There are a total of 4 specialist training sectors in the A+ syllabus, of which 2 passes are needed for your A+ qualification. Be aware though that limiting yourself to 2 of the specialised areas could expose flaws in your knowledge when applying for a job. Choose a course with all 4 subjects - employers will notice the difference.
If you decide to become a student on the A+ training program you will develop an understanding of how to work in antistatic conditions and build and fix computers. You'll also cover fault-finding and diagnostic techniques, both remotely and via direct access.
Should you want to work towards looking after computer networks, you should add Network+ to the CompTIA A+ training you're doing. Including Network+ will put you in a position to get a higher paid position. Alternatively, you may prefer the Microsoft networking qualifications (MCP, MCSA and MCSE).
The age-old way of teaching, involving piles of reference textbooks, is usually pretty hard going. If all this is ringing some familiar bells, look for learning programmes that are on-screen and interactive.
Memory is vastly improved with an involvement of all our senses - learning experts have been saying this for years now.
Courses are now available on CD and DVD discs, where everything is taught on your PC. Video streaming means you can sit back and watch the teachers showing you precisely how it's all done, with some practice time to follow - via the interactive virtual lab's.
All companies should be able to show you a few samples of their courseware. You should hope for instructor-led videos and a variety of interactive modules.
You'll find that many companies will only provide purely on-line training; sometimes you can get away with this - but, think what will happen when you don't have access to the internet or you get slow speeds and down-time etc. It's much safer to rely on DVD or CD discs that removes the issue entirely.
Don't accept anything less than the current Microsoft (or relevant organisation's) accredited exam simulation and preparation packages.
Sometimes people can get confused by practising exam questions that don't come from the authorised examining boards. It's not uncommon that the question formats and phraseology is startlingly different and you should be prepared for this.
Ensure that you verify your knowledge through tests and simulated exams prior to taking the real thing.
An important area that is sometimes not even considered by trainees considering a training program is 'training segmentation'. This is essentially how the program is broken down into parts to be delivered to you, which can make a dramatic difference to what you end up with.
Often, you will join a program requiring 1-3 years study and get sent one module each time you pass an exam. It seems to make sense on one level, but consider these issues:
What would their reaction be if you find it difficult to do each and every module at the speed they required? Often the prescribed exam order doesn't come as naturally as some other structure would for you.
Ideally, you'd get ALL the training materials right at the beginning - giving you them all for the future to come back to - at any time you choose. This also allows you to vary the order in which you move through the program if you find another route more intuitive.
We'd all like to believe that our jobs will remain safe and our future is protected, but the growing likelihood for most jobs in the United Kingdom currently appears to be that security may be a thing of the past.
We're able though to reveal security at the market sector level, by searching for high demand areas, together with a lack of qualified workers.
The Information Technology (IT) skills deficit in the United Kingdom is standing at approx 26 percent, as noted by the latest e-Skills survey. To put it another way, this highlights that the UK can only find three qualified staff for each four job positions that are available now.
Properly trained and commercially educated new employees are consequently at a total premium, and it seems it will continue to be so for a long time to come.
It's unlikely if a better time or market circumstances is ever likely to exist for gaining qualification for this hugely expanding and developing sector.
