Being a man of 60 years old, I have found it hard to firstly understand a lot about computers, and so have had to study very hard and achieved over 95% average over all the section 1 and section 2 exercises.
Secondly, I have had to work long hours doing a full time job, then after a day of hard physical work I have had to force myself to study for about two to three hours an evening to achieve the results I have.
Thirdly, due to the hard work, I am even more determined to complete the course and to become qualified to a high standard, and therefore increase my prospects of a better paid and more satisfying job.
I have on many occations due to this course been able to help some of my neighbours to fix and maintain there computers. Thank you Skills Train.

Just recently achieved my first 100% result on TMA12, which has given me an extra lift to study harder and progress further within my course. My confidence and skills have grown since starting the course. More friends and family members are seeking my help and advice. Already built two pc's for friends who are very pleased, and also troubleshooted another pc and repaired for a BT workers friend.

I will be the first to admit that I have been very slow on progression of my course, but recently have pulled my finger out! The last few months I have handed TMAs in on a regular basis and have acheived good results. Best of luck to every body studying with SkillsTrain, and thanks to all the tutors for their assistance!!!

After suffering an injury, I have taken on board the compTIA A+ course without any understanding of IT previously, to further my knowledge and use it to help me in my current employment within the network industry. Although I have an old computer at home I do not really understand how it operates, but having taken the first part of the course, it has explained quite a bit and increased my understanding and curiosity!
My first result recieved amazed me, I scored 100%! It May seem basic to a lot of people but to me that was a real achievement!
I look forward to continuing with the rest of the course, and eventually having the understanding to allow me to reach my goals.
Already I have helped a friend with simple problems to do with their o/s and basic knowledge enabling them to access areas they would not normally attempt.

OK I gotta be honest im not one for blowing my on trumpet but after the month I've had I thought sod it.
I've just passed unit 9 of PC Hardware and Maintenance Part A. Anyway this last month has been an absolute nightmare; my son has cystic fibrosis and has been taken into hospital, he's been in for 2 weeks. During this time I have a job as a self employed courier which is a 60 hour week and add on top of that trips to the hospital every night and staying over the weekend to give my wife a break. How the hell have I found time to study - well I've used my time on a weekend with my son in hospital to study whilst he's been asleep on a night time. This May seem more heartless than it is as my son has to make regular two week trips to the hospital, which is worrying but when you understand what his condition is the fear is taken away.
There's always a way. I hope soon too be able to end my time as a courier to find a less demanding and time consuming job hence the reason for this course. Thank you for reading.

I have achieved knowing what is inside a computer and getting to know of how it works & also all the parts which is inside a computer to make it all work.
I am also very happy with the achievements of my results.
I have also helped my friend find a fault with his computer and that was a big achievement. These are the achievements I have done so far since I have been doing this course.

I would just like to say I was a little sceptical about enrolling on my chosen course at first, on the other hand now I am more familiar with the function of Student World I am happy to push in to new areas. This new found confidence is also reflecting on my TMA scores considerably!

First of all, I think it is hard to talk and to write about my self but the big change that happened in my life by starting this course encouraged me to do so.
I came to live in the UK 3 years ago, my English still needed improving, but I worked very hard to learn English and to look after my family and study my course material.
In my country I was working as adviser to the minister of planning and I have university degree and more than ten courses in different subjects as IT, statistics, public relations, languages, SPSS, GIS and how to use the Remote Sensing to detect and solve problems in our land and undersea and also to learn more about our atmosphere to reduce pollution.
In this course I really developed my knowledge and learned how to fix computer problems and the most exciting moment when I finish a clean installation and the computer runs fast and no error messages appear. Thank you.
