Re: CompTIA A+ Hello Chris.I just want to tell you that fixing the hard ware of computers will not give you as mutch money as programming gives you.Me my self, i strugle with programming a lot, as you can see, but if you ask around, and just keep trying, you will be more than fine i asure you.For blind people, hard ware can become quite a difficult part of i t.Hope this helps.

Re: CompTIA A+
Re: CompTIA A+ Even sighted people need to get hands-on experience, and a blind person more than likely more-so.The need for software gurus is becoming more demanding than ever before. I hope you find success in your endeavors.Luke URL: http://forum.audiogames.net/viewtopic.php?pid=289429#p289429 ___ Audiogames-reflector mailing list Audiogames-reflector@sabahattin-gucukoglu.com https://sabahattin-gucukoglu.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/audiogames-reflector
Re: CompTIA A+
Re: CompTIA A+ If I have a choice, it will be software. If I'm going to be doing some hardware as well, I'd either need extensive hands on training or a lot of old computers to potentially irreparably destroy. I'll check into it. It's a shame the school didn't have any classes like this. The only classes they offered were programming, graphics/animation, and something about using Office applications. Then again, school got pretty useless past Elementary or Middle school.I think the software situation may be changing very soon. Microsoft will be coming out with an update to Windows 10 that will offer significant improvements in Narrator which include braille support and accessible Windows PE/RE environments. Even if sound support isn't always possible, I'd hope that braille could be used as a substitute on all systems. I haven't been this excited about Microsoft or Windows in forever.

Re: CompTIA A+
Re: CompTIA A+ The link in the last post directed me to a page about a security certification or something. I was immediately turned away by the coding aspect. I don't want to program. I've tried it and have found that I don't have the patience.While I was doing more research on the CompTIA A+, I found some information about computer hardware. I don't know how feasible hardware repair would be. Any thoughts on this? I was thinking more about software troubleshooting such as reimaging computers and keeping them operational. I'm a little scared to go messing with hardware when I can't see the components which are getting smaller and smaller as we move to laptops and mobile devices.As for the general computer science thing, I don't think so. I'm not going for that if I have to sit in a classroom for 2 or 4 years going through remedial classes and other garbage at some community college or university. I'd much rather go to a technical school or something that may provide better and more focused training. Any thoughts are welcome.

Re: CompTIA A+
Re: CompTIA A+ You may be interested in [this] article on IT certifications, it does mention CompTIA. The gist of it is that from an IT security perspective such degree's and certifications can be largely worthless, at least from a skill and education standpoint. You might be better served with a general CS degree, or you could try going for [OSCP] certification.

Re: CompTIA A+
Re: CompTIA A+ I hear you, and I thought, and still do think, much the same thing.From what I've been able to find out, you need either 6 months of experience in the IT field, or an equivalent amount of training. I would presume you must provide proof of this before you can even take the A+ exam. I am not going to go into the experience I had that should have given me this equivalent training on a public forum, but it screwed me over. Enough said. Anyway, I hope you have better luck than I did obtaining this training. Because, frankly, college isn't everything, especially in this day and age. So it's refreshing to see that someone else believes that life doesn't end just because you don't have a diploma, which inevitably leads to lots of money, 4 kids, a lovely, well-tended house, and all the rest, right?

CompTIA A+
CompTIA A+ Hi all,Over the last year or so, I've been trying to find something I might be able to do. I graduated high school in June and spent the next 4 months trying to get into an Apple Store job position. When I finally got an interview in October, I quickly realized it wasn't for me. Now, I'm looking into some other options. I came across the CompTIA A+ certification. I'd like to work in some kind of IT or technical support role, so thought this might help get me started. Does anyone have any information on this? HOw should I proceed? Would it be better for me to go to an actual school or center where I could get hands on instructions from a human? How blind friendly is the whole process? I'd much rather take a $200 or so test than waste 2 or 4 years at a College or other bullshit.
