Computer Qualifications - Joskos - Ideas?

linktoinsanity · 17 May 2012 at 17:16

Hi there, any advice would be extremely helpful on this.

Has anyone had any experience with the IT Training company Joskos?

They teach a few Microsoft certifications and I think it might help me to get a job once I am Microsoft Qualified. Thing is it'll cost me £850 to get 2 different qualifications (one MS) + £99 for each MS exam I have to do.

It is a lot of money to just throw away, and I'm not sure whether to do it or not, although the MS certifications will look better on my CV and will help complement the Digital Forensics degree I already have.

I don't want to work as a Supervisor on the shop floor where I am now forever.

Any advice welcome,

Thanks.

not used them myself but a lot of these companies promise the earth and dont always deliver, it's true to the person who's taking the course or exam you still have to study hard and there no real way to fast track getting those sort of Certs without brain dumping the questions and answers then taking the exam - but that defeats the object as if there on your CV and you do get a job you have to know what your doing otherwise you be fired within 3 months........

the only way is the hard way the course may help but ultimately you have to put the work in...... Like i started doing all those years ago
