COM862 — Advanced A+ Certif
Prerequisites: Internet access, and the Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Internet Explorer web browser. Successful completion of the Basic A+ Certification Online: Hardware I and Intermediate A+ Certification Online: Operating Systems I courses. A Windows 9x PC that you can experiment on. You will probably want to remove/install various devices, such as video, sound, and modems. Because of the dangers of electro-static discharge (to the machine, not the student), however, we do not require you to tear apart your own primary computer. This is a class that trains you to be a technician - having a machine to play with greatly helps your learning. You can pick up an old PC from second-hand stores or garage sales. This course takes you through an extensive set of technologies, including SCSI, video, modems, printers, multimedia, portable PC's, and networking. You'll study the hardware and learn the software necessary to install, configure, and troubleshoot that hardware. This course completes your understanding of the hardware and operating systems tested on the A+ Certification exams.
