Okay if you want to become Apple certified.

I’m used to teach myself new technologies. I took the ACMT Certification and let me tell you, I felt I knew all of that stuff. I was disappointed because they won’t hand out any material or any print out… labs were ok. you won’t get any cert that prove you took the course from them. For what it is, it should cost less. Way overpriced.

I just completed a course called, Mac OS X Support Essentials 10.5 and I have to say, it was a fantastic course that exceeded all my expectations.
The course ran from Tuesday-​Thursday between 9am — 5pm. The course covered the Mac OS X Support Essentials v10.5 Student Workbook from the Apple Training Series and when I say covered it, it literally covered every single page.
Lucky for me and the others, there were only 3 people total in the class, so we had a ton of personal instruction. Our instructors name was Douglas and he was one of the best instructors I have ever had, at any level of instruction. He knew his stuff and had a great way of getting us to understand the concepts. He had some great analogies that really helped the 3 of us grasp the inner workings of OS X 10.5.
Included in the price of the course was the Mac OS X Support Essentials v10.5 Student Workbook as well as the Mac OS X Support Essentials Second Edition book. Both of these are serious, 500+ page workbooks that cover everything needed to pass the Apple Certified Support Professional (ACSP) 10.5 certification.
Once I take the exam and get certified, I am hoping to take the Mac OS X Server Essentials course to prepare for the ACTC. I will definitely make sure any other classes I take are taught by Douglas. I am sure the other instructors are great as well, but the way Douglas taught us helped me understand OS X 10.5 better than I could have imagined.
