Introduction:
 
CompTIA's A+ certification is the industry standard for validating the foundational skills needed by today's computer support professionals. This international vendor-neutral certification requires that you pass a minimum of two exams: the required CompTIA A+ Essentials Exam and a specialized elective exam. In this instructor-led, lecture-only course, you will focus on preparing for the Essentials Exam 220-601 and the elective IT Technician Exam 220-602.

With a particular focus on certification exam preparation, you'll gain the needed knowledge of basic computer hardware and operating systems. You'll cover the essential principles of installing, building, upgrading, repairing, configuring, troubleshooting, optimizing, diagnosing, and preventive maintenance, and you'll learn elements of soft skills, security, and customer interaction. Instructor-led practices and quizzes help reinforce course concepts and exam readiness
 
Customize it:
 
This 5-6-day A+ course will be customized to your needs and specifications. Eno.com will assist you in identifying those needs and specifications. A word to the wise, there are many vendors of A+ training. They will typically have a broad and general course, one size fits all, already developed and just put your organization’s ame on the title slide. This minimizes their effort and time investment. At Eno.com, every course is made to your exact and exacting specifications. We help you ensure what you are getting is what you really need even if at the beginning you weren’t too sure of what that was. We fit the class to your needs. We never fit you into our “standard”, one size fits all, class.
