The Dell Academy A+ Program is a semester long course which includes everything a school, district, or state needs to deploy A+ certification curriculum, all while matching workforce development objectives. A+ Certification, an industry recognized credential, certifies that students have the knowledge equivalent to a computer technician with six months of on-the-job experience. Additionally, the Dell Academy gives students the specific training required to repair and maintain Dell Systems.
Class time will be spent doing hands-on lab work, completing group projects, listening to lectures, and preparing for exams. Students will explore operating systems, MS-DOS, Windows 98/2000, basic networking, troubleshooting, and computer hardware. The Dell Student materials further enhance the program by adding Dell specific system training covering the Dell Optiplex hardware, BIOS configurations, and support training.
In addition, the Dell Academy will provide dual credit opportunities for high school students, allowing students to receive high school credit and college credit simultaneously. Students benefit by receiving reduced costs in waivers and fees and by taking advantage of current tuition costs versus potential higher costs in the future.
