SkillsTrain MCSA Course

Managed to complete my MCSA course work in a shorter time that specified studying part time, combining with my full time work and home duties. I have passed 3 MCPs and I am an exam away to obtain my MCSA. Can't wait for the next level. ALL THINGS ARE INDEED POSSIBLE!!

Over the past two months I have been studying very hard for promotion at work. One of my key tasks was to pass my A+ and N+ exams to help put a case forward for promotion. In December 2007 I passed both external exams to certify as an A+ IT Technician and now have the certificate on my wall at work. Then to make things even better I sat and passed my CompTIA N+ exam in February and am now awaiting that certificate to go alongside my A+ one. My manager has just said he is going to support my case for promotion and fingers crossed it will be made true these coming months. All of this is down to the course materials received from Skillstrain making the studying a lot easier with excellent course materials.

Thanks

I have just passed the final exam (70-291) for my MCSA Certification, with a score or 889, which I believe is pretty good. Over the past 12 months I have taken and passed first time my A+, N+, and all three MCSA exams, but I am entering this month due to the completion of the certification and my score.

I have studied very hard for the last 2 month after having gotten married, moved house twice, being attacked on the street and sustaining a stabbing wound last year. I stepped up my studies beginning of this year and have passed my first exam A+ Essentials with 750/900 marks! I am now going to take the Second exam. I have only reached half way in my A+ study books and was really determined to pass even before completing the second set of books! It took lots of hard work and late nights!

Consistantly high marks- so far out of the seven TMA's I have attempted, the lowest mark I have recieved is 89%.

Managing to set up a study timetable that allows me to revise and to study new material consistantly, even while learning that I have to "learn" all over again how to study!

Using the knowledge I have so far learned to repair my own PC, which had suffered from a long-standing BIOS problem. It now works perfectly, and recognises all the hardware properly! (Beforehand, it refused to recognise the size of the HD properly, even when configured). Although with the knowledge I had gained, flashing the BIOS was a nervous experience!

I am pleased to say that so far I have achieved 90% or greater on my TMA's which I am extremely pleased about. But more then that I am extremely proud of myself for completing the two units on networks. I had very limited understanding of networks, but with the clear and precise text I can say without a doubt that I know more about networks now then I have ever done previously. It May seem like small potatoes but to me, the network parts of the course I knew would be hard, they were infact quite easy to understand due to the fact that it was written clearly and in a way in which I could understand. Makes me want to get the A+ done and move onto the N+ as quick as possible.

I have never been one for studing and could never apply myself to it, for e.g I started this course in three years ago with the ambition to finsh it quickly but I never actually started until November 2007. Since then I have seen what the course work has to offer and I have been blown away by how easy it is to get my head down and actually study. The course work is fantastic and easy to get to grips with, I May only have just completed part a in the Comptia A+ section but I have learned and achieved alot and look forward to what this course holds for me not only in work prospects but what it has done for me as a person and that is all thanks to skillstrain who have made it possible.

The most significant accomplishment for me was my new job. After a long wait, I have moved into the IT industry. I am now working as a Technical Sales Advisor. Prior to this I was working as a part-time cleaner!

In the interview I had an assessment to complete. Knowledge and understanding, which I only got from studying with SkillsTrain, assisted me a lot. Lacking the knowledge of this course, I can guarantee I would not have been successful for my Advisor position. Before I stared this course I had no knowledge with regards to the computing environment but now I have encompassed a lot of things which has aided me to achieve my goal.

Furthermore, using the knowledge from studying the course I have helped many family, friends and neighbours with setting up their computers, wireless networks etc.

I haven't covered a great deal yet, however I am astonished at the skills I have acquired so far. My results have also been very good. I have achieved over 85% in my recently submitted TMAs. I very much like the style of the presentations, support notes and most importantly the excellent live Internet training labs, which is unbelievably helpful.

I am proud & thrilled of being part of such a great IT learning centre. I wish to convey my gratitude & appreciation to all at SkillsTrain.

Thank you and Well Done.

After months of trying to juggle the studying, homelife, kids and work (nights) I can finally see that it will all be worth it in the end. Just sent in TMA 10 and waiting for the results, still averaging 95% and I actually know that the work that I have done is paying off. I recently upgraded the memory and the graphics on my home pc and it now works like a dream. Actually being phoned up to come and try and sort out peoples PCs (for a fee !!) and I have also got a placement with a local IT solutions firm in order to broaden my horizons in the IT world. Still got a long way to go but I am no longer out of my depth and will be be looking forward to my career change, probably after Christmas.

I am very pleased with my decision to change my career into IT after having been in Human Resources field for 10 years. After just two months of commencing my COMPTIA A+ with SkillsTrain, I was able to move across to a job as a Junior HelpDesk Analyst.

I now feel more secure in my current role, knowing that only I can stop myself from progressing to a more professionally and financially rewarding career. I could not be any happier.

Thanks SkillsTrain.

The Live Internet Training was awesome. Well done guys. A few obvious points in the course that needed to be covered but still a few things in there I never knew. Very well presented

Having recovered from a serious car crash 2005/06, I was unable to retain short term information, suffering from blackouts, given the all clear to return to work in April 2007 I am now studying for my MCSA course and feeling confident in being able to study and retain the information learnt.
