    hows it going? :D

    After researching a training course I stumbled across this site and after noticing how well informed this place is I decided that it would be a wise move to register and learn more about training courses and get to know people on this forum.

    Hi Welcome,

    Some people on here will be able to advise you on courses but most people self study.

    From the research I have done it seems as if a A+ is a very useful course to do, one thing im still trying to find out is how much it costs?

    Have a look on amazon

    The last time I looked the pc technician street smarts was £12.99 and the A+ all in one was £30.

    They're both hefty reads and youre paying for good material.
