I never achieve anything in my life after I finished school, but now I feel this time around I will achieve something. when I started the course I knew nothing about PC Hardward and maintenance, but I have gained an exellent understanding. My average is 90 percent on my tutor marked assignment through studying hard. I hope I will carry on trying my best to achieve my goal in life to became a network and PC technician.

I got 90% on TMA 01 and TMA02, it might not sound to important to other people but it does to me, because I have never succeeded in anything,I now realise that hard work and dedication does pay off.

I HAVE STUDIED VERY HARD AND WORK FULL TIME AND HAVE HAD FANTASTIC RESULTS IN MY TUTOR MARKED ASSINGMNETS.

I have read some of the other success stories - I felt quite moved by what some people have over came and dealt with. I myself came down with M.E in April 2006, it wasn't until January this year that I managed to sustain studying again.I work in a telecomm's network management office, I find myself talking about technical subjects that I would have never had known enough about to contribute to. I find the 2006 objectives Compti A+ much better it is laid out,and in a clearer format. I have never felt rushed or under pressure thanks to the terms of the course. I only ever seem to email my tutor team but no matter when I do, I always get a swift response.I have just got 97% on my last TMA after re-submitting it, it felt really good as I was worried I had made the same mistakes!
Lastly I would just like to wish everyone luck, but its not luck what lets you succeed.....its you!

I have been receiving until my latest assignment 100% for the last 5. This is despite having had alot of problems with my health and being stuck in bed unable to do anything for most of the week.Despite my illnesses I have still been ready to submit the next assignment either on the day I receive the results or the day after.I have been able to use my skills that I have learnt to install and trouble shoot the new internet hub so that it is working properly.I have also been able to help some of my friends out with some of their problems as well as my husband who is doing a computer course.

I have always be one who enjoyed building ang installing software for my own pc's. I recently took the bull by the horns and entered myself for the A+, N+, CCNA course and have enjoyed every minute since I started. I am a Joiner by trade and decided that I want a career in IT and am working hard toward that goal. This month so far I have submitted TMA 1-4 and have acheived 100% for TMA1, 73% TMA2, 90% TMA3 and 100% TMA4. I plan to continue to acheive high marks in all tests and have my qualifications within 18 months.

I managed to get rid of a virus on a friends computer. It could not be deleted using anti virus software, so I had to get rid of it in safe mode by changing the name of the file so it could be deleted. I then repaired the mbr, and computer is now working fine, I also defragged it and installed firewalls and spyware software as a preventitive.

I have started a network course .... and achieved 95% and 83% in my first two units with my third being marked as we speak. I have never attained a mark this high in all my schooling so I think I am doing really well.

At the moment I am a fulltime BT Broadband Engineer,fulltime field work, always dealing with faults and repairs.Therefore this course will really be helpfull for my bright future. I have a planned to study upto CCNP. That is why I am really concentrating with this current course.

I must confess that my course with skills train that is A+, N+, CCNA & CCNP has given me alot of confidence to face the future as an IT professional.
IT has always being my dream, little did I know that, that dream will come true some day.I never had the resources for the course but thanks to career development.I now pay in bits for the realisation of a dream career.

I recently finished a degree at university and wasn't sure where I wanted to go, a common problem for students. I ended unemployed for a while and really started to feel down. I decided to take up a certification course in IT after seeing SkillsTrain advertised. I decided to take the A+ and N+ and go on to take the CCNA.
After completing the A+ I received a chance to work on an IT help desk. This really has helped me chose a career path and given me something to aim for. I have almost completed the N+ now and since starting my IT career I have been given the opportunity to progress to second line support.

Thank you for all your continued help.

Was it a small achievement generally, I am proud to say that my accomplishment so far is not a small one. I have completed my A+ and N+ programmes. I am currently waiting for my password and username to reach me so that I could start off my CCNA. While studying with skill train college, I managed to get a certificate in mathematics with the Open University at the same time. I am proud to say that I will be rounding off my degree in ICT with the Open university by October this year. My programme with skill train really helped and is still helping me a great deal with my Open University programme. The skill train programme gave me a lifeline and a much desired hope. I am proud to say that I got a skilled work due to the experience I have gained so far from my skill train courses. My company have decided to enrol me on a work-based ICT course(NVQ level 2) because I passed the preliminary qualification test for the course. Maybe,all these achievements wouldn't have been possible if I didn't start my programme with skill train college. I am thinking of enrolling for further studies with skill train once I complete my CCNP programme. The flexibility of study and feedbacks from tutors has helped me a lot and I don't think I want to stop studying with the college yet.

Recently I was diagnosed with Crohns disease I have had to adopt a new life style in every aspect of my life be it social, work and home. Dealing with the condition and being in and out of hospital often, made me put this course on the back burner but has made me believe that you have to deal with what life throws at you but also take the opportunities that are presented to you and make the most of them. I don't revel in sympathy, and as far as I'm concerned there are folks a lot worse off than me. You get out of life what you put in, so this course has given me a very real opportunity to prove that statement!!

I have very recently passed my Comptia A Plus 2003 exams (220-301 & 220-302) and am still continuing with my course to aspire to next achieving Network Plus qualifications. This has come to fruition after a fairly tough few years for me, with having to endure several surgical operations on my arms, legs and hips following diagnosis of a rare bone cancer condition.
I have also taken on the role, together with my wife, of foster parents to a difficult young child whose previous placement had broken down.
All this has been achieved with determination whilst holding down a full time administration job and helping my two other children to gain sucess in their GCSE's, and more recently, their BTec National Diploma college courses.
I am confident that if I can glean some success on this long and winding road to a successful career path then with a bit of determination you can too.

This course has changed my perception towards life. I was into business earlier and very unfortunately had met with serious losses and had to quit the business. I had tried all possible options to find work but was unable to get any work with future or career prospective. I then started looking for an option that could give me a career which has growth prospects and I was willing to learn from scratch. In my quest for such an option, I came across the skills train training programme and made an enquiry. After a detailed discussion with the career advisor, I felt that this is the right option and this is the only way I could get my life back on track. But I was a bit indifferent and skeptical as to whether I will be able to undergo a studying phase at this stage of my life. But I was determined to do this and made an effort to study even though I had a bit of delay with the initial start up. I have been an end user of computer for a very long time but didn't know anything about how it works. On commencing the course, there were initial difficulties with concentration on the course work but eventually, with my determination and hard work, I improved and things got much easier. Now I find the course very interesting which is well reflected by the submission of my TMA's and the pace I'm to doing them. I think this achievement of mine have paved way in gaining my self confidence back, which has made things easy for me and plays a major role in motivating me to complete the course as soon as possible and to succeed in life. My level of concentration has also improved and I have proved that in active submission of my TMA's.

It was just another day and with plans to make any achievement looking really slim because the rain was not only heavy but accompained with little wind enough to drag a man off his feet.as I made my way to class, I saw a classmate of mine who made a complained two days ago that is Laptop couldn't connect to the internet going towards the staff office.I got into the class and we were all waiting for the lecturer to come in all eyes turn to the door thinking it was the lecturer, but there goes charles again complaining he's connection couldn't be sorted out. I told him to bring it but he had this look on his face "a lecturer couldnt solve it how come you" so I went to him and ask him to log in its user name and password again which he did but the same thing happened, one thing I noticed was the that the WLAN switch at the bottom of he's laptop was turned off so I turned it on and amazingly BLA! its connected, so now every body is looking forward to me when its comes their computer.Good to be an hero sometimes.

I have submitted my first assignment after almost a year of signing up. I believe it is a great start after wanting to quit due to several personal difficulties.

I was Human Resources Professional and now I have decided to change my career. So started studying about computer. I kept timeframe for doing CCNA with in 5-6 months. In this regard, I planned my study, though its difficult to plan you even having different life activities but I am keeping my target in my mind.
Though I have worked with computer networks practically like once in my life had done work over Internet cafe networks. But I can't say that I am confident over my knowledge of networks becuase there are many computer terminologies and IT concepts. so I am considering myself newborn baby in computer field. By keeping all this picture in my mind, I decided to workhard and that is what I'm trying to do now ... Thus, I submitted my two assignments in five days and hopefully I'll do in the same way.... Why I am thinking to say this achievement because you have to concern number of times different books and networks sites to clear your concepts and it takes time.
Any way, I'll try my level best to do as much workhard as I can.
Thanks
