PAUL H. WOODHEAD, first stop loans ltd.
CompTIA A+/Network+ Certification (7 Days) (17/7/2006 to 23/7/2006)
"The time on the course is limited and best used as a review rather than seeing the material afresh. It is worth doing plenty of preparation for the course to make sure you get the most out of your experienced and knowledgeable instructor in terms of questions and discussion. You cannot stay up until late reading as you need to be fresh and alert the following day. That said, anything that is not clear from your preparation reading can quickly and easily be cleared up at the course as the instructor has a very good way of using examples and different ways of explaining to ensure everyone understands. "
Anne Marie Mockford, Cable & Wireless.
