CompTIA A+ Training Program Alumni - Remote Tech Support

“I always had an interest in technology, so when CompTIA classes were offered, I knew
I had to enroll. With CompTIA being such a well-known name, I knew it would be worth
it. CompTIA ended up being more than helping you get certified. It was just the
beginning. They are dedicated to helping you transition from just a job to a career in IT.”
