Whats the name of the collage? is it accredited? mind it turn out to be a cram school. I had a bad experience with a so called collage who offered similar courses...next time i tell you the war story

funny enough I would be weary about schools that call this a diploma or degree...only one place I trust with that and thats CIT....in the end your just getting training on different IT courses. Have you gone in and spoke to the admin yet? sampled any classes?

as you said thats a lot of money...I wouldn't rush into it...i did and i paid the price...in more ways than one.

I imagine the entire course material since they said they prepare you for those certs. its a matter of how they teach that material that concerns me...reading straight out of a book and testkings not my idea of training

Ahh yes everest formally CDI collage...I heard they are good. one more question for you though. is this a course to train you for certs only? or is it for a diploma in Networking? As I said I know some schools that do this and there diplomas mean squat.

One more thing 10 months??? that kinda sort for all them topics

[T-Zero]

well mainly its for a diploma in Networking, even tho they say i can get certified too cause they are also a Microsoft cert test center, not sure tho but i remember her saying i can pay for tha test and do it there.

they seem legit so far

gonna post pic of the course period
