Roy,
If your local community colleges do not offer courses check out the
online courses such as:
* http://www.opsschool.org/en/latest/
*
http://education-portal.com/articles/List_of_Free_Online_Networking_Courses_and_Classes.html
* http://f12.class2go.stanford.edu/networking/Fall2012/
Longer term:
- Send them to LOPSA-east next year. They will meet a lot of good
people and get great training for a reasonable cost.
cheers,
ski

Hi All,
I'm looking at the possibility of hiring an 'IT assistant' from within;
this is an individual who's a relatively savvy 'power user' who has been
interning in a non-IT role. This person would be doing mainly
end-user/desktop type support. Seems pretty strong in basic desktop
stuff but lacking somewhat in network fundamentals. Well motivated and
eager to learn though.
Any recommendations on a training offering that might help this
individual get up to speed quickly? Of course I thought of A+ but I
wonder if that might be too hardware-centric.... there would certainly
be some of that, but not the focus of the position.
Thanks for any suggestions.
Roy
