Over the five month span I should walk out with the following qualifications:
- Advanced Diploma in ICT Systems & Principles for
IT Professionals
- Advanced Diploma in ICT Professional Competence
- Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist
- CompTIA’s A+
- Microsoft Certified Windows 7 Technician
This doesn't come easy though, the academy have compressed this course into five months (it would take 18 months - 2 years in college normally) and I also have a stupidly long working day. It's an hour and a half commute to work for a 9-5 day
But I also will have opportunities to work for companies such as Fujitsu, Google and other IT companies willing to recruit the academy's graduates.
So as of 28th of February I will be busy for a while
Hey That kinda sounds like Job Corps!
