Re: [Haifux] MCTIP computer technician course

2011-02-20 Thread Hetz Ben Hamo
Hi,

There are video courses for MCITP which would cost you a lot less and you
can learn at home at your free time. Those MCITP certificates aren't worth
anything anyway - when someone wants to hire you, he would like to check
your experience, not your certificates.

 I prefer to choose this course, at least now, because it will give me a
 useful profession, and I finish it before the beginning of my military
 service.

 In addition, after the military service I can work as a computer
 technician, and to finance my studies in CS

 Course on Linux can be a gift to me, if I sign up computer technician
 course.

 Hi,


 I consider these days to start learning computer technician course.
 This course is MCTIP by Microsoft, + free Linux course.
 Total of 252 + 64 hours, + Microsoft
 and LPIC 1 + 2 exams.

 The price is 11,700, including everything.

 Do you have any idea whether I should study the course?
 You know what the price range for similar courses?
 Any advice?

 Thanks, Amichay

If you take the CS programming courses up front (the programming ones, not
the math ones) and get a good grade then you will have a good chance at
getting a student position at some high tech company for around
50-60nis/hour instead of the minimum wage you will get from being a computer
technician. And those courses are really not that hard. It's the math
courses that are hard.

If you take the CS theory courses up front (the math/theory ones, not
the programming ones) and get a good grade then you will have a good chance at
getting a degree at a leading university, which will allow you to
later work as an engineer at some high tech company for around 100
nis/hour (first year) instead of the 50/60 wage you will get from
being just in a student jobs. And those courses are really not that
hard. It's the programming courses that are hard.

Re: [Haifux] MCTIP computer technician course

Sorry for misleading - by free for all I meant it does not perform a
selection process upon entrance. It is not the getting in that is hard - it
is the graduation that is hard - having the self discipline to finis all
courses (which is why I think highly of their graduates).

Another good point of the openU is that soldiers can do that on their free
time (or even get some time off from the army to go to their courses,
especially if you are in a computer-oriented service). It is especially good
for someone who is used to home-schooling.

On Sun, Feb 20, 2011 at 9:43 AM, Orr Dunkelman orr.dunkel...@gmail.comwrote:

 Please note that the OpenU charges per-course, so it is not that free
 (actually, you can buy the books for a fraction of the course's price,
 but then you do not have access to their support, teaching, etc., and
 most importantly - you cannot take the exam and collect credits).

 On a different note, also HaifaU has programs for good students (Etgar).

Unless you practice this stuff *during* the army service, it would be
gone by the time you finish army:
 - You'll forget most of it.
 - A lot of the material would be obsolete (we are talking about
   technician level hands-on type of knowledge).

So a very focused and expensive training at this stage is investing
a lot of resource with verry little benefit (unless you somehow practise
this knowledge during army service)
