SkillsTrain Courses

As a student of A+ (PC hardware and Maintenance) I have studied throughout and finished most of the assignments with nearly 100% marks. Even though I haven't taken the exams, I am still able to get a job as a CSO (Computer Support Officer). Where I solve problems on the computers and help out processing staff on IT applications. This is like dream come true. This would have been impossible without doing the course with the collage. Now I can imagine, passing the exams will boost my chance to gain a decent job in IT field. I intended to pass my exam by end of February but I had to rearrange it for some personal reason. Hopefully I will pass exams with good marks within next couple of months.

I know a few people, who have done this course with different organisations; they are still finding it difficult to understand the important part of the course. Also they had fewer assignments then what I have completed with the college. When I checked with them and their material, I found that they weren't given the course material with the necessary details. The lack of the information is costing them in terms of the knowledge they obtained for the A+ part.

All the admin staffs and tutors are always helpful to me. I have noticed on many occasions that the tutors are always willing to go the extra mile to help me out on any problem with my study and in any practical work I carry out on my home pc, even though some time my work is not completely related to the course.

I must say that by joining the “Skills Train” I have taken a big step forward for a bright future.

In a short time of starting this course I have achieved something I never dreamt about good results in my assignments. Being a one parent family I have to put the effort I have into this to achieve the best for my family and to do this and look after my family on my own is an achievement on its own. My family are proud and they are right behind me in everything I do. They wish me luck.

To start with I really did not have any good formal qualifications, and often felt like I was not good enough for any good jobs, restricting myself to warehousing job which were not permanent.
I left college to move to leicester having family problems, I found myself really confused about what to do with my life, I couldn't go to college as I was working night shifts five nights a week.
I have found skillstrain course on a newspaper advert, applied online within a week they phoned my up arranged an interview and got enrolled on comptia A+/N+/ccNA.
I must say that enrolling on the course was one of the best thing that ever happened to me or could ever happen to me.I could study at my own pace,which meant I could study whenever I had the time, and it was stress free
because of the skillstrain course I knew I couldn't go wrong as I could see the reward coming out of this.
thank goodness for skillstrain team, getting words of encouragement from the tutors everything I have sumited TMA gave me the confidence and made me work hard.
Because of that and my determination I got 100% TMA score this month alone, and my TMA score averge 93%.

I would recomend anyone to enroll on any of the the skillstrain courses, with a little bit of hard work & the expert help of the tutors.. trust me you can't go wrong

I must confess I was not very hopeful in the beginning of the course as there are so many out there offering courses but not producing quality or results.
A few months on and boy was I wrong, my computer knowledge has gone from an unknowing person to someone who can talk with pc tech helplines over the phone. This happend recently with a network problem I had, I spoke to 3 different people and none could help me, thanks to this course though I managed to check a few things and presto, I sorted it myself.
All I can say is, it May seem that skills train are offering you the same as the other companies but I can asure you that what they offer is real. I have already learned so much.

I have change jobs since I started my course work, and the shift patterns are different. I do a early shift, a mid shift, a late shift and that why I can't visit Student World as regular as I would like. And also on my day's off I'm decorating the inlaws full house, whislt doing all this I'm still studying my course work and I'm still achieving a high pass rate in my TMA's . Just last week I built three computers for the local Salvation Army hall which runs a club every Wednesday for kids, ages from 5yrs to 13yrs.

Completed a £7 million project to network all Care Managers (Health Service) in Finland using a central Oracle database based in Reading. The project took 1 year to design, build and implement and the work load was shared equalled between 3 of us at WebReach Ltd. My main responsibilities included Network Infra-structure design and implementation. The system means that care managers in Finland will be able to monitor their patients progress (bad or good) on various projects like CVD or Diabetes. This information will then be used by the Finish Government to create a better health care system for patients with serious and usually terminal conditions.

STILL WORKING AS A SCHOOL CARETAKER I WAS ABLE TO SOLVE A NETWORK PROBLEM IN MY DEPARTMENT WHEN THE IT MANAGER WAS JUST ON HIS LONG LUNCH BRAKE. I WAS GIVEN THE CHANCE TO PERFORM THE TASK OF SETTING UP A NEW NETWORKED PC IN EMERGENCY BECAUSE THEY ALWAYS SEE ME READING A COMPUTER BOOK AND BELEIVE I CAN PERFORM THE TASK. (THE HEAD OT THE IT DEPRTMENT LOGGED ME IN TO THE SERVER), AND THE I ADDED THE NEW PC THAT WAS NEED IN OUR DEPARTMENT TO THE SCHOOL NETWORK. I AM SO HAPPY I DID THAT.

As I am not comming from a country where people speak English it is for me more dificult to understand everything properly. But I have managed to complete the 17 asignments of the A+ course within 7 months and right now I am submitting my Mock examination.
I have repaired the computer based till system at work where an error accured after a power outage and I also had problems with my own laptop and I had to reinstall the OS and install all the devices, without ASR or backup disk. I have also managed to upgrade the memory in my laptop from 256MB to 512MB. I cannot imagine myself achieving all this before I started this course with Skills Train. Thank You!

I have designed websites for local buisneses and added flash content in these sites and now I am a qualified ciw asociate I am going to to look for permanant employment as a web designer or a web asisitant. I can know use ccs and javascript easily, I can now write my own cgi scripts in perl, my designing now looks more professional and I am now more confident when designing a website and my planing of websites goes into more deatail so my sites are easier to design. In the next couple of weeks I am going to take my ciw site designers exam I am hoping to pass this exam so I can apply for more job vacancies.

Ive recently taken up Netball, playing with friends, colleagues from work and local residents. I have talked about my course while socialising and they have recently asked me to design and create their new web site. They are aware Im not yet qualified and May not be the best person for the job, but are giving me a chance anyway. They have even offered to pay which would be nice, as I recently also got married and not had the funds for a honeymoon. My wife, as an art student is looking forward to assisting with the graphical part of the design and would love a new computer to work alongside me at home.

Its been hard over the last few months to study with settling in a new job and paying bills etc. But I realised I cant afford to lose sight of my goal to improve life for me and my family. So this month I've really knuckled down and spent as much time as possible studying. Ive also started using the online classroom and its helped me alot. Im really enjoying the course and spend all my free time learning. Hopefully I'll have done 2 more TMAs before the end of the month and bring my target for the future a little closer.

I've only just started my course and have settled down quite well. However there have been a few moments already.
When I first started my course my partner and I was expected a baby but unfortunatly on new years eve I had a baby girl born 20 weeks early and she just couldn't survive. I lost alot of time on my studying nothing really mattered and I thought the world was against me, but together and with two good families we got through it and I had to get back on my feet and studying again because is the future my future! And after some long hours and some head scratching I'm starting to back into it again!
