Fun Fact: Got into IT to help support her daughter

I subscribe to W2k Server News and often see things about LearnSmart. When I looked through LearnSmart’s products and tried their demos only one word could describe them: Awesome. I’ve taken several online training courses with other companies and none of them hold a candle to the amount of information you get in LearnSmart’s videos. LearnSmart’s Cloud Classroom provides a great advantage, allowing me to have my training with me wherever I go. Tablets are the future and companies like LearnSmart are right to start adopting them for things other than games.

Occupation: IT Technician, Jackson County Intermediate School District.
Fun Fact: Started working as an intern for the IT Dept. senior year of High School.

I’ve reviewed many test sites and for the price and amount of certification options available, LearnSmart is the best solution. Having so many certifications at my fingertips allows me to choose what I get certified in. I can look into a technology and if I decide it isn’t for me I can simply go into another certification training technology. I can study at my job under the nice cool air conditioning or anywhere else for that matter, anytime I need to. During breaks, in bed, it’s convenient for me to study wherever I am. It fires up instantly on the iPad and I‘m quickly working towards my certifications. These certifications will help me immensely when any new job opportunities open up—giving me higher positions in bigger companies with higher salaries!

Vonrick Knights

Certifications Held: Network +, Certificate in Computer maintenance, Associate in Science Degree in Information Technology, Bachelor of Applied Information Technology
Position: Senior Software Test Engineer
Certifications Sought: CEH, SQL, ACCESS and Database Design certification, CCNA, CIW
Occupation: IT Officer
Fun Fact: Started his IT Career as an Office Clerk

I used LearnSmart when I did my Network+ in order to further my understanding of information that was provided to me when I did the course locally, as well as to perform the practice exams provided by LearnSmart in preparation for the real exam. I was very impressed by the quality of information provided by LearnSmart as it covered certain areas that were overlooked or not given as much attention as they should have been. I was also able to go over areas in the course that I was still slightly confused about and clarify them.

The practice exams were also a giant help as when a practice run was over the exam software highlighted the different areas of study and pointed out which areas I was weak in and which areas I understood. This helped me to better focus my studies in preparation for the real thing, which I passed with flying colors. Because of my great experience with LearnSmart’s Network + course and all the help it gave me, I decided to achieve my other certifications through LearnSmart’s training programs. Since these are industry recognized certifications they are recognized worldwide and won’t limit me to working in one area of the world.
