IT Courses - Part Time From Home

We all have busy lives, and usually if we want to improve our career prospects or find a new path, training alongside a job is the only option open to us.

The good news is, we're not alone - many thousands of people study part-time, often in very difficult circumstances. Having said that, if you're going to invest some money, and a lot of spare time for 12 months or so, there's no harm in learning from their experience.

Let's make sure you're not wasting time by studying the wrong courses, or out of date ones, or that the course you've chosen is designed for you to fail. Yes - you read that right! Many colleges expect you to quit along the way, as they can't make a profit if all their students go the whole hog. So it's often not in their interests to make their courses user-friendly.

Always insist on seeing a small sample of their training materials, to be sure you can learn from it. Don't deal with a company that won't show you a sample of the type of training they provide!

The next thing to consider is - how good is their help and support?

There'll always be a time when you're training, and human nature kicks in and you really don't want to keep going. You probably know you just need to grit your teeth and push on through - but it's precisely at this time when you most need instant help with your challenges - it could be enough for you to give up if you can't get a response for a few days!

Many companies say they offer 24x7 support, when in reality it's an answer phone out of office hours. Or to put it another way, an answer phone every time you are studying!

Only companies who can give you access to a tutor/mentor to solve your problems there and then, 24x7, are worth your attention. Be wary of friendly message takers who'll probably get a tutor to call you back in a few days time during office hours.

Some companies also insist on up-front payment for exam fees. Why? Pay for exam fees when you take your exam, and leave the interest in your account, not theirs.

Most people who are drawn to IT tend to be more visual in the way that they learn, so would rather watch, apply and practice than read dull technical manuals.

When you bought your PC, did you read the book first, or just turn it on and dig around? You'll probably prefer a course that's totally on-screen video, demonstration and interactive labs for you to practice on.
The cost of most part time IT courses has reached a point where the majority of people who want to train can't afford it. So you need a company that's kept it's overheads under control, and offers courses for hundreds of pounds less than the competition.
