our values through your actions during the qualification process and initial membership. Below are the four core values.


  1. ALWAYS Seek "WIN/WIN" Relationship - The first and most FUNDAMENTAL core value is to only have relationships that result in a "WIN/WIN" situation. As a membership organization, this means ONLY ACCEPTING members that can benefit from our services and tying our service fees to our member's success. As a candidate, only apply if you truly possess the 4 "Right Candidate" attributes for success.
  2. Pursue A Career/Your Passion (Not A Job) - The second core value is understanding the difference between (1) a JOB you do to pay "rent", (2) a CAREER you care about, and (3) a life PASSION you would do even if you were not getting paid (if you can afford to). LAN/WAN members understand this and NEVER accept a JOB and only pursue a CAREER and hopefully your PASSION so you are already “working retired”.
  3. Develop & Be A Leader (Help Others) - The third core value is a desire to develop leadership skills and become a leader. Once you become a leader, find others who want to become a leader and help them become leaders. With this in mind, our services are optimized to develop future leaders focused on providing real world resources and proven mentoring to our members. WE HELP YOU HELP YOURSELF.

FOUR: THINK, WORK & LIVE As A Consultant - Finally, the fourth and MOST IMPORTANT core value is to THINK as a consultant not only to WORK but also to LIVE. This is not only who we are but is integrated into EVERYTHING we do and is REQUIRED to be a permanent member. For this reason, please ensure that you will make the necessary changes to THINK like a consultant before you continue forward.

Company/Founder History - 30+ Years Helping Others

LAN/WAN Professional and its founder, Eric Choi has been helping clients/members attain career and life success for 30+ years. Just as important, our services are regularly refined by members & staff resulting in a stellar success rate as long as we only accept the “Right Candidate” who shares our Core Values.

Origin Story (30+ Years Of Success & “Failures”) - Our comprehensive set of services is defined as much if not more from our “failures” than our success. For this reason, please review our full history including the two previous companies and the career/personal history of our founder, Eric Choi.

You will see that the 3 services offered by LAN/WAN Pro originated from our founder’s personal journey to (1) fast-track his career, (2) develop/launch his consulting & other businesses and (3) transform his quality of life. Please read his/our history and plan to be a global organization of Consultants & Leaders.

Start & End Year - Summary Description Of Key Events

Founder/Origin: Of (1) Career Success, (2) Think/Build Consulting & (3) Life Transformation

The company founder, Eric Choi, was born poor in South Korea (avg income of $187/Yr) and immigrated to USA and also grew up in one of the poorest areas of Los Angeles, CA. In addition, he had what would be labeled today as ADHD which significantly impacted his ability to learn like a “normal” person. At an early age, Mr. Choi recognized that he cannot control the life he was given but he can control what he does with it.

Origin Of LAN/WAN Pro (Founder’s Personal Journey) - Mr. Choi learned how to take control of his ADHD and was identified as highly gifted by the LAUSD and was bused to one of the top public schools in Los Angeles. Mr. Choi then went to college early at 16 years old but decided to leave college to serve his country as a US Marine in 1988. Below are highlights of his personal journey to work and life success.


  1. US Marine Corps (Real World Training) - Like all marines, Eric completed basic/MOS training including graduating at the top of his class. During this period, Eric learned the real-world training methodology that became the core part of our 5-part training structure for acquiring skills 40+ times faster. Unlike most marines, he bought his first home when only 18 years old and started his wealth building.
  2. Business Failure (Jump Started IT Career) - Upon honorable discharge, Eric sold his house and took his savings/investments to launch his first major business venture. As president, he grew this organization to over 50 employees within 1 year including being on the cover of a major newspaper in May 1993. Unfortunately, the business closed 2 months later due to inadequate funding.
  3. Bypass Entry IT (Fast Track To Consulting) - The experience Eric acquired from “failing” his first business gave him the ability to fast track to a high-level role as an IT consultant handling major corporate, government, and military clients. He also handled management roles for Autobytel (hot internet IPO) and AXA group (world’s largest insurance company) all by the time he was only 27 years old.
  4. Eric’s Brother Ray (First Client & Partner) - As Eric progressed, he also helped his brother Ray jumpstart his IT career starting as a network engineer for a regional consulting company with high profile clients including Warner Bros, Disney, Bank of America, etc that transitioned into a senior engineer role for Activision (Blizzard) leading a team of IT professionals by the time he was only 23 years old.
  5. Business Ventures (Prep For LAN/WAN) - Throughout this period, Eric and Ray never gave up on their entrepreneurial spirit despite false starts including launching Cyber Guild (1st network gaming center in the world) 3 years too early, Global Village (Internet Night Club), and a successful IT consulting company. These experiences became the foundation for the companies that became LAN/WAN Pro.
  6. Going From Rags To Riches (Life Transformation) - On a personal level, Eric grew up in one of the poorest areas of Los Angeles but worked hard throughout his young life to TRANSFORM his life including living in one of the wealthiest communities in America (Newport Beach, CA) by his mid 20’s and getting engaged to his best friend, Melanie and enjoying an amazing lifestyle including vacations in Europe.

Helping Others & Writing An IT Success Book - Eric has always enjoyed helping others and shared his success “secrets” with friends, family, and coworkers who also progressed in their careers. He turned that advice into a how-to manual on how to be successful in IT in 1997. The how-to manual became the foundation for two companies that were the precursor to LAN/WAN Professional.

1998 to 2009: Personal & Business Success/Failures – Laying The Foundation For LAN/WAN Pro

Eric Choi took his book on how to be successful in IT and decided to “test out” his ideas to ensure that what he wrote worked. In 1998, he created a series of workshops and partnered with a regional IT training organization to offer the workshops to portions of their graduating class. The result was extraordinary. Students who attended his workshop attained significantly higher success than students who did not.

Painful Lessons (To Build A Great, Caring Organization) - Eric launched two very successful businesses that helped thousands of clients attain career success and transform their life. The business success AND loss also coincided with Eric Choi’s personal happiness and extremely painful losses over a period of 12 years. Please review how the experiences from this period became the foundation for LAN/WAN Professional.


  1. Great Business Success (Personal Happiness) - Eric and his brother Ray who was working at Cisco Systems, launched ICTP, a grad-level tech school that helped its students acquire real-world IT skills 8 times faster in 1998. This business grew to over 100 employees in just 3 years and was valued at over $40 million. Eric also married his best friend, Melanie, and became a father to a beautiful son, Adam.
  2. Closing A Great School (Losing Everything) - The IT industry went into the worst recession ever in 2001 that caused thousands of tech companies to close. ICTP needed to downsize quickly to survive but Eric could not let go of any of its staff as he considered them family. This “bad business decision” caused the closure of ICTP in 2003 and the loss of Eric’s marriage and separation from his son, Adam.
  3. “Get Busy Living OR Dying” (Eric Chose To LIVE) - Throughout his life, Eric never gave up no matter how difficult life was. Unfortunately, by the summer of 2004, the loss was so great that Eric contemplated suicide. Fortunately, he remembered his son Adam, his parents, and his brother’s family. His responsibility and love for them gave him the strength to “Get Busy Living”, a phrase from The Shawshank Redemption.
  4. New Start (Both In Business And In Life) - By 2005, Eric launched Tech Pros Group (TPG), a professional organization focused on helping its clients succeed and benefiting from their success. Around this time, he also found a kindred spirit in TuVan, who was equally passionate about her success and life. Tech Pros Group grew quickly to over 30 staff members and helped thousands of clients.
  5. Cancer (Choosing Personal Over Business) - By 2006, TuVan was informed that she had terminal cancer. Based on hearing this, Eric focused on helping TuVan LIVE LIFE to its fullest in between 3 chemotherapy sessions and 10+ surgeries over 4 years. Her final wish before she passed was a wedding. Eric and Tuvan had a special wedding in August 2009. Tuvan passed exactly 1 month later in bed as Eric lay beside her.
  6. Starting LAN/WAN Pro And Health Issues - By the fall of 2008, Eric closed down TPG and kept a small dedicated team of less than 10 to launch LAN/WAN Professional to take care of a small list of clients while he focused on taking care of TuVan in her final year of life. During this time, Eric was also informed that he had type 2 diabetes due to his extreme lifestyle including high stress and poor eating.

Life Journey/Lessons (Foundation For LAN/WAN Pro) - Eric Choi experienced more in 20 years (sections 1 & 2) than most have in 3 lifetimes while helping thousands of clients. This includes how career and life success/loss are so intertwined and the importance of a person’s CORE VALUES in the face of adversity. These experiences created the foundation for LAN/WAN Pro, a nationwide membership organization.

2010 to 2019: Solidifying Our Career Services But Accepting WRONG Members

LAN/WAN Professional, a nationwide membership organization, officially started in the fall of 2008. With that stated, the actual transformation of the organization including implementing the comprehensive improvement began in 2012. This is due to the fact that our founder, Eric Choi, was mentally and emotionally exhausted with health issues (read section 2) and needed 2010 and 2011 to recuperate, reflect and plan.

Building LAN/WAN Professional (Starting A New Life) - Beginning in 2012, Eric Choi took the lessons from the previous 20 years to develop a set of services that initially focused on helping members fast track their careers and also transform their personal quality of life. Eric decided to limit the number of new members until the services were solidified and dedicated the next 8 years to solidifying those services.


  1. Finding A Partner (Refine Service) - Eric knew he needed to be financially frugal while he dedicated himself to developing the life-changing services and needed a partner in life to help with this. Eric was fortunate enough to find a special person in Akemi who helped Eric simplify his personal life. For the first time in Eric’s life, he slowed down and focused on refining instead of growing.
  2. Learn 40+ (Comprehensive Placement) - Since 2012, LAN/WAN Pro worked closely with its members to create a 5-part system that helps them acquire real-world skills 40+ times faster. As effective as this training was, the skills required for getting the job are different than the skills to do a job. Starting in 2014, a comprehensive placement system was created that improved success to over 80%.
  3. Right Candidate (Most Critical Factor) - By 2016, Eric realized that approving the RIGHT member is the most CRITICAL factor for success. Based on this, we created a 2-step qualification process that resulted in a stellar success rate of 90%+ by 2018 even though our process did not fully validate they were the RIGHT member or share our CORE VALUES. This would become a problem in 2020.
  4. Quality Of Life Benefits (At Work & Home) - From the beginning, Eric knew that transforming the personal quality of life is as important as career advancement. For this reason, LAN/WAN Professional started informally offering quality of life services beginning with helping negotiate better workdays/schedules, improving member’s credit, relocation, and even helping to buy a house, handling investments, etc.
  5. Staying Connected To Son (Starting A Family) - Throughout this period, Eric made sure to see his son, Adam, who lives in Europe at least once a year, and stay connected. In addition, Eric and Akemi decided to have a family. Unfortunately, this is not easy when you are over 40. After many years including the painful loss of their first daughter Emma at birth, they had their beautiful baby girl Anna in 2019.
  6. Helping Staff/Family (Sacrificed Values/Mission) - Starting in 2014 after stabilizing the company, Eric focused on helping his staff, the first “family he chose”, improve their lives including helping 4 directors buy their first homes and start living a quality life. Unfortunately, Eric had to temporarily sacrifice his mission. By 2019, he even sacrificed his core values of “doing good” versus just “being nice”.

Stellar Success (Wrong Members/Did Not Share Core Values) - By 2019, LAN/WAN Pro had a comprehensive service that fast track’s new members to earning $60,000 to over $130,000 per year with a stellar success rate that exceeds 90%. Unfortunately, many were WRONG members who had the skills to be successful but did not share our CORE VALUES. Just as bad, they did not THINK, WORK & LIVE as Consultants.

10 Year Plan (Become A Global Organization Of Consultants) - By 2019, LAN/WAN Pro had a transformative service with a stellar success rate even though we were approving WRONG members (read above). Just as bad, Eric Choi sacrificed his mission & values to help others. Inspired by the loss of his first daughter & mother, Eric Choi launched his 10-year plan to become a GLOBAL organization of Consultants & Leaders.

2020 to 2024: Losing Mom, Coronavirus, Lawsuit & “Creating Family” Of Consultants

As stated above, LAN/WAN Pro started 2020 with a 10-year global plan. Unfortunately, the CORONAVIRUS caused us to close down for 6 months and lose millions in revenues. In addition, we received a BOGUS class action lawsuit that took SIGNIFICANT time and financial resources to resolve. In spite of this, we fully virtualized our services and expanded to launch consulting and quality-of-life services.

Losing Mother (Inspiration For LAN/WAN Professional) - The inspiration for LAN/WAN Pro including its core values comes from the love and values Eric received from his mother. Unfortunately, Eric’s mom was told she had terminal cancer in the winter of 2019 and passed away in the summer of 2020. Her memory continues to inspire Eric to make LAN/WAN Pro a global organization of Consultants and “Leaders”.


  1. Founder’s Life (New Baby & Losing Mom) - Mr. Choi started 2020 with a beautiful newborn baby girl (born 11/24/2019) and would have loved to focus his energy on enjoying this special period of his life. Unfortunately, Mr. Choi’s mother (the most important person in his life) was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. After 2 rounds of Chemotherapy, she passed away in October 2020.
  2. Coronavirus (Closing Down & Losing Millions) - On March 15, 2020, the US government announced the lockdowns that began with the closure of airports. As a company that depended on candidates & members attending onsite camps, this caused us to CLOSE DOWN for 6 months. Just as bad, we lost millions in scheduled and potential revenues like so many other companies worldwide.
  3. Bogus Lawsuit (Pay Extra for Integrity) - In addition, we received a baseless lawsuit (money grab) and were offered a “settlement” that would have SAVED $150,000+ and 300+ hrs but required us to acknowledge a LIE. Despite everything above, our founder believed our integrity cannot be bought and FOUGHT. We “settled” by December 2020 after the other party acknowledged the lawsuit “may be wrong”.
  4. Investing In Future (Virtualized Services) - With the extra time we had, we invested in the company to virtualize 100% of our services to be available remotely from anywhere in the United States. This eliminated miscellaneous travel and related expenses. Even better, you can receive all of our services with minimal impact on your work and life schedule, especially after you become a successful member.
  5. TRANSFORMING To Consulting (B2B) - We also realized that our most successful members had a consulting business that not only provided higher-level opportunities but also significant tax/business benefits. For this reason, starting in 2020, we officially converted to a business consulting membership. This resulted in a SIGNIFICANT benefit to our members that enhanced their wealth-building.
  6. Expand Services (LIVE As A Consultant) - Starting in 2022, we wanted to help our members also LIVE as Consultants and transformed the informal quality of life services that we have been offering for the past 10+ years into a set of formal services that included credit building, saving, and investing to help our members build their WEALTH to “work retired” within 5 to 20 years.

Creating The “Family” Of Consultants (Based on Shared Core Values) - Through the years, Mr. Choi developed relationships with key staff & members that are closer to that of a family member. By 2023, Mr. Choi rediscovered his core values and expanded the “family we choose” to ALL staff & members based on shared CORE VALUES. The change TRANSFORMED the relationship we have with EVERY staff & member.

2025 to 2026: Launching IKONS, A Membership Organization Of Consultants & Leaders

LAN/WAN Pro is first and foremost a membership organization of CONSULTANTS & LEADERS who just happen to be working in the LAN/WAN industry as this is one of the best industries for career growth and business opportunities. With that stated, our services and members can be successful in any high-end job category including other parts of information technology (IT), entertainment and the internet.

Getting Ready To Go Global (In Every High End Job Category) - In preparation for this expansion, LAN/WAN Pro officially changed its corporate name to IKONS Inc back in 2023 and now uses LAN/WAN Pro as a DBA. Sometime in 2025, we will officially change our name to IKONS throughout the company including website and online. The following are highlights of our plan to get READY to go GLOBAL.


  1. Right Staff & Members (Attributes & Shared Values) - As you already know, the RIGHT staff and members are the MOST CRITICAL factor to success. In addition, IKONS is seeking staff and members who will become part of the “family we choose”. For both reasons, we RESET both our existing staff & members and also solidify the staff hiring & membership approval process through 2025.
  2. Expand QOL Services (“Work Retired” & LIVE) - In addition, we will continue to solidify our quality of life (QOL) services by helping our members LIVE as a Consultant including being able to save at least $5,000 to over $15,000 per month and learn to INVEST those savings to build their wealth so that they can “work retired” within 5 to 20 years while they concurrently have an AMAZING life.
  3. Permanent Membership (Optimize Professional) - We have informally provided higher-level membership services for over 10 years and officially launched the first permanent PROFESSIONAL membership that upgrades our members to $120,000 to over $300,000+ back in 2023. We will solidify this membership by the end of 2024 and use 2025 to further optimize this membership.
  4. Solidify Consultant (Earn $240,000 to $500,000+) - In addition, we have high-level members informally receiving the consultant membership. We will officially launch our Consultant membership in 2025 which is designed to help top members earn $240,000 to $500,000+ and build their wealth to “work retired” faster in just 8 to 15 years while they concurrently have a RICH life nationally.
  5. Launch IKON (Become an Owner/Founder) - We will also launch our IKON membership that allows our BEST members who can truly THINK, WORK & LIVE as a Consultant to become an owner/founder of their own “local” virtual chapters and to earn $500,000 to $1,000,000+. Equally important, fast track to “working retired” in 5 to 10 years and have a WEALTHY global lifestyle.
  6. Create A Visible Online Presence (Nationwide) - Finally, we will upgrade our website and create a visible online presence on social media including Facebook, Linked In, Instagram and more including offering an easy to use subscription based online service that gives you an introduction to our TRANSFORMATIVE services at a reasonable price BEFORE you apply for membership.

Building A Nationwide (“Family” Of Consultants & Leaders) - We will continue building and expanding our “family” of Consultants & Leaders over the next 2 years (2025 & 2026) with RIGHT staff and members in every major company in every major industry. In addition, we will also launch a secure social networking site that allows our staff/members to share, collaborate and help each other attain WORK & LIFE success.

2027 to 2029: Expanding IKONS To Be A GLOBAL Organization Of Consultants & Leaders

By 2027, we will be growing our IKON virtual chapters nationwide starting in major cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, DC, San Francisco, Dallas and Chicago then expand to more regional cities. By 2028, we will start to expand globally starting with Western European countries such as the United Kingdom, Germany and France and Asian countries such as Japan and South Korea to name a few.

Expand To Other Industries (Consultants Are Needed Everywhere) - In addition, Consultants and Leaders are needed in every high-end industry. For this reason, we will expand to other industries starting with other parts of information technology (IT) beginning with network systems and applications, AI and automation. In addition, we will look into other industries with a high concentration of consultants as highlighted below


  1. Grow IKON Virtual Chapters (Franchise) - We will have a comprehensive, systematic and fully virtualized “local” chapter Franchise structure that will allow our BEST members to LAUNCH a “Local” chapter to help qualified candidates within their community and benefit from their success. The growth of our franchise is only limited by how many IKON level members we can develop.
  2. Develop Key Partnerships (Vendors & Agencies) - We currently have many informal relationships with key staffing agencies, managed services providers and consulting companies. We will convert these relationships into more formal partnerships and expand those partnerships to include major technology manufacturers, developers and any other organizations that can be a benefit to our members.
  3. Strategic Alliances Globally (Key Countries) - We understand that for us to have a presence in some countries including South Korea and India to name a few, we will need to develop strategic alliances with key companies within those countries. Based on this recognition, we will develop partnerships and alliances with any critical organization as long as they are also in line with our core values.
  4. Building A Global Presence (Be A Known Name) - In addition, we will have a social media and marketing team committed to creating a global presence to ensure that we are a known name in the industries we want to be part of. With that stated, we DO NOT want to be an organization that EVERYONE knows but an organization that anyone who should know KNOWS.
  5. Member To Member WORK Sharing (Globally) - We will have a secure WORK networking site that is only available to our members where you can communicate, collaborate on work related activities, and partner on key consulting jobs. This website will allow you to find your future “contractor” for long term projects or find your next high end consulting gig not only locally but globally.
  6. Motivate/Connect Globally (LIVE As Consultant) - Finally, we will have a secure SOCIAL networking site along with virtual and onsite events, conferences that allow our members to share their LIFE journeys, virtual groups based on hobbies and interests locally, nationally and globally, and simply help each other LIVE as a Consultant and have an AMAZING life for our members and their family.

Global Community Of Consultants & Leaders (“Family We Choose”) - By 2029, we hope to have Consultants & Leaders in virtually every major country working for some of the top countries and government agencies. When this occurs, you will have high level people as “family” in virtually every major organization globally. What is the value of this? Remember, it is now just what you know but also WHO YOU KNOW.
