ACE's Special RecognitionsBack to top
Certification - A+/Network+ (A+/Net+)Back to topThe A+ and Network+ training classes can be taken independently, but here at ACE we have also developed a program that combines the A+ and Network+ into one combination course. The A+ and Network+ certifications are both in demand for entry- to mid-level IT jobs. These CompTIA certifications also provide the fundamentals one needs to move on to higher-level networking courses. We believe that this class provides our students with the learning foundation they will need to pursue the next stage of employment and IT education! The A+/ Network+ course provides the student with a solid foundation in PC hardware and operating system knowledge (DOS / Windows 9x, 2000, NT 4.0 and XP), as well as the hands-on training necessary to succeed in the IT industry / workforce.
