October 2004 Newsletter

Welcome to October's Newsletter!

It has been a busy couple of months here at the ITlearneasy training school with record number of  students enrolling on our innovative training programmes.

We have not rested on our laurels though and have not only updated and upgraded more courses to keep in line with industry changes but have introduced new courses including the Microsoft MCSA 2003 and the Microsoft MCDBA 2000 with SQL Server 2003.

We have also introduced the Certified Information Systems Security Professional CISSP training course - definitely only for those with relevant experience or previous qualifications  - and the CISSP Systems Security Professional PLUS training course which also leads to the highly coveted CISSP qualification, but allows you to start with no current IT knowledge.

We will also be introducing more new courses including programming, Oracle, Cisco and more Certifications in the very near future.

As you can see from the Hot Courses list opposite, most of the current in-demand Certifications are covered at  ITlearneasy by either a Fast Track Course, a Career Development Course, or our IT Success Passport training programme - and if it's not - it's on the way!

ITlearneasy stand by their advanced training methods and support 100%. That's why we have in introduced a No Risk Guarantee with all our Certification Courses.

In short - Pass or we'll buy your training back! Now you have nothing to lose when studying with ITlearneasy!

We have some important news about CIW Associate exams (sometimes called Foundations).

CIW themselves have now announced that the V4 exam is due for retirement by the end of November - and that the V5 curriculum will not follow the CompTIA iNET+ curriculum. 

We have seen other training providers still advertise that if you are studying for the iNET+ that you will be able to also sit the CIW Associate exam after November - you won't!!

These changes will not affect any of our current students as ITlearneasy immediately revamped our training as soon as the V5 exam curriculum was developed.

For more information about CIW Certifications go to the official CIW web site.

For those of you who have previous experience and only want to take the appropriate exam, we now can offer stand alone Exam Support.

Using our Online Exam Support you can test yourself without having to participate in a course. You'll know instantly whether you are ready to take your exam or not - and may not have to invest in training at all!

In addition you can also enrol with our  Referenceware programme to give you access to our 3000 plus selection of online IT books with all the information you need at your fingertips.

Save money by combining both and see for yourself if you are ready to sit your exams without taking a course!

If you are currently designing web pages you will already know that Macromedia is the one to use for professional sites.

Due to demand we now have the Macromedia MX Studio software available to purchase from us.

CompTIA has announced a special offer designed to help you gain your CompTIA certification.

If, (heaven forbid) you should fail your CompTIA exam first time you will be able to resit the exam at half price!

This offer only applies for retakes until December the 31st.

For more information go to the CompTIA web site.

As we develop, add more information and material, and upgrade our certification courses we find that we now have to raise the fees for them in line with the other courses in our range. Look out for fee rises at the beginning of November as we introduce these changes.

Note that although we will increase the fees on the web site we will hold our fee increases for all those receiving this Newsletter until the 1st of December. 

If you are seriously thinking of training in the New Year, it would be wise to save yourself money by enrolling prior to the fee changes (we can hold your course material until you are ready in January!)
