Anyone here go through a certification boot camp and survive?

[Uncommon Sense]

I`m thinking of taking a course in computers.
Right now, I`m an electrician but I`m trying to decide if there`s other stuff out there for me.
I love tinkering with computers,-- building, fixing, modifying, etc. Photoshop and other kinds of editing are of interest to me too.

There is a local school called PC Productivity, which specializes in blasting students through 14 different certifications in a matter of 9 months.
However, the cost is 28 g`s and I`ve been told through the IT poeple here at work that they would recommend a local Tech school over something like this. The tech school would be cheaper ($75 per credit), but the schooling would take 2+ years of night classes verses the 9 months of night school with PC Productivity.
I need to keep my current day job whilst I attend schooling.

Any thoughts?? Questions?

Listen to the guys pointing you to your local tech college. . . trust me. I've been in IT for 7+ years now and am at a point where influence the hiring of new IT people in our org and we stay right away from people with "boot camp" type experiences. Reason being that all it ends up being is book knowledge at best and we've been burned one too many times with people that really didn't know what they were doing or what they were "taught" to do.

There is no way that you can actually learn/remember/apply the material they stick to you in a environment like that. On the flipside, it might take you longer to acquire your degree/certification for a local community college but your likely to have to apply that knowledge in class/labs and will end up with real hands-on/working knowledge in the end.

Hope this helps.
