NFON 57068 - A+ Cert, Intermediate-ONLINE

Course Description

The Intermediate CompTIA A+ Certification Prep course picks up where the Basic course left off, taking you right into the PC. You will start with detailed information on installing and configuring hard drives and removable drives, and then spend the rest of the course knee-deep in Windows. You will learn about the operating system from installation to operations, maintenance to troubleshooting. The course finishes with an in-depth look into installing, configuring, maintaining, and troubleshooting printers. This course takes you through the second of the three steps you need to become both a highly competent PC tech and a CompTIA A+ certified technician, 2009 style. Note: You should have access to a PC running Windows 9x, and a PC running Windows 2000 or XP, so that you can learn the subtle (and not-so-subtle) differences between these two families of Windows. Although this course focuses on operating systems, you should have access to a hard drive that you can install, format, and partition, and to a couple of Plug and Play devices that you can practice installing. Because of the dangers of electro-static discharge (to the machine, not the student), we do not require you to tear apart your own primary computer (and definitely do not recommend that you format or partition your primary hard drive!).
