Comparing IT courses? Most stop at a certificate. This one puts you to work for a real UK business. Never worked in IT? You start with the fundamentals and build up to CompTIA A+. Earn 3 CompTIA certifications (ITF+, A+ and Cloud Essentials+) and get placed on a live, fully remote service desk for a real business within 48 hours. Three months later, you have the hands-on IT support experience every advert asks for.
There are thousands of IT courses out there, from short online modules to full qualifications. Most teach useful skills. The problem is what happens next: you finish, start applying, and every advert asks for experience. IT courses beginners take are a good start, but employers want to see that you have used those skills for a real business.
If you searched "it courses near me" or "it courses in the uk", it is worth knowing that location matters far less than what the course leads to. Our training is 100% remote, so it works wherever you live, and it is built around one thing: getting you real experience and then a job.
On Experiencely you train for CompTIA ITF+, A+ and CompTIA Cloud Essentials+, around 100 hours, and within 48 hours you start a placement with a UK business doing real IT support work. After at least 3 months you get a reference, a rebuilt CV, interview prep and introductions to employers.
Most people learn IT support from videos and still can't get hired. You get the CompTIA certifications employers look for, all included in one programme, with a mentor in your corner.
Your first step into IT. Proves you understand the basics of computing, software, databases and security, even if you have never worked in tech.
