    Hmmmm, after being a thick on my course, ive just seen something that i have never ever thought or considered before this wee and i must say i feel absolutey stupid for not realising it sooner


    Ok Ic3?

    if i was aiming to take an A+ course, would this be part of the modules? or is this a pre- A+ course?

    Don’t quote me on this fella but I think it is a completely different course. I could be wrong as I haven’t done my A+ but I believe them to be separate qualifications.

    After a quick overview of the IC3 overview at http://www.certiport.com/portal/common/ImageLibrary/ic3overview.gif , the IC3 certification seems more like a "computer user" certificate rather than the "computer technician" certificate that the CompTIA A+ is. On a related note, Certiport is the organization that issues the IC3 certificates, as well as the Microsoft Office Specialist certificates.

    I hope this helps.

    Cheers lee and Rostros, thats actually just more or less confirmed what i thought.

    I cant believe i havnt thought about it sooner, I must be getting supider by the years gone by. Based on my previous IT experience, I was actually signed up for the A+ course, Not going to get into another beat the course provider topic, but by sending me the wrong material, it may have given me a hope of getting Out of my contract.


    I still cant believe it didnt cross my mind earlier
