A+ consists of four exams and study sections, but your only requirement is to achieve certification in two to be thought of as qualified. For this reason, most training colleges restrict their course to just 2 areas. Yet learning about all 4 will give you a more confident perspective of it all, something you’ll discover is an important asset in the commercial world.

Once on the CompTIA A+, you will develop an understanding of how to build, fix, repair and work in antistatic conditions. Fault finding and diagnostic techniques through hands on and remote access are also covered.

Should you want to work towards looking after computer networks, add the very comprehensive CompTIA Network+ to your training package. Including Network+ will put you in a position to apply for more interesting jobs. Also look at the Microsoft networking qualifications (MCP, MCSA and MCSE).

Often, students don’t think to check on a vitally important element – the way the company actually breaks down and delivers the courseware sections, and into how many separate packages.

The majority of training companies will set up a program typically taking 1-3 years, and send out each piece as you complete each section or exam. This sounds reasonable until you consider the following:

Maybe the order of study insisted on by the company won’t suit you. And what if you don’t finish all the sections inside their defined time-scales?

To be in the best situation you would have all your study materials couriered to your address right at the beginning; the complete package! Thus avoiding any future problems that could impede your capability of finishing.

Make sure that all your certifications are what employers want – don’t bother with programmes that only give in-house certificates.

From an employer’s viewpoint, only the major heavyweights like Microsoft, CompTIA, Adobe or Cisco (for example) will get you into the interview seat. Anything less just won’t hit the right spot.

It’s likely that you probably enjoy fairly practical work – a ‘hands-on’ personality type. Typically, the painful task of reading endless manuals can be just about bared when essential, but it doesn’t suit your way of doing things. Consider interactive, multimedia study if learning from books is not your thing.

Memory is vastly improved when we use multiple senses – educational experts have expounded on this for decades now.

Locate a program where you’ll get a host of DVD-ROM’s – you’ll start with videos of instructor demonstrations, followed by the chance to use virtual lab’s to practice your new skills.

Each company you’re contemplating should be able to show you some samples of their courseware. Expect video tutorials, instructor led classes and a variety of interactive modules.

Seek out CD and DVD ROM based physical training media if possible. You’re then protected from broadband outages, failure and signal quality issues etc.

How long has it been since you considered your job security? For most of us, this only rears its head when we experience a knock-back. Unfortunately, the lesson often learned too late is that true job security doesn’t really exist anymore, for all but the most lucky of us.

It’s possible though to hit upon security at market-level, by digging for areas of high demand, tied with a shortage of skilled staff.

Taking the Information Technology (IT) market as an example, a recent e-Skills survey brought to light a skills deficit throughout the country in excess of 26 percent. Meaning that for every 4 jobs that are available across computing, there are only 3 trained people to do them.

This single fact in itself clearly demonstrates why the UK requires considerably more trainees to get into the industry.

Surely, this really is such a perfect time to train for IT.
