Jason Kendall asked:


As your research has brought you here there’s a good chance that either you’re considering a career change into IT and the MCSE has reared its head, or you’re already in a networking related industry and you’ve realised that you need a qualification such as MCSE.

As you do your searches, you’ll hit upon training providers that compromise their offerings by failing to use the current Microsoft version. Steer clear of this type of college as it will create challenges for you with the present exams. If you are studying an old version, it will be hard to pass. Computer training companies should be completely focused on establishing the best direction for prospective students. Mentoring education is as much about guiding people on establishing which way to go, as it is helping to help them get there.

A typical blunder that students everywhere can make is to choose a career based on a course, and not focus on where they want to get to. Universities are stacked to the hilt with students that chose a program because it looked interesting - instead of the program that would surely get them the career they desired. Don’t let yourself become one of the unfortunate masses that choose a course that sounds really ‘interesting’ and ‘fun’ - and end up with a plaque on the wall for a career they’ll never really get any satisfaction from.

Spend some time thinking about how much you want to earn and whether you’re an ambitious person or not. This can often control which particular exams you will need and how much effort you’ll have to give in return. It’s worth seeking help from an experienced person that knows the commercial realities of the industry you’ve chosen, and is able to give you ‘A day in the life of’ outline for that career-path. This is very important as you’ll need to know whether or not you’ve chosen correctly.

Trainees looking at this market often have a very practical outlook on work, and don’t always take well to classrooms, and poring through books and manuals. If this could be you, use multimedia, interactive learning, where learning is video-based. If we can study while utilising as many senses as possible, then we normally see dramatically better results.

Interactive audio-visual materials involving demonstration and virtual lab’s will beat books every time. And you’ll actually enjoy doing them. You really need to look at examples of the study materials provided by your chosen company. They have to utilise instructor-led video demonstrations with virtual practice-lab’s.

Some companies only have access to online training only; while you can get away with this much of the time, consider what happens when you don’t have access to the internet or you only get very a very slow connection sometimes. It is usually safer to have physical CD or DVD discs that removes the issue entirely.

Be alert that all qualifications you’re studying for are commercially relevant and are the most recent versions. ‘In-house’ certificates are not normally useful in gaining employment. From the perspective of an employer, only the top companies such as Microsoft, CompTIA, Cisco or Adobe (as an example) will get you into the interview seat. Anything less won’t make the grade.

Some trainers only give support available from 9-6 (office hours) and sometimes later on specific days; not many go late into the evening (after 8-9pm) or cover weekends properly. Look for training with help available at any time of day or night (even if it’s early hours on Sunday morning!) You’ll need 24×7 direct access to mentors and instructors, and not a call-centre that will take messages so you’re parked in a queue of others waiting to be called back when it’s convenient for them.

We recommend looking for colleges that have multiple support offices active in different time-zones. Each one should be integrated to provide a single interface together with access round-the-clock, when it suits you, with the minimum of hassle. Don’t under any circumstances take less than this. Support round-the-clock is the only viable option when it comes to technical training. Maybe late-evening study is not your thing; usually though, we’re working when traditional support if offered.

Wendy N. Lapidus-Saltz asked:


Do you find that your team has more responsibilities, tighter deadlines, later quit times, and fewer free weekends?

Employees today, despite time-saving devices, seem to work harder and longer than 20 years ago, 10 years ago, and maybe even last month! What about the number of times you need to do a few hours of work on a holiday-just to stay caught up?

Despite the apparent need for additional work hours, if you are a corporate employee, chances are you have also participated in some sort of training this year, and I don’t mean fire drill practice.

These trainings may take several hours or several days, and could be on-site or away from the office. Add the travel time, you’re spending many hours on activities other than servicing clients, managing employees, and growing the business.

Is this a good use of time? Well, yes and no.

Let’s start with the most common objections to what are called “time wasters” by some employees and managers:

- Employees are forced to attend even if the information to be acquired is not necessary to their position.

- Some employees choose to attend irrelevant programs to avoid work-leaving the undesirable tasks for someone else.

- Insufficient information is given about a workshop or seminar so employees find it difficult to discern whether the content will be useful to them.

- When an employee is working at full capacity, dedicating time to additional education is a personal sacrifice: missed work will need to made up, often after hours.

- Often an attendee is not given any credit or reward for attending.

- While upper management approves the classes, middle management is often dismayed by the waste of hours, and may take it out on the employee. Sometimes they may even need to do the employees’ tasks themselves, inciting resentment.

- Often the employee himself is expected to both attend the educational program and get all his work done too.

These seem like convincing arguments to eliminating training during work hours, don’t they? But wait. Let’s give equal time to those who purchase or teach these trainings, and the employees who appreciate acquiring free education on very relevant subjects.

Here are some benefits to trainings and seminar programs:

- Relevant training adds value. By increasing understanding, promoting efficiency, and challenging the mind with something new, training helps employees remain current and marketable both inside and outside the company, and at no cost to them.

- Appropriate training increases efficiency and ease in doing required tasks, which can ultimately give time back to the employee, improving skills, confidence, and morale.

- Right training, right person, right time: when all three are aligned, both company and employee benefit. The company acknowledges the employee’s values and skills, and sets him/her up for continual improvement and future opportunities.

- With good trainers, even the most technical trainings have moments of humor and opportunities to partner with others one has never worked with before. Employees bond in this new situation and learn to work better together.

- Formal or informal coaching relationships may spring up when some find they need help with a part of the training that another employee grasped more easily. This may reach well beyond the day or week of the training.

- Employees leave trainings with new reasons to interact with people they barely knew before, adding cohesiveness to the work force. Sometimes “forced interaction” works beautifully, particularly with shy employees.

- Simply doing something different instead of the familiar routine sparks new thinking and creativity.

Yet training is not perfect. Here are some ideas to add value:

- Consider study/coaching groups or pairs to spark ideas for applying what was learned and encourage participants to hone their expertise.

- Give time off, small bonuses, or prizes to participants, especially those who coach others.

- Thoroughly vet the training before purchasing it. Make sure it really addresses employee needs and desires.

- Be sure that if an employee is scheduled for a training, he is allowed to attend all of it. No interruptions or calling him away to handle a minor emergency. Education works when the employee is allowed to focus and concentrate fully.

- Consider involving some potential users of the training in making the choice of what you’ll be offering so genuine needs are met. Early involvement engages interest, acknowledges intelligence, and can perhaps create informal buzz. All of these pique interest and increase participation.

So is training ultimately a boon or bust?

That depends on all the elements put into place long before the trainer opens her manual, clears her throat, and says “Good morning everyone….” ©2008 by Wendy Lapidus-Saltz. All rights reserved.

Andy West asked:


The world is changing and the business world seems ready to go with it. For those who have been involved in this changing dynamic in corporate America, knowledge of computers and computer systems is absolutely essential. Not only are there new job opportunities opening up in the computer industry, but more and more corporate management positions require a heightened ability to use the computer. In the past, having some knowledge of computer systems was a huge plus when applying for new jobs. In today’s working world, those technical abilities are an absolute must. If you are looking to get ahead, however, you should consider MCSE training in Alabama. Becoming a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer has never been easier, as programs are geared toward the busy business professional.

The certification process for the MCSE certificate is a fairly difficult one, but with some training, it is doable. By passing as few as seven core computer-based exams, many can walk away with the knowledge to go forward in the business world. For the extremely computer savvy individual, these tests are a breeze. The rest of us might need a little bit of training, though. Like any college course or vocational training class, MCSE training will break down not only the basics of the Microsoft Systems, but also the ins and outs of the test itself. Having an advanced knowledge of the computer programs themselves might not be enough, as the core exams can be extremely tricky without the necessary training.

The key to MCSE training in Alabama has nothing to do with how much computer knowledge or technical training you already possess. In order to really have the ability to master the core exams, you must be put through a series of hands-on sessions of advanced instruction. Studies have proven time and time again that the best way to master material of a technical nature is through repetitive mental practice. In this regard, training your mind to grasp the very technical ideas behind the Microsoft systems will enable you to pass the certification program with a measure of ease.

Another great way to train for the MCSE core exams is through a cooperative learning effort. When you come to training sessions, you will be put through not only a rigorous mental workout, but also a team effort that incorporates the mind power of many individuals. By working closely with not only the certified instructors, but with other individual business people just like yourself, you can learn at a level and pace that suits your style. In addition, this emphasis on group work will promote a sense of team building that is essential in the working world. When dealing with the often-frustrating computers, it is always best if your corporate team knows how to work together to get the job done the right way.

Many business owners are sending their current employees to these advanced programs in order to stay ahead of the curve. By sending their workers together to classes, the employees gain the first-hand knowledge of how to work with their fellow-employees while gaining the necessary training to become a MCSE. When these workers return to their place of business with this new knowledge and fancy new title, that business has the ability to become something of a corporate juggernaut in an ever-changing business landscape.

If you are trying to get ahead in the business world, consider looking into MCSE training in Alabama. By getting that certification and the experience that goes with it, corporate professionals can further not only their careers, but also the goals of the company that employs them. In today’s technological world, MCSE training has never been easier.

The choice of a career involves a lot of planning. It is the decision of a lifetime. It is essential for you to be passionate about your career. There are a number of career options to choose from and still many more within the paradigms of the existent ones. Your career is your chosen line of work that you are genuinely interested in and hope to make a living from the activities involved. It is very important to take into consideration the element of satisfaction that a career is supposed to offer. The drive to excel in your chosen field and add positively to your career track should make the choice worthwhile.

There are many career options available today, such as business, industry and academics. While some people opt for sales and promotional work, some choose the creative track, such as a career in the Fine Arts.

Some careers involve the full-time participation of special skills. Some capitalize on written and verbal skills, while some concentrate on leadership qualities to delegate work effectively. Your career options also determine the basic qualifications required to pursue a particular field. Graduate and diploma courses are available for many career options. Some of the most popular career choices involve the contribution of special technical know-how in a particular area.

Technical Education

Technical education is available at numerous special institutions and dedicated websites. This type of education is very flexible, offering immediate employment upon completing the course. There are day and night time courses and full and special summer courses available for the students to choose from. This makes it possible for students to continue their regular activities and pursue a technical course. Technical education is best for:

-People who desire individual and special training with hands on experience, to apply the newly acquired knowledge.

-Those who want to keep working on their full-time jobs and want to use holidays or vacation time to continue their basic education

-People who do not have the time, money or inclination to complete traditional degree courses.

Special technical training is available in the spheres of criminal justice, health care, computers and business.

Technical education program:

Technical education programs are usually offered at special technical schools. These programs aim at providing specialized training, rather than traditional education. Students are required to fulfill the following basic requirements:

-A high school diploma or its equivalent.

-Completed 17 years of age.

-Be able to take an entrance exam or submit SAT or ACT scores.

However, the requirements of institutions are different and there are a number of alternatives provided to candidates.

Technical education involves the completion of either a short-term diploma course or a bachelor?s degree program. Students can choose to major in aviation maintenance, computer science, auto collision technology, legal assistance and paramedic training.

The programs and majors offered should be researched thoroughly to pick the desired area of study. Various schools offer choices within education programs that are required for a specific trade. Making the decision to pursue technical education ensures the possibility to earn a living upon completion of the course. The institutions offering technical education are many, with each one offering a wide selection of courses.

Rosanne Dausilio, Ph.D. asked:


Most organizations still do not provide comprehensive, let alone adequate, training in today’s marketplace. A recent report by the Service & Support Professionals Association (SSPA) said that only 27% of service and support staff spend more than 5 days on annual ongoing training.

Beyond that, it was found that 82% of new hires feel they do not receive much training in customer service skills, compared to only 18% who feel they do. What an exposure for a company to have–not only to not provide sufficient, robust training, but to have the majority of employees feel they weren’t provided with enough training, so they don’t have the tools necessary to do their jobs!

In another study the good news is that it’s reported that nearly half of US employers plan to spend more time and money on training in 2008 Novations Group Survey). One of the top categories of training is Customer Service, followed by Technical Training, Interpersonal/Teamwork, Communications, on down to Basic Skills.

The part of this study that concerns me is that employers ‘plan to spend more time and money.’ Like me, I’m sure you’ve heard this before. Let’s make sure the feet go where the mouth leads. As they say, talk is cheap, let’s get those training initiatives implemented.

After all, in today’s competitive environment, what separates one company from another is not their product or service, but rather, their customer service.

And who has that awesome responsibility to deliver this world class customer service? Yes, your front lines who feel they haven’t been trained enough in customer service skills.

In a recent Training Magazine Study (November/December 2007), the training delivery methods reflect the following from year 2006 to 2007:

2006 2007

Instructor Led 62% 65%

Online Self Study 15% 20%

Virtual 14% 10%

Other 9% 5%

Where do you fit in the above stats? Are you taking great care of your employees so they can take great care of your customers?

If not, I suggest you make this a priority. Create a training initiative today!
