I'm looking to hammer out my CCNA in the next few months and found an organisation called ComSupport. It's reasonably priced and appears to do the job. I noticed it is used for those with ELC so I hope someone can help tell me what they're like before I spend my hard earned cash.

Probably way too late but try 1Training up in Glasgow, the exam fee and accommodation is included. Plenty of kit to play with also.

Joe from CCNA Training CCNA Voice & Security classroom courses from £395+vat with Integrated E-learning Program was on here a while ago.

See: Free CompTIA Network+ On-line Course

I took part in some of the free CompTIA Network+ Webinars and it was pretty good. Can't comment on the full courses as haven't attended but Joes method of instruction at the webinars was pretty good.

(Their webinar is basically an online course listening to the instructor, looking at a whiteboard with interactive (typed) chat to answer (or ask)questions).

Fatboy, is that from personal experience or you just seen the website?

Personal experience, I'm the Cisco Instructor, lol.

But if he wants to use his ELC then accommodation cannot be included in the price, and is CCNA a level 3 or above qualification?? ELC can only be used for level 3 quals or above.

That doesn't stop the training company offering free accommodation and yes it is a level 3 course.

I think you will find if you check that ELC can be used towards a course that will eventually conclude with a Level 3 NVQ or above. At least this is what i was told when checking up on this. As long as it is a progresive course with final outcome being NVQ level 3.
And also ELC can be used in conjunction with resettlement grant in which case accomodation can be include.

Need to also factor in your 20% contribution so to get full value then you are better taking a good course and possibly paying more than your 20% to get your full value depending on your tier. 1000 or 2000 pounds.

The Cisco courses at 1 Training are very good and the instructor knows his stuff. Don't touch the Microsoft courses with a barge pole....the instructor is tonk.

A pal of mine recently did Cisco course at 1 Training and said it was very good (mind you he was the only one on the course) and he highly recommends them. I think I may use them in the near future........just looking for an online course to prepare.

That's quite common. I run the course every week so you can pretty much always guarantee low numbers. It's good for the guys (and girls) as they can really concentrate on their weaker areas without fear of having to keep pace with the rest of the class and good for me as I can digress with extra materials not normally include in the official curriculum.

P.M me your details if you need some prep materials.
