Network+ Certification 2009


Schedule our instructor led classroom training at your convenience and never miss another lecture or fall behind. You are in complete control. We invited the best Microsoft-Certified Trainers in the industry to help us develop the ultimate training & certification program which includes everything you need to succeed.

The CompTIA Network+ Certification course builds on existing user-level knowledge and experience with personal computer operating systems and networks to present fundamental skills and concepts that students will use on the job in any type of networking career. If students are pursuing a CompTIA technical certification path, the CompTIA A+ certification is an excellent first step to take before preparing for the CompTIA Network+ certification.

This training is intended for entry-level computer support technicians with low level knowledge of computer hardware, software, and operating systems, who wish to increase their knowledge and understanding of networking fundamentals and skills to arrange for a career in network support or administration, or to get ready for the CompTIA Network+ certification.

A typical student in the CompTIA Network+ Certification Training should have a minimum of nine months of professional computer support experience as a PC technician or help desk technician. Network experience would be beneficial, but not required; A+ certification or the equivalent skills and knowledge is helpful but not required.

An intro course in a Windows operating system, or equivalent skills and knowledge, is required. Also, the CompTIA A+ certification, or the equivalent skills and knowledge, is beneficial, but not required.
