This course is designed for people don't have enough practical experience to get a job in IT, who want to pursue a career in IT or would like to get a better job in IT by learning Networking and Servers.

You should really have an understanding of how computers work and connect to each other and what an operating system is.

This is not a Dummies Guide course, it's intermediate to advanced, but you'll understand more every week, as you'll see on the Course Menu.

No matter which part of the course you wish to take, you must complete Week 1 to qualify for the rest of the course, as we have to make sure you understand the fundamentals before continuing to the good stuff.

We have many different types of students coming through our doors, but the people who leave and get the best jobs are the ones who have a genuine interest in IT.

As you can see, you don't have to be an expert to take this course, but if you don't know one end of a PC from the other, maybe this course is not for you.
