Computer Based Training (CBT) and Certification

Computer Based Training is achieved with the use of materials used on your computer at your pace (as opposed to instructor-led training). Certification is used to measure a candidate’s knowledge of a particular computer technology or subject resulting in the passing of an examination and issuing of a certificate. When a person gains a computer certification they can:

Prove their skills are of an appropriate level to merit a qualification issued by an IT body such as Microsoft, CompTIA, Cisco, EC Council etc
Increase their marketability
Increase their annual income or receive a bonus
Possibly receive a promotion

There are many ways in which a person can gain their computer certification:

Classroom or Instructor Led Computer Certification
Computer Based Training (CBT) Computer Certification via Web Based Training (WBT) or CD/DVD Based Training
Books and Reference Material Computer Certification

Computer Based Training (CBT) is fast becoming a popular method for gaining a computer certification for the following reasons:

• An individual can study at their own time and pace so they can learn at a rate they are comfortable with
• More cost effective – CBT is much more cost effective than classroom training
• Self-study courses combine instructor led video lectures with workbook and computer-based training thereby utilizing more than one learning method which greatly enhances a student's retention level

In a nutshell, computer based training combines the “best bits of classroom training” such as the video clips of instructor sessions with the “best bits of reference material” such as technical information and practice questions to provide a great all round training experience which is beneficial to both student and employer at the best price available.

There are a wide range of computer certifications available for study using computer based training. Visit the following website for further information:
