SkillsTrain Reviews from Students

I have been on the CCNA course for over a year now and I will say though it's not been very easy combining studying with raising a family and working as well, I have enjoyed the training as it is self paced and so doesn't put me under so much pressure to finish each module.

I have been able to learn a great deal since I started the training and I have also been able to use the knowledge gained in getting job as a service desk analyst in the public sector. I am pleased with this and I am confident that by the time I finish the whole course I'll be well equipped to for my next role.

After joining this course I think I have achieved a lot. I am working a full time job but still managing time for my studies. I am regularly sending my TMA's and getting good results as well. Before,I was living a normal life just working but now after introduced by this course I think that I have got something to study for my better career so I always study hard. I used to think that I can never study IT and change prospects of my life but now I even myself can't believe that I am actually doing it. My families especially my husband is very proud of me when he look my TMA results and the results also encouraging me do better better next time. I am looking forward to that day when I'll get my first job in IT. So all these things are the greatest achievements for me.

I have just completed section Two Part B. I have never done any payroll before. In my first tutor-assessed assignment 13 I just achieved a mark of 52% which is very low for me, because I did not understand it properly. So I revised the chapters again and studied harder. On my next assignment I achieved a mark of 95%. So studying harder helped me with understanding the payroll theory and achieving higher points.

Hi, I am a student from Romania, I study in my spare time,is a good way to learn and if you hope to change your life in the end of the course. When I start this course I found it very easy, I like to study about computer, is like a hobby now for me, I love it. I think if you don't like what are you studyng is beter for that person to do something what he/she enjoys, this is what is that matters for me in this course. I enjoy what I am studyng, good luck to everybody.

I went from going at a snails pace through this course into a man possessed and am now spending much more time on studying and taking tests. A quick look at my track record will attest that I was dragging my heels a bit at the beginning but am now powering through very quickly. In my defence, I've had 2 little daughters born in the past 2.3 years and it's been a bit busier than when we were a bit younger, hence my training for IT and Triathlons has suffered. But I feel back on track now!

Since I started my course back in October all I wanted was to prove to myself tht I could do it....everyone around me was suspicious and reluctant about it but I never looked back.

I am a 38 year old mother and not only I am looking after my 6 year old son,but also my disabled mother is living with me at present. I am working in the retaiil and this course will give me an opportunity to do better in the future.

I have completed my first 3 TMA's and that is something I am very proud of.
It is very hard as english is not my first language,but hopefully as I go on it will become easier.

I would like to take this opporunity to thank you for taking time to read this.

Despite the pressures of caring for my one year old son and the household chore, I have achieved excellent results in the last 3 months. I have been highly motivated, working hard and received good support from my family and tutors alike. This has proved to be very fruitful and enabled me to make rapid strides in my training with very good marks. This shows that with right determination and efforts I can reach my precious goal. I thank the Skills train team for providing me the platform to rediscover my potential.

I feel I should be considerd for this months award due to the hard work I have been putting in even though I have just had my ninth operation on my left hand so I am working one handed and the worry I have due to my daughter awaiting a heart operation which could be any time from now too August, still with all these things in my life I am still able to keep up a good standard on my work and I will be sending in Assignment 7 later this evening hoping keeping my score high. thank you for your time, Darren
