Who Should Take IT Concepts and Terminology Training?
This foundational IT training is considered foundational-level CompTIA training, which means it was designed for non-technical professionals or aspiring IT professionals with no experience at all.
Basic IT user training. Even if someone was good behind the wheel, if they tell you they don't know what a highway is, what road signs mean, or what the red and green flashing light thing is, you'd doubt their ability to drive. Don't make that same mistake with technology. Learn the vocabulary and concepts that make your computer run, your networks connect and your data work.
New or aspiring IT professionals. If you plan to have a career in the IT world, one of the first and most important steps in that journey is knowing the words and ideas you'll be dealing with. This foundational IT course provides you with what you need to understand what IT delivers for organizations, and never sound like you're a fish out of water.

Instructor's CoursesI really enjoy teaching someone a topic that was difficult for me to learn so they don’t have to go through the same pain that I did while learning that topic.
