I have achieved 93% and above on my last 3 TMA`s which is worth celebrating for me. I was concerned that the course would be too difficult for me, but with the amount of study I have done, it seems that if you try hard enough you can achieve almost anything. TMA01 - 100%, TMA02 -93, TMA03 -93%. I have just started this course and I am really enjoying it, I have done well in my first TMA. I as off work due to ill health, I have still found the motovation to continue with my course and am getting my health back. I enrolled on a course with skillstrain in February with only basic pc knowledge. The first few months were a sruggle trying to find time to study while raising my son on my own and holding down a full time job, I was beginning to think I had taken too much on and would not be able to complete the course. After carefully considering my options I realised that getting in to the it industry was my ultimate goal and so I have now reduced my hours at work to part time which has given me alot more time to study. I have submitted 5 TMA's throughout May and am really enjoying the course now. Thanks for all your help skillstrain! It has taken me about 1 year to get into the course due to the fact that I am a nurse, wife mother of three grown up children, have four granchildren of whom I look after to let their parents work, also have 2 dogs 1 cat 2 rabits guinea pigs as pets to keep the granchildren happy. But now its time to really get into the course of which I am very interested in, I like taking computers to bits to see how they work, and someday hopefully I will change my job direction to computers installation and repair, and show my 9 year old grandson a few tricks of the trade can only help his future as well. In this course so far I have learnt basic things that come into use in everyday life, I have fixed my friends PC's and I am still working hard to fix my own, even my teachers in school are impressed with what I can now do just from this course. Being a nurse and my fascination to technology seemed not a good mix, especially to my friends at work. After reading and finishing my first assignment, one of the trouble shooting model (Comp TIA's A+) really struck me by it's logical approach. Mind you, I applied this when I was oncall attending to a patient who was having a heart attack. Of course I asked the patient what he was feeling, and identified chest pain and shortness of breath as the immediate problem, we confirmed that the chances are he really having heart attack. Medicines and equipments for possible angiography were readied before the consultant arrived. The patient was confirmed having a heart attack after angiography and the blockage of his heart was removed. The procedure just lasted 20 minutes which could have normally lasted 45 minutes or more, because of early preparation with the aid of logical application of problem solving technique. It was really a very smooth procedure compared to an emergency scene I see everyday when you know what's happening, you know what's causing it to happen, and you know how to stop it from happening. I work very hard in achieving my marks which I am always pleased with. I am aiming to start up my own business by practising simple repairs on families and friends pcs with the knowledge I have achieved so far with Skill-train. I AM CURRENTLY A CHEF WORKING 12 HRS A DAY AND STILL BE ABLE TO CARRY ON WITH MY COURSE, I KNEW NOTHING ABOUT HOW A PC ACTUALLY WORKED WITH ALL THE DIFFERENT ASCII AND BINARY DIGITS, NOW I HAVE A FAIRLY GOOD IDEA WHAT GOES INTO A PC. WITH THE STRESS OF ROYALMAIL LOOKING TO GET RID OF 40,000 PEOPLE AND HAVING A FAMILY TO LOOK AFTER AND ACHIEVING MINIMUM 90%FO MY TMA'S SO FAR I'M VERY VERY HAPPY I HOPE IT CONTINUES. Just starting this course has been achievement enough as I am getting close to being bankrupt. Certainly wasn't expecting to do that well from the course but I have been surprised at how much I am getting out of it so quickly and have been submitting assignments as quickly as I receive my marks from previous TMAs. I have just submitted TMA 5 and am now going to get on with 6.Thank you so much. SINCE I STARTED THIS COURSE, I KNEW THE BASIC IN PC AND I COULD OPERATE MY PC AND MY FRIENDS PC IF IT HAD TROUBLESHOOTING. THEY SOMETIMES ALLOW ME TO USE THE PC AT MY PLACE OF WORK. I THINK I AM MOVING AHEAD, AND I KNOW WITH TIME I WILL LEARN MORE. Having started on my A+ in October and having to look for a change in career due to ill health. I had managed to get to tma6 then realised that I wouldn't be able to finish before June due to my laptop being knocked over by my daughter and the screen getting seriously damaged. As we couldn't afford to buy a great big new "all singing dancing computer" I decided to build my own from components which obviously worked as I am sending this response to you. I am happy for being a part of Skills Train group. I just want to share my experience with you all. I work for a MNC, I started this course to fined a right job for my skills. I was good in Programming but had a long break. I thought of restarting in the same field. This course helped me to restart in a proper way. To make a big story short I realised that I was good when I helped my colleague who is in his 70's, that had a problem with his system I sorted the problem out. I was very happy about that, since then he started praising me. Fingers crossed I am getting free publicity for a very small thing and this May at some point lead for bright start.
