AST Education, a division of the JSE-listed Advanced Software Technologies-Abraxas (AST-A), has announced its accreditation as an authorised Sylvan Prometric Testing Centre enabling students to take certification tests for MCSE, MCSD, A+ and N+ courses.
"With today`s expanding world of IT, students looking to enter the IT market must acquire skills on a whole set of technologies and not concentrate on one," says Esther Fouche, GM of AST Education.
"We kept this in mind when setting up our training programme, which also consists of Internet and Intranet workshops, Web design and front page design courses," adds Fouche. "This makes them more marketable and gives them a grasp on a whole range of technologies."
"Another added benefit to our full time students is our inclusion of not only theory but practical workshops as well, which prepares them for practical on-site training. This allows them to be productive from day one, saving their employers time and money."
Fouche explains that after each module`s exam, full time students do a follow up revision session. This allows students to see where they went wrong and to fill in the gaps, preparing them even more.
AST Education has strict selection criteria for these courses, which includes an aptitude test, ensuring the student`s suitability to a career within the IT market as well as their ability to successfully complete the course.
AST Education provides high quality IT education and training. They cover generic IT professional education and training, product-specific training and customised courses to meet the specific needs of their clients. They have also established strong alliances with some of the world`s leading educational organisations in Europe, Australia and the USA. This allows AST Education to offer a full solution to their clients. For more details on these courses, please contact Esther Fouche (T) 012 665 2162 or esther.fouche@ast.co.za
