A+ Certification: Part 1 – Computer Hardware, System Boards, and Storage Devices
Course Overview
The A+ Hardware Service Technician exam will cover in detail the different hardware components and peripheral components you may experience in a normal technician’s daily job. Though you may have extensive experience with troubleshooting computer problems or issues, there are many “details” that the exam covers which you may not have experienced yet or may need to refresh your knowledge on.
This courses will give a broad overview of computer hardware, provide detailed information into the System Board, and provide a detailed look into storage devices. Throughout the course, you may be stopped at different points to be given a “pop” quiz about details in the section you have just learned. You can skip these quizzes and return to them later if you wish to continue studying. In addition, the links on the right can lead you to more study destinations for the exams.

I just finished going to college taking the compTia A+ course and paid over $7000 for 6 months of training. I wish I found your site sooner. I am still paying back the training at $86.41 a month.
I’m sorry you spent all that money before finding this site! Good luck in the future, Robert.

I must say, am impressed with your web site.Great job you av done.
I WOULD LIKE THE A+ COURSE OUTLINE HELP PLS
Is this course free…?
@ debbie, After going through the information available here, I would recommend looking through the comptia website which will offer free practice tests in regards to A+ certifications to. If you can consistantly make 85% or higher on the practice tests, you should be ready for the real certification test. It will cost a bit, but if your working for an IT company, a lot of them will compensate you if you pass the test. Good luck!
