Computer and IT support specialists repair, troubleshoot, build and upgrade the computers, networks and other high-tech devices that we use every day. They're the people you turn to when you run into technical problems you just can't solve on your own. They can help you replace a part or install new hardware or software. They can set up new equipment and get you connected a network. They can answer questions or help guide you in resolving a problem on your own.<br><br>We can also help experienced professionals upgrade their resumes and get more out of industry-standard software with in-depth classes on Microsoft Word, Access and Excel. Most people who use these programs every day have no idea how powerful they really are. Learning the deeper ins-and-outs can put you ahead of the game. In our IT Essentials course, you can get ready for entry-level repair, support and upgrade jobs by learning hands-on how to put a computer together, get it running, install an operating system and other software, and then take it all apart, again. Our lab is full of routers, servers and brand-new computers just for that.
