About Our Classes

Delivery Style: 60% Hands-On, 40% Lecture
The A+ and Network+ training classes can be taken independently, but here at ACE we have also developed a program that combines the A+ and Network+ into one combination course. The A+ and Network+ certifications are both in demand for entry to mid level IT jobs. These CompTIA certifications also provide the fundamentals one needs to move on to higher level networking courses. This class provides our students with the learning foundation they will need to pursue the next stage of employment and higher education in IT! This is also the ideal class for someone looking to make a career change in to IT, computer repair and networking.

Not only is this class very hands on and very interactive, but it is also available in a custom format at your location if you're looking for group instruction. Our custom, corporate A+/Network+ certification class can be administered on-site at your facility. For more information on our custom A+/Network+ training programs visit our custom IT training page.

Our A+/ Network+ course provides the student with a solid foundation in PC hardware and operating system knowledge (DOS / Windows 9x, 2000, NT 4.0 and XP), as well as the hands-on training necessary to succeed in the IT industry / workforce. Additional program hours in networking concepts, combined with application software, makes the A+/ Network+ certification class an excellent stepping stone to more advanced certifications.

To receive the A+ certification students must pass two tests — Essentials and IT Tech.

Network+ is a certification that ensures the knowledge of networking professionals with 18—24 months experience in the IT industry, or those that possess equivalent knowledge and skills. Network+ is an entry level certification open to anyone who desires to learn networking basics as a foundation which can be applied towards other advanced networking certifications.

A+ and Network+ certifications provide IT managers and supervisors with an increasingly important benchmark in the hiring and promotion process. What’s more, companies are finding that incorporating certified technicians within their organizations helps build confidence and value. More and more companies are requiring computer certifications, such as A+, Network+ as a pre-requisite for employment. The last few hours of the course will be spent doing test prep and review.

 An added benefit of this class is that upon completion, you will be able troubleshoot and repair your own computer or laptop and set up and manage your at home network.

About the A+/Net+ Curriculum Update 2009
CompTIA released a new version of the A+ certification in 2009. ACE is now offering training for the latest (2009) A+ objectives which will be covered in exams A+ (Essentials) 220-701 and A+ (Practical Application) 220-702.
Here’s a brief look at what’s covered in the latest program:

CompTIA A+ Essentials (22-701) measures the necessary competencies of an entry-level IT professional with at least 500 hours of hands-on experience in the lab or field. It tests for the fundamentals of computer technology, networking and security, as well as the communication skills and professionalism now required of all entry-level IT professionals.CompTIA A+ Practical Application (22-702) is an extension of the knowledge and skills identified in CompTIA A+ Essentials, with more of a "hands-on" orientation focused on scenarios in which troubleshooting and tools must be applied to resolve problems.For a full list of objectives covered in the new exams please visit the CompTIA website by clicking here.
