Hi Everbody I'm Robin,

I have been selling PC's for the last twenty odd years - starting with 5 1/4" disk drive, 128MB Ram & DOS. I never gained any qualifications and am thinking that at my stage of life, 50's, I need a change. I did try programming in Pascal & Java a few years ago but lost interest. With the C Crunch it pays to have another string to your bow so the idea of certification appeals to me.

I responded to an advert by Advent Computer Training who came on a little strong, I just wanted to know what other users thought of them and e - academy in Cardiff. Would they recommend and what are the likely costs of A+.

Anyway I think I will go away and read some more comments by more experienced users before committing and hard earned cash.

 

Hi Robin & welcome to CF

Instead of paying a trainig provider, why don't you self study the A+?

It's a hell of a lot cheaper than going the tp route. The recommended books are the A+ Certification All-in-One Exam Guide, Sixth Edition and PC Technician Street Smarts.

Good luck for whichever route you decide to take.
