    Havent done that course but it seems as if its the very basics.Perhaps when you finish doing that look into doing the COMPTIA A+.Fas do a few courses with that and is widely recognised as entry level for pc servicing(apparently its equals 6 months on the job experience)

    Here's a link for it:http://www.comptia.org/certifications/listed/a.aspx

    Cant be bothered trawling through the fas website for links but i know it can be done on line and also as full time(along with the ECDL)

    Thanks nilbymouth,

    that's exactly what I was thinking, for CompTIA A+ Essentials through Fás click here

    I have applied to do the ECDL through fás eCollege, but I find it strange that you have to print off and post an application form for an online course.
