HI I WOULD LIKE TO THANK EVERYONE AT THE SKILLS TRAIN AND SAY THAT I AS A STUDENT RECOGNISE THE GOOD WORK THAT YOUR DOING TO ASSIST US/ME WITH MY STUDIES AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT.
I am doing my CCNA but currently still on my N+ module which I believe I have been getting on well with, I work as a full time support worker where I work with four people with learning disabilities, my job is simply to support then in their day to day lives, I have to fit in my studing shedule with my job and my family at home, I got married in December and just adjusting to family life with one child I got enrolled in this to develope my career in computing and for a better future hopefully to finish the course and get a good job and give a good life to my new son. I am giving it my best I have done well with the tma's that I have done already. am sure with the support from the tutor team and the course material offered I will make it all the way and my dreams will become reality.

I'm have just got a new better I.T job because prospective employers favour applicants who are studying with qualifications because they see an individual who is committed and ambitious. I think that fact that I am busy studying for my CCIE and MCSE helped me alot in gaining this new employment.

I have been strugling on some of the work and by reading the course work and then trying the answers like a mock exam helps to find out what, I can rember so that I do not have to keep relying on the course work material.
Then when you think you have only to have a gues on the answer it will not work. Some times you think you have done bad and you then get to find out that you have got through to the next part, and you feel over the moon.

HARDWORKING STUDENT, GET VERY GOOD RESULT.

I HAVE SCORED 100% MARKE IN MY LAST TWO ASSIGNMENT.

Top 

Since I started this course I known much more about computers, than when I started I had little idea on how to use email and I also did clait which I did not finish the course but now I can build a computer which I have already started, I have not finish it because I have't got the money for the material. I can install floppy disk drive, hard drive,and the buses with the motherboard and other devices which I bought in secondhand shop. I also spoke with a friend and he said to me he is sure I can sit for A+ Exams with the level I'm at. I have also gain more knowledge on this course on window installation, I'm really happy with the school and the team staff.

Since I was impressed with the IT System I started to know about it. I had no knowledge on IT at all then took a ECDL Course even when I was extremely busy on my job. I managed to level 2 cerificate at the end and which is helping me in my daily job. most of the work I do is in the computer.

Yes I have achieved basic knowledge on Software side of life but more you do more you want to know, I have very little knowledge on Computer Hardware in most case I get many problems to my own computer but I can do nothing, there for I wanted to do a course so that I can solve problem my self and even get a better job prospect when I retired. Luckily or eventually my friend impressed me about Skillstrain. It is my just a beginning of my IT career an am starting to see a lot out there that I can achive from this course.

Actually it has not being long I started this course but it has done a lot in my understanding of networking. when I first did networking courses during my undergraduate it was like a threat in my course, in that each time I remeber we will have network class I feel so sad because I hate when I engange in any thing I devoted my time and I will not see the effect of it in my knowlwege.

It seems I wasted all my preciouse time in the class because I gained just litle understanding. With N+ as a selective course to MSCA would have knocked off my urge to enroll with the course, but thanks to ur collegue that visited my house , she was able to explain everything and convince me with the course.

Hence, ever since I started the course am happy with it because there is a big difference in my knowledge of networking. In that I have confidence within me when discussing network with any one despite the fact that I have a baby who is always there to disturb when am reading but the course work material seems to be easy and clear to understand with the little tiome I put into the study.

Am glad to enroll with the course, I can't stop to be happy with myself of what a chnge in me.

I recently changed isp and couldn't login to this site. Now that I can, I found I got full marks for my TMA. I thought I had done terrible due to my TMA being a written assignment. I am really enjoying the course.

Top 

Well just undergoing the course was a step in the right direction for me, I have wanted to do this for a long time and never did, but now I have and am enjoying this so far. Already I have submitted three sets of TMA's the first three weeks of the month. Two of these I have received the answers back and have scored 100% on both and hopefully my third 100% is on its way, and currently I have just started the forth section of my course and will be ready to submit TMA 4 as soon as the third TMA answers are sent back to me. Even if I don't get voted for student of the month just to be on this course and receiving the positive answers back already make me a winner. Good luck to all others studying and entering the SOTM.

MY ACHIEVEMENTS SO FAR ARE TO DEMONSTRATE TO MY EMPLOYERS ALL THAT I HAVE LEARNT FROM MY COURSE SO FAR, THIS IS A BIG SUCCESS FOR ME.
MY RESULTS SO FAR ARE AN AVERAGE OF 90 TO 100% THAT IS BECAUSE OF THE INFORMATION SUPPLIED.

FIRST OF ALL I NEED TO SAY THAT I AM CURRENTLY JUGGLING MY COURSEWORK WITH 12 HOUR SHIFTS AT WORK AND TRYING TO SPEND TIME WITH MY SONS OF 1 AND 3.I HAVE MANAGED TO COMPLETE TMA 2 AND THREE OF MY A+ 2003 OBJECTIVES AND HAVE SINCE TRANSFERED ON TO THE 2006 OBJECTIVES.I HAVE COMPLETED TMA 1 2006 OBJECTIVES .AWAITING PROGRESS REPORT SO THAT I CAN COMPLETE TMA 2.ALL IN ALL I AM PRETTY CONFIDENT OF GOOD RESULTS AS I HAVE STUDIED VERY HARD FOR THE PAST THREE WEEKS

Over the past four weeks I have had the misfortune of having my wife in the I.C.U. of our local hospital, visiting daily two or three times a day, while at the same time keeping our home in order, washing and ironing, vacuuming and any other job that has required doing and also trying to keep on top of my course-work when I eventually arrived home in the mid-evening,completing three T.M.A's and receiving all but 5% from the total possible. I would like to think I was in contention for the top prize as I am trying to upgrade my existing computer so that I can get connected to broadband and spend more time on the course web site. I am pleased to inform you my wife has now been transferred to the H.D.U. and is making a slow and steady recovery.

I would like to enter for student of the month as I think that for a forty something year old to start studying again after 20 odd years is good going. Particularly as it is something completely new to him. I am proof that you can teach an old dog new tricks!!

After a great deal of soul searching I decided it was time to improve my abilities in order to try and start out in a new direction.

I have bitten off a great deal by enrolling on the CCNP course. Though not only am I doing CCNP, I am also doing A+, N+, and CCNA as a lead up to CCNP. I thought it would be good for me to have a well rounded and thorough knowledge of the area I hope to go into.

I had doubt as to my ability to start studying again but to be honest I have settled into the swing rather well. I have been achieving pleasing grades so far and I think reading over the set works twice and highlighting keywords has benefitted me greatly.

The aid received thus far has been brilliant, in particular the Lady from Nigeria has been really helpfull. Thanks for the support and I am really glad that I have started with your organisation!

Over the past few weeks I have successfully helped some people diagnose problems with there computers and offered advice on how to fix these problems, I have also fixed my mates pc just a couple of days ago, I took it apart and found that the P.S.U. had burnt out and today I am going round to fit the new one for him.

WHILE DOING THE A+ PART OF MY STUDY TIMETABLE, AND KEEPING DOWN A FULL TIME JOB, I HAVE ALSO PASSED MY LGV DRIVING TEST. I AM NOW CURRENTLY HALF WAY THROUGH MY N+ STUDY TIMETABLE.

Top 

Having just recently enroled on the course, I feel am am making very good progress to achieving my ultimate goal of working in IT. I have received two very good grades already and hope to achieve a lot more. Before I enroled in this course I didn't really know anything about computers. I study almost every night to achieve my qualifications as well as holding down a full time job.
I have noticed, since learning more on computers I am helping more & more people with thier own computers and problems, both personally and professionally.

HAVE NOT STUDIED FOR 25+ YEARS, NOW HAVE MORE CONFIDENCE IN RETRAINING, HAVE FOUND THAT I CAN LEARN MORE . HAVE SHOOK THE COB WEBS AWAY. GREY MATTER IS NOW WORKING ONCE MORE, LIFE IS FUN AGAIN. I NOW FEEL ALIVE.
