IT Training Courses Certification Reviews
I have been very pleased with my results this month after under going a cornea graph on my right eye and been in some extreme pain with my eye. it as been frustrating only been able to study for short periods because I have been limited to the amount I can read and it as been hard to concetrate too.
on top of this I have still to hold my job down and look after my young family.
I never expected the result I have had, as I have found the n+ part of my course a little difficult at times, but I have had some great help from my tutors.

My achievement this month have been the scoring of a 100% in each of my TMA's for the A+ Essentials section 1 part B (2006 Objectives) course. This I consider significant because 5 months ago I knew nothing about computers and did not even have an e-mail address because it all looked too complicated for me. Now after enrolling with Skillstrain I feel motivated and encouraged to enrol for a degree course in IT after my training with Skillstrain. This is coupled with the fact that I work over 10 hours a day from Wednesday to Monday with only a day off. Now I have been able to upgrade the RAM memory and the HDD of my pc after over just 3 months of enrolling with the college and I feel I can do in no time.
Thank you.

I have completed TMA 8. I work as a chef, full time, generally doing a 55-60hr work week. I am in the middle of a divorce and dont get to see my children. I use a 3year old lap top the is in serious need of replacement but cant afford. I belive I have worked through a fair bit of adversity just to get this far and will continue to study hard to gain a career in the IT industry.

I completed the compTIA A+ Exam last October 2006. I felt a great sense of pride, that after years of not studying I could have accomplished such a feat.
Now I have my own IT business and I am continuing to study with Skills Train towards my CCNA qualification.

It is surprising how at times things turn out to be. I had no knowledge about the computer. I only used the computer to write my essays and print them out, that was it. Every time I encountered the problems i.e. pressing a wrong burton and the work is lost, rebooting, I had to call my dean of studies who used to help me. Then one day, I was running late with the deadline the following and I stayed late at night to finish writing up the work. I did not put the margins properly and it could not print. Being late, I could not call for help. I was really disheartened and nearly got depressed. Then it came to my mind that, if I knew the computer, I would not be in this terrible messy as I would know the problem and work at it. So in December, 2004, I received a leaflet at my door concerning the computer studies. I was afraid to call but after a few days, I gathered the courage and called. Within few days I was told something was visiting me. I was given a test to see at which level I was in the computer, and I said, I only know how to open and close the computer and write essays on it and print them out. The tutor was understanding. When I first receied the first lessaon, it was a little bit hard and almost gave up. But the fear of calling someone whenever, I encountered the problem was a driving force. Now I am enjoying the course and I am happy that I started it.
YOU ARE NOT ALONE:
Do not get discouraged you can do it. Believe in yourself and know that there are others who have had the feeling you are experiencing. Reading through other people's stories, was great encourgement. It is good to share our experiences that is when you discouver that you are not alone. The tutors are very understanding and stand by your side all the way through.
I am not on TMA 10 and have got the momentum to go on till the end.
If others can then you can too. For "where there is a will, there is a way."

I have been studying the A+ course for just 2 weeks and I have already completed Section 1 Part A and am currently waiting for Part B. I do not have that much time to study considering that I currently work in a demanding, responsible job managing a corporate car hire account for Asda which is a big test for me at the same time. The position is about to end but it has really shown me what I am capable of; to manage this course and the job at the same time.

Working under pressure via going to college plus doing this course and achieving better results than I use to get, Havnt had to be resubmitted for a very long time with this course.
-David
I started this course last year and have got much better marks than I expected with only having a couple of resubmissions and restarting the course to do the 2006 objectives, which was worth starting again as this is more tecnical, At 52 yrs old and learning is possible harder than when you are young I am surprised that I am copeing so well and getting such good marks for my work
