    Hey All,

    I have some staff that require Desktop and Printer trouble shooting course.

    Can anyone recommend any?

    We currently have a company that does all our printer issues and advance desktop fixes but we want to do it all inhouse.

    We are able to invest into training but can anyone recommend any courses that would be perfect for this?

    Many thanks
    Elliot

    Do you mean IT staff or end-users?

    I would probably suggest an A+ course, gives you the basics on computer and printer hardware.

    So, these are either IT Professionals that are not working in Support (Developers etc... and therefore shouldn't be supporting anything)

    or

    They are IT Support staff who can't yet do basic support?

    Hmmmmm :unsure

    Trial and Error is the best way to learn.

    Why are you wanting to ditch the external IT support company? I’m thinking that is the bigger issue here.

    Do you have the capacity to do this in-house? If so you appear to be overstaffed. :)

    Because the external company costs a lot and we don't really user them that much, would be much better to do it all in house.
