"My computer background coming into the program was limited to basic OS knowledge and hardware relating to desktop computers. I decided that I needed to make a career change because of where I was in my current profession and the lack of growth. I knew that pursuing certifications via a program like the one offered at ComputerTraining.com would help me to gain the skills needed to succeed in a career in IT.
In my new career, I enjoy the everyday challenge of learning new hardware and software technologies and having to learn how to maintain, troubleshoot and manage the technology in a live production environment.
My biggest fear before entering the program was being able to keep up with the reading and required homework. The idea of moving through highly technical information in such a short period of time was intimidating at first, but within a few weeks of starting the program I began to settle into a rhythm that allowed me to keep up and learn the information that was being studied.
The best advice I can offer to new students entering the program is to be diligent and make the most of the time in the program. The instructor and career advisors are valuable resources that are essential to success in the program and pursuing a career in the IT field.
The program is directly responsible for helping me to gain the skills needed to succeed in a career in IT. The Instructor and my Career Advisor played an integral part in my succeeding in getting into a new job and career."
