Trainer Feedback

The MTA is more suitable for our learners compared to the

Network+ I would be happy to deliver this

This is easily attainable for our students

I believe this qualification is exactly what we need

It covers the basic elements required for the MCTS This is the perfect step

forward

I am sure that our learners will pass the

exam and this will increase their

confidence
