Requirements:
Internet access, e-mail, the Microsoft Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox Web browser, and the Adobe Flash and PDF plug-ins
(two free and simple downloads you obtain at
http://www.adobe.com/downloads by clicking Get Adobe Flash Player and
Get Adobe Reader). Successful completion of the Basic CompTIA A+
Certification Prep and Intermediate CompTIA A+ Certification Prep
courses. A Windows 9x PC that you can experiment on. You will probably
want to remove/install various devices, such as video, sound, and
modems. Because of the dangers of electro-static discharge
(to the machine, not the student), however, we do not require you to
tear apart your own primary computer. This is a class that trains you
to be a technician - having a machine to play with greatly helps your
learning. You can pick up an old PC from second-hand stores, garage
sales, or your Aunt Edna's attic.

Student Reviews:
"As a mother, wife, full time worker and student, these courses seem to be custom tailored for my neeeds. Outstanding!!!"
"Excellent in very way"
"I found this course to be extremely helpful. For the most
part the lessons were to the point. I realize that some history needs
to be discussed but at times it seemed there was a tad too much. More
to the point would be nicer. I thoroughly enjoyed the exams and the
instant results and being able to resubmit. This in itself is a great
learning tool. I did not submit much to the discussion areas but found
it to be extremely informative to read. I really appreciate having this
course online and enjoyed it very much. I feel more than confident when
I take the core exams for A+ Certification. I commend all who were
involved in presenting this fine course. Thank you!"
"I now have taken all of the online courses for the A+. I am
going to study a little further and hopefully get that certification
soon! These three courses had a lot of good information. It got in
depth with a lot of topics, which I found great. Good course overall!"
"Instructor is awesome! This is far better than the first 2 A+ courses. Excellent knowledge!"
"I've taken all three A+ Certification courses and have
enjoyed them all. This course was exactly what I needed, because I live
and work in two different states and am unable to attend a classroom
based course, due to my work schedule. I feel confident in my ability
to pass the A+ exams with just a little more studying and review. And
because of this I'll be back for the Network+ certification course."
"Scott is an excellent instructor! I have learned much in
his 3 A+ classes and feel confident that I will easily pass the A+
exams."
"Scott was an attentive and knowledgeable instructor with a
writing style surpassing all other A+ Certification Preparation
authors. The course was of great value to me. Thank you Scott!"
"Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this on line
class. It was very informative and I feel that I will be successful in
passing my A+ test because of the knowledge I gained in this class.
Thanks again!"
"Thank you for this course! It was very flexible with my
hours, and gave me enough time to complete my class work. I would
recommend this to any one who doesn't have time for on campus training
or a limited budget!"
"Very good class. I have learned a great deal and have been
able to apply my skills appropriately due to your course. Thank you
very much."
"Very good course. By far the most challenging of the three."
