If we didn't have a regular deluge of trained computer and network support workers, commercial enterprise in the United Kingdom (along with most other places) would be likely to run into problems. There is an on-going requirement for technically able people to support systems and users alike. The world's hunger for the above mentioned people is growing at an impressive rate, as everywhere we work becomes vastly more reliant on computers.

A study programme has to build towards a nationally accepted qualification as an end-result - not a useless 'in-house' diploma - fit only for filing away and forgetting. Unless the accreditation comes from a company like Microsoft, CompTIA, Cisco or Adobe, then it's likely it won't be commercially viable - as no-one will have heard of it.

At the top of your shopping list for a training program should be proper direct-access 24x7 support with dedicated instructors and mentors. It's an all too common story to find providers that only seem to want to help while they're in the office (9am till 6pm, Monday till Friday usually) and nothing at the weekends. Look for training where you can receive help at any time of day or night (irrespective of whether it's the wee hours on Sunday morning!) You want direct-access to qualified mentors and tutors, and not simply some messaging service that means you're parked in a queue of others waiting to be called back at a convenient time for them.

The best training colleges provide an internet-based 24x7 package pulling in several support offices across the globe. You get a single, easy-to-use environment which seamlessly accesses whichever office is appropriate at any time of day or night: Support on demand. If you fail to get yourself online 24x7 support, you'll quickly find yourself regretting it. It may be that you don't use it in the middle of the night, but consider weekends, evenings and early mornings at some point.
