CompTIA

Every organisation in our information economy is reliant on the army of IT specialists who keep our systems running, ensure data is backed up, answer our service desk enquiries and provide day to day support.

Ensuring that the IT support team are professionally trained can have a very positive impact on operational performance.

The internationally recognised CompTIA certifications are widely recognised in this area - and can be used as a precursor to higher level Microsoft professional qualifications.  For more information see the CompTIA section of our Certification Tracks resource.
