The Network+ is designed for people with no prior knowledge of networks and networking.

The type of students we have who attend the Network+ are those who really want to break into networking but have little experience within this area and might be finding it a challenge to understand the various complex topics in this field simply from self study and therefore rather than spend many months trying to make the wood for the trees they come onto our Network+ courses so that we can help make it easier for them to make sense of what is going on, and what they learn on the course gives them the motivation to complete their studies without having to struggle to understand all of the theory that would have taken them months to figure out by themselves without really knowing if they are doing something the right or wrong way, plus when they are confident they always come back on the free retrain which we offer to consolidate their knowledge and hone their skills prior to taking the Network+ exam.



So are you ready for the course, You are if you approach the course with an idea what you want to gain, then we would say yes.

Not really, but we would expect you to understand the point of a network.

We would also expect you to have at least basic computer skills, such as knowing how to load a software program and how to load a driver

The 3 day Network+ course is designed to take into account that you have no expereicne with networks or networking. This is the ideal course if you are a complete beginner.

It does not hurt to know stuff, read up on IP Addressing, HEX, Cabling, Wireless. Knowing more about this subjects really does add value to the classroom sessions and keep a good debate going in the classroom.

The courses start at 9:00am on the nose and finish no later than 6:00pm from the first day to the last.

We don't try to appeal to your ego by finishing late into the night when you are tired. We find that we the correct instruction we normally finish around 6pm (The last day we have been known to finish around 3:00pm )

Is that not the same question we used to ask when the low cost airlines started to fly, then suddenly it dawned on us all that the incumbent airlines had been over charging us for years? So why should it be any more than what we charge?

Come to our "Free one day training sessions" so you can try us out before you pay, see the real classes in action

If the likes of Ryanair and EasyJet can make a £30 million pound aircraft pay its way for a tenner a flight why can't we offer a course at the prices we do?

Ultimately cost of the course is an issue for everyone, but remember that a price is soon forgotten when your network is down and you don't know how to fix it or applying for a networking job and you can't answer the interviewers questions.

The simple fact that the instructors for Commsupport are all full time network engineers during the week when we are not teaching.

We have been teaching for many years whilst being network engineers. we are not like other training companies that only have in-house instructors, at best these instructors can only claim to consult, but that is not enough, the only way to learn about networking is by real hands on from people who work with this stuff every day, not just consulting.

 

We of all people know that sometimes despite best endevours it is not always possible to absorb every piece of information that we cover in the classroom, we also understand that work and family life can get in the way of study time and that one thing can lead to another, that is why we have the unlimited free course retake policy.

Once you do the complete Network+ you can come back onto the same course for free, there is no time limit.*

We do not expect you to have attempted the exam within set period of time after the course, we do not impose any time limits on that front.

The complete course retake has only a few conditions (No small print here)...

1. That you attend the entirety of the original course without missing any days.

2. If you want to attend the entire course from start to finish including the lectures, labs and break/fixTM you will need to book your course date 3 days before the start of the course you wish to attend

3. If you just want to attend the lectures you must meet condition 1 above and that you call us prior to coming in, this can be booked at short notice practically on the day, we only need to make a seat available for you so it is easier for us to do

4. The first free retake must be taken within one year of the end of the original course

*The unlimited free retake is for courses that contain the same content, if the official Network+ course syllabus is changed by Comptia we would also change the the course content to reflect the new content, this change would constitute a course change.

We don't, simply because we can't and nor can anyone else, if you are good at networking you will get a job in networking on your own, if you are not good at networking you won't it is as simple as that, no company can make that sweeping statement, networking requires the right aptitude, either you have it or you don't. We give the real knowledge to take to an interview and really impress.

But we can offer you the chance to work within Commsupport as a classroom assistant when you pass your Network+ to gain that valuable experience, become a LABRAT, contact us to find out how.

We use a variation of equipment on the Network+ courses to give you as much exposure to networking as possible without bogging you down with the extreme detail you will find on more advanced courses

Yes we do.

If you want bring their own laptop so you can load up all the materials and software that we provide and use during the course please feel free

We have been running the Network+ as a 3 day course since 2008 and feel that it is about the right amount of time for this type of course, not too little and not too much, just right!

We used to have this course run over 4 days but decided to take all of the first day boring theory out of the course and put it on line so you can view the first day theory in your own time.

A paper Network+ is somebody that has passed the Network+ without ever touching a router or a switch and passed the Network+ without any hands-on experience, the problem is that when they go get a job and they are confronted with kit to configure as part of the interview (we do it at our day jobs when we interview new engineers) a paper Network+ folds just like a piece of paper. All show no go!!!

We make sure our students get real hands on with real break fix scenarios, this gives our students the skills to fault find / fix and understand networks.

3 days is about the right amount of time to cover all of the theory and practical tasks related to this qualification, over 3 days you get to ask all the questions you want, gain first hand knowledge from real network engineers.

We believe everything has a place, we would never recommend to anyone that they just take our course and read the manuals that we supply and leave it at that, we actively encourage people to learn from as many sources as possible, from other books, from Computer based training Videos, from colleagues at work.

We are one piece of a very complex puzzle. We are not arrogant to believe that we are going to be a "one stop shop" for your Network+ training but we will be a huge part of it. Can we recommend any CBT courses?, No we can't , they're mostly a few hours of rubbish.

You stand a better chance getting a job after having done our Network+ course. Why? Because we will teach you not just the topics you need to know for the exam but the additional subjects that you really need to know for when you are applying for a networking job, the knowledge that you gain on this course will help you pass the exam, get a job in networking and most importantly keep it! If you go for a job interview for a networking job, you will stand above the other candidates because of the additional topics that you learnt on our Network+ course.

We have had students successfully apply for a job in networking before they even completed our course!

We do expect the students to have read up on the Network+ topics to the point that they be familiar with the terms and general concepts.

We do expect you to put 100% effort into their studies and it is expected without question, just as an employer would expect you to put 100% into the work you are employed to do. No slacking!!!


When you come on our Network+ course we help you to tie up everything and make absolute sense of everything. There is no such thing as a free lunch so expect to work hard.
