The Network+ certification test is intended to test the skills required of a network technician, who needs to know more than an A+ industry novice but is not yet a MCSE/CNE network expert.

Before you take this course, we would advise that you should have taken and passed the A+ Certification exam or have the equivalent knowledge and experience in IT. An A+ preparation course is available from Kilroy's College.

Our computer-based-training course is brought to you in association with NETg, one of the world's leading developers of e-Learning solutions. NETg's courses are designed to make learning interesting and challenging. By incorporating high quality multimedia, text, graphics, photographs, diagrams and particularly audio, we try to ensure that the information provided is easy to understand.

Our course involves 18 to 24 hours learning time and is designed to equip you with the right skills to perform real work. This preparation course is provided on our unique Skill Builder software which tailors each course to your individual needs.

On all our NETg SkillBuilder courses, you can begin by doing a short skills assessment (called a Pre-assessment) which will give you a clearer idea of what you already know. The courseware will then create a learning path tailored to your own needs so you can spend time only on those areas that you have not yet mastered.
