"One day while driving I heard the radio ad for ComputerTraining.com and just kind of dismissed it at first. The one thing it did do is prompt me to take a look at my life and where I was heading with my career. In the past I have always been the unofficial IT person everyone went to with their computer issues. I have always enjoyed working on computers and realized that I would like to do that for a living. I have had plenty of jobs but never a career. I had my A+ certification and had taken courses in college towards a CIS degree but grew tired of everyone telling me that I needed to go back to school. So I made the decision to contact ComputerTraining.com.
I now have a career in the IT field for a global company. I’m no longer fixing up computers for friends and family, but making decisions that impact thousands of users worldwide. The training that I received from ComputerTraining.com helped me to not only get a rewarding job, but the wealth of knowledge I gained greatly impressed my employer. So much so that I was able to bring in a fellow student from my ComputerTraining.com courses.
The biggest fear that I had was starting a career all over again. I was also very skeptical about the quality of the training that I would receive. Within a few short weeks, I knew that I had made the right decision. From the instructor, all the way up to the President of ComputerTraining.com, there is a sincere desire for their students to achieve greatness. There really is no feeling like earning that first certification. I was increasingly motivated work even harder and do that much more!
The one piece of advice that I would give to prospective students is to get enrolled and give it your all. It is a long and sometimes difficult road to travel but if you stick with it the payoff is well worth the hard work. The program is fast-paced and can be frustrating at times, but the staff at Computertraining.com is always there to help and support you.
This program has allowed me to get certified and achieve my goals. I have the respect of friends, family and co-workers. It’s a good feeling to get up in the morning and actually want to go to work and see what new challenges await me each day, which is such a big change from dreading the alarm clock going off!
None of this could have been possible without the support I received not only from ComputerTraining.com but also from both family and friends who helped me every step of the way!"

"I didn’t know anything about computers. My country was a very low technology country. We didn’t have a lot of computers at home or in school. Technology was very expensive there. When I came to the U.S. my cousin gave me a computer and I got really interested in how computers work and what they can do. After a few months of using it I got really interested and decided to open it up and see how it worked. By reading the manual of the computer I got really excited about how it all worked and started to research and play with the computer.
After a few years of using computers learning a lot of self-taught information, I really wanted to get an education that would give me hands-on experience. I didn’t want to just read things out of a book. I heard the commercial on the radio and decided I wanted to see what it was all about. When I took the test there were a lot of challenging questions that were beyond my knowledge and I was even more interested and decided to enroll.
After a few months of attending class I got my MCP. I enjoyed the lab work the most and felt it was so helpful. The material was great at explaining the information for the students and the labs gave you practical experience. During school I was able to set up a wireless network and a home network. Whenever my friends or family have problems they call me and I fix it for them.
I was able to obtain a Help Desk position after graduation. I enjoy everything about the position. I enjoy the people and the environment and gaining more experience and knowledge. I am also able to learn better customer service skills in the process. I feel as though I have a career path now. In my former job I didn’t have that and really didn’t enjoy my work. As long as I am working with computers I feel happy because this is what I wanted to do.
I dreamt about being a Network Administrator and now I am on my way to gaining the experience and will hopefully obtain this goal."

"I have always loved computers and had an aptitude for them. When my job just wasn't making ends meet, I decided certification would help me earn more in the industry. At first I was a little worried about the program, but once I saw the passion of the instructor and the honesty of the staff, I knew this was the right place to be.
I love being able to use my knowledge to help others. In order to succeed in the class, you have to make time to study; there is no way around it. "I have no time" doesn't cut it. The overall experience, though, has given me the knowledge and confidence to be able to solve almost any problem."

"After working in the IT field for over five years as a IT Product Manager and Technology Specialist, the company I was working for was sold. Having years of IT experience was one thing, not having the certifications to backup my experience was another.
ComputerTraining.com gave me the confidence, skills and study habits to fulfill that part of my resume. The staff at Computertraining.com staff was
stellar. I couldn’t be happier with my experience and am truly thankful for
the time they took to make sure I fully understood and grasp the concepts
and technical skills that are now required of me at my new job."

"I decided to take the program at ComputerTraining.com because of my love for working with computers. I have been interested in computers since I got my hands on my first one at the age twelve. I always looked at computers as a hobby and something to do for fun as opposed to a career. Throughout my life, I have been in school for many things including mechanical drafting and EMT courses in my search to find that perfect career. In deciding to pursue a career in computers, the one thing that became clear was the need to earn my certifications. Although I had looked into taking classes at community colleges and universities, none of them offered a program geared towards obtaining a MCSE certification.
As I was driving one day, I heard the radio ad for ComputerTraining.com and was instantly excited. I thought finally someone is offering a program geared specifically towards what I wanted! I signed up for the class within two weeks of hearing that ad and haven’t looked back. With the help of ComputerTraining.com, I obtained a position as a PC Support Specialist with a large corporation that offers great opportunities in IT and awesome benefits, all while I was still in the class! After taking the program at ComputerTraining.com, I have finally turned something I love into my career!"

"My life seemed to be flashing before my eyes, moving at an uncontrollable speed. When I graduated from high school, I had a great job making great money for my age. I learned the skills I needed to learn to be able to grow financially and make a future for myself. A future at only 23 years old! Soon after, the realization of being a quarter century old started to hit me. I topped out at my company and reached a capacity of knowledge in a field that can easily swallow you without you with no ability to evolve. I needed a change, and I needed a future.
I heard a radio ad about this course one morning coming home from my third-shift job. The appeal was clear to me. I am very much a 'people person', always willing to help others and always looking to work with others. This seemed like a perfect fit for me, and it turns out I was right! I have enjoyed the classes, the instructors, and the knowledge I have gained. My success story is one straight out of the books, with the sweet coating! Hearing that this course can change your life in six months may sound too good to be true, but it worked for me. Everyone’s story will be a little different, because everyone’s situations are different, but when it comes down to it, the system works. I am proof that the system works, but it’s up up to you to give 100%. No question about it. Success is what you make of it!"
