Starting My IT Course

[ssc456]

right guys i need a lil help and this is talking bout my future here so i wonna tink it through.

basicly i wonna job where i fix and repair computers but mostly on the hardware side so what course is ideal for me ?

im thinking the A+ is a nice highly recognised course but i have also seen The National BTEC Award In Computer Engineering

are there any others i should compare ??

ill be watching this thread, i have the same interests, only difference is i want to go into EMS as well...

The BTEC would probably be a good choice. So Are you looking to do pc support in a large company?

 

[ssc456]

well TBH my perfect job would be showing up to work and having a list of places / companies or homes, that have problems maybe new hardrive needs replacing new motherboard etc, and going to them 1 by 1 and completing the job,

but until i find my ideal job anything in the region of repairing pcs will do.

edit: how does this look http://www.onlinelearningnetwork.com/aplus_details.htm

£40 for 1 years access to course material seems too good to be true to me,

does n e 1 else no where to find A+ available to buy online ?

 

[ssc456]

nobody get n e more ideas ?

I think go with a+ or microsoft desktop support from what I've read and seen and heard for starters.

well i dont like the looks of desktop supports seems more operating system and software based rather than hardware
