    Hi,

    Has anyone tried using CBT video training Cds instead of/ in addition to the usual study books for their A+ certification? They do seem to cost a bit, obviously you can get them on e-bay cheaper, but having just purchased one that was for the 2000 objectives :x you never know exactly what you're getting....

    Would never recommend them as a substitute, but I do feel they make a useful addition to good text for a change of format at times. Obviously they can never contain the level of detail of a book, but can be helpful at explaining actual concepts that books may not as well.

    Yeah, i agree with Gav on this one. I think video/interactive training is a good add on to text. It also helps some topics to sink in.

    Dunno about anyone else but CBT Nuggets is very limited!

    I find that the only good stuff from Learnkey is those that are presented by Adam Spurlock - he's a real expert!

    Trainsignal CBTs are quite good as is Testout - Testout really focuses on interactive scenrios with mock desktops and stuff like that!

    But yes, any CBT is an excellent addition to your overall training approach!
