Greetings,

I am currently unemployed and wish to formally start working in IT. I have quite alot of hardware experience, gained over the years as well as working part-time self employed. I would consider myself an advanced XP user.

I have decided I would like to go for MCDST Certification to get an entry level position. After reading through the forum I notice that some colleges (like Tresham in Northants) offer concessions for the unemployed. However, I live in Derby and have found it diifcult finding any local college who offer the courses with concessions. Is anyone here aware of colleges within a 100 mile radius who do?

Shefield Hallam University do the whole cert. for £1200 including one sit of each exam, but do not offer concessions. The advantage is that this over a 2 day and a 3 day course, meaning certs. are obtained quickly.

Any advice would be most appreciated.
