Networking Courses?

[JackDoyne]

So i'm an IT apprentice at a telecommunications company, i want to broaden my hardware and networking knowledge

 

I was thinking an online course might be the best option to gather some useful information

 

Is there any free courses you'd recommend? 

 

Thanks!

CBT Nuggets on YouTube is a great resource

You can do Cisco CCNA, CCNP. I've got some Cisco equipment that I'd like to sell. If you want them PM. Depends on your location. You can learn everything online.

You will find a lot of courses that are beginner level and too easy. You say you are an apprenticeship means you will be getting various certs so the beginner stuff will be below you. Have a look at the cyber security certs. The company behind Kali Linux has a cert that is supposedly the cheapest respectable cert

The best place to start is the CCNA certificate stuff. You don't need to take the cert, but all the material aimed at making you pass the cert is really good and ensures that you get some essential knowledge about a wide variety of network stuff.

I'd say go and buy a Lynda.com subscription and start watching the lessons for CCNA and CompTIA N+ certifications. You'll probably want to end up getting the certifications later anyway, so it's a good time to start learning.
