Read What Our Students at King of Prussia Are Saying...
A Training Center is only as good as the students that fill its classrooms.  If our students are not successful, we are not successful.   Below are just a few of the many student success stories happening at ComputerTraining.com at King of Prussia, Pennsylvania LLC.

"I mainly used computers for recreational use and as a tool for my job. Some of my friends were already in the IT industry and I envied having to consult them for everything that went wrong with my computer. Every time they fixed or installed something for me I would learn from them and soon I was able to do some things on my own while assisting others as well. I realized I had a knack for this and wondered where I would have to go to learn.

I hated the thought of having to go to college again. The ComputerTraining.com radio ads kept asking, “What are you waiting for?” so one day I took the Online Skills Challenge and passed. I was contacted, interviewed and received tuition information quickly.

I was very nervous during the class thinking that there would be a lot of technically savvy people there that would laugh me under the table, but the experience was sublime. The instructor went neither too fast nor slow and the way the program was laid out, there was no way you wouldn't learn the material. I graduated with my MCP, MCSA and MCSE in Server 2K3. A month after I had my CCNA. The foundation set at ComputerTraining.com is what helped me achieve my CCNA in such a short time. I'm now turning down job offers because there are so many! It feels good to be in a field that's in demand. Where my previous job had reached its peak, here I am starting a more profitable career path. So I would ask people thinking about the course, “WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?”"

"I started at ComputerTraining.com with no formal education in computers. Everything I had learned I had taught myself either playing with different things or watching someone else. After a while, people started asking me for help with programs and wanted me to show them how I had done something. That started me thinking about my career in food service and how I had always wanted to learn more about computers. The timing was right for me to go back to school but I didn’t want to commit to a four year college program. I still have a mortgage to pay and needed to continue to work full time. That’s when I decided to seriously think about ComputerTraining.com.

I had heard the ad on the radio many times and the school seemed to be just what I was looking for. The hours fit perfectly with my scheduling needs. The instructor is great! He made class fun and he was excellent at explaining the material. He was able to give anyone extra help when they needed it. There is a lot to learn, especially for someone with a limited background in computers, but if you participate in class and do the assignments you really feel like you walk out of school with a good foundation; I know I did.

The program does not stop there though. The Career Services department is outstanding. I got help with my resume and creating a portfolio. We had job fairs where we met different employers and found out what they are looking for. Not only was I placed fulltime in a position in IT support, I was given an invaluable opportunity to participate in an internship that fit with my schedule for several months. I know if I ever need help with job assistance again, I could call the school for help. I really feel that ComputerTraining.com is very committed to the success of their students, and my new career proves it!"

"Trying to change ones career is a challenge that takes a lot of work, patience, and luck. But with the right catalyst, not only is it possible to successfully make that change in your life, you can open up opportunities for yourself that may have at first seemed unrealistic. My hard work, along with the education I received at ComputerTraining.com, made my career change into the IT industry a reality instead of lingering as only an idea.

With the guidance of a first rate instructor and the insight and knowledge of a well motivated and experienced staff, not only was I prepared to tackle the challenges of a new industry, I was also educated on the variety of potential career paths that I may take well beyond the preliminary foundation of ComputerTraining.com.

It is with great pleasure that I look back upon the training that I received from this school. From this experience, I can comment on the fact that with a lot of hard work, patience to stay committed to your personal objectives, and belief in finding that perfect job opportunity, a person can indeed make the move into an IT career. ComputerTraining.com was the conduit that helped me to reach for my goal."

"Since I was young, I’ve had an interest in computers.  My father brought home our first PC when I was in grade school and I spent the whole night with the DOS book in my lap, learning how it worked.  From working in college as a lab assistant to taking odd jobs as a web designer, computers have long been a hobby of mine.  Finally, I heard a radio ad for ComputerTraining.com and decided to turn my hobby into a job that went above and beyond simply paying the bills.

ComputerTraining.com gave me more than knowledge of Microsoft’s products.  My experiences gave me confidence, both in myself and my career choices.  I realized my goals and lifestyle were within my reach, and all I had to do was put forth the effort to exceed my expectations.  The testing was challenging but worth every moment put towards it, and my achievements and passion lead me to a great job in a data center and also saw me invited back to the training center, this time as an intern.

If I could offer any advice to you, as you stand reading these testimonials from people with great jobs and cryptic letters after their names, it would be to never give up on yourself.  If you accept the challenge presented by ComputerTraining.com, you will be put through a fast-paced and powerful program that is only as effective as the effort you put towards it.  Your level of dedication to yourself and your education will account for your level of success both in your training and your future career.  Remind yourself that you can do it, and you will!"

"I had been working in the corporate world for six years as Administrative Assistant. I was at the top of my pay scale with no future. My position was actually getting phased out as newer technology was introduced to automate everything. I knew I needed to do something to secure my financial future.

I was always the one that family members and friends sought out to fix their computers. I kept hearing your commercials at least five times a day. My friends kept telling me I ought to start my own consulting business. I finally made the decision to invest in myself.

ComputerTraining.com has given me not only the skill sets and training needed to branch out into the IT Field but has also given me the confidence and self assurance needed to succeed.

The instructors are the best in the field and truly dedicated to helping you succeed. With my MCP certification I have opened my own consulting firm and now get paid top dollar for doing what I love."

"After leaving the Army, I was not sure in which direction I wanted to head on my career path. I had held various labor positions since getting out of the Army but I knew that I wanted a more stable career. At the time, I was a dump truck driver and heard the ComputerTraining.com commercials on the radio. I have always enjoyed working with computers but never had real technical experience with them. It was a really easy process to get started with ComputerTraining.com. I took the Online Skills Challenge and within hours I received a phone call from a ComputerTraining.com representative. After visiting the facilities in King of Prussia and talking with a few of their students and staff I decided that this was the career path I was interested in pursuing. ComputerTraining.com would be able to help me learn the skills I needed to enter the computer field.

I really enjoyed my time at ComputerTraining.com. I thought it was great how in six months I went from driving a dump truck to having a position with AIM Consultant Group as an onsite support consultant. The instructor of the class was very supportive and encouraging. The Career Services specialist was very helpful and willing to work hard with you to find jobs that suit your personality. You really do get what you put into this program. It is fast paced but if you are willing to put all the effort into it then you will get big results that can be the change you are looking for in your life. I feel that this program has given me the skills I need to never have to worry about my career options again. There are many options in the computer field and I feel that all the hard work I put into ComputerTraining.com has given me the basis I need to head in any direction I choose."

"At age 51, I was making a whole new start – changing careers entirely.  It was decades since I’d been in school and, while I’d always been good with computers, I wasn’t an IT guru by any stretch of the imagination.

From the very beginning, the folks at ComputerTraining.com were helpful and welcoming.  Before my classes even started, we met with our instructor several times to accustom ourselves to the classroom environment.  Once formal classes began, the instructor and the interns worked tirelessly to assist us in mastering the information and skills we were learning.

Career Services worked with us from the beginning as well.  Within the first three months, we were submitting the first drafts of our resumes.  The Placement Director spoke with us frequently throughout the program, both as a group and one-on-one, to make sure we knew what we had to do.  She alerted us to many opportunities and coordinated Career Fairs to introduce us to prospective employers. She was committed to helping me to find the perfect job – and she did.

If I had to choose a single word to characterize the staff at ComputerTraining.com, it would be Encouraging.  There were times when I felt like I’d never master the volume of information I was struggling to learn.  They didn’t let me give up.  There were times when I feared I wouldn’t find a job at the same level as the one I was leaving.  Again, the support I received carried me through.

The program at ComputerTraining.com is challenging.  It requires the student to learn a huge amount of information in a relatively short time.  However, I never felt that I was doing it alone.  My classmates, my teacher, and the entire staff were working with me to see me through.

Thank you, ComputerTraining.com, for helping me to make the changes I needed to make to move forward in my life!"

"My friend told me he had taken the Online Skills challenge at ComputerTraining.com after hearing the advertisements on the radio.  I thought it would be fun to take it for kicks to see how I did, but it ended up being a little harder than I thought.  Shortly after finishing the skills challenge I received a call that would change my life.

The recruiter I spoke with had a lot of great things to say about the program and for the first time got me interested in creating a path for my life.  Working for a home improvement warehouse was neither exciting, nor rewarding, and frankly my body was starting to wear down.  I spoke with the admissions officer at my location and within a few short months I was already working towards a brighter future.

The instructor at my school was fantastic.  I spent a few years at Temple University and some time at Community College, but I have never been in a more efficient learning environment.  The classroom was enriched mostly by such an influx of like-minded individuals; everyone was there because they were in a dead-end job and wanted more out of their career.   I’ve found it to be much easier to learn in a situation where everyone can bond through their motivations.

Only a few months after beginning the course I had already landed my first IT job (before even earning my MCP) at a Help Desk for a world renowned Hospital.  It was a short contract, but I was looking to build a resume and didn’t mind the impermanence so much.  It didn’t take long to land my second job at a similar place, where I am currently still working.  I don’t know where I’ll be employed in the distant future, but it’s not something I’m worried about anymore now that I’m qualified in a high-demand field that seems to be ever expanding.  Currently my MCP is landing me many potential jobs, but once I finish my higher-level certifications I expect that number to increase exponentially.  As of now I am planning for an MCSE: Security certification, but I know it will not end there.

Since graduating from ComputerTraining.com I’ve already doubled the money I was making before at my previous employer, and I know that it will be possible for me to double my salary several more times in my life.  I know that the decision to go through the training will prove to be the best decision of my adult life."

"There isn't enough time to really explain how great the ComputerTraining.com center is, or how deeply this experience changed my life!   But, if I had to focus on one thing about my experience it would be the staff.  Not often do you find such dedicated people helping others reach a level of success that otherwise might seem impossible. 

From the moment I entered ComputerTraining.com, I felt like success was right around the corner.  The staff was informative at the most detailed levels.  Never did I find myself wishing I had more help, I had more than enough and if I really needed more I knew where to get it.    Even when I felt like all hope was lost, there was always someone willing to show me that all I need to do was keep trying.  It was an experience that made me realize my own true potential to make things happen for myself. Whether it was my teachers, administration or my career advisor, I always felt that I was getting the very best assistance anyone could hope to receive. I doubt anyone could find a better overall experience."

"At age 32, making a career change seemed risky.  But after fourteen years of working as a spreadsheet jockey in a Financial Institute that was leading nowhere fast, ComputerTraining.com looked promising.

I have to admit, going back to school seemed overwhelming at first and I had my doubts.  I was right where you are now.  Reading these testimonials and thinking "Who are these people?"  Well guess what?  Now I'm one of those people, and you can be too.  Ask some of the students currently in class.  Just show up one day, sit in the back of the class and wait for a break.  Talk to the teachers and then talk to the students.  You'll probably find that most of the students had the same concerns that you have right now.

Yes it was difficult at first, but once the pieces started to fall together, something amazing happened.  I actually started to learn something new, and I was good at it.  Can you remember the last time this happened to you?

Four and a half months ago I started class with only a high school diploma and basic computer skills.  Now I have my MCP, MCSA, MCSE, CCNA certifications, and only have a month and a half to go for my CCDA.

Yesterday I started filling out my resume and it hit me.  I'm finally proud of my accomplishments.  Thank you ComputerTraining.com and special thanks to my instructor who made it all possible."
