That’s a huge question. Use the links below to get started.
Then, learn to use Google or Yahoo to search for more sites:
free XP tutorial Repeat, and replace XP with any application name, such as: free Microsoft Word tutorial OR hardware task, like install hard drive tutorial
Hope this gets you off to a good start.
if you want to go up in rank in your IT dept. you are gonna need more than the tutorials the internet offers. Check with your employer about tuition assistance and take courses to get certified at your community college.
Hello;
First, it’s difficult to help you, because I don’t know anything about you… you have no money, but it looks like you are working, but again, this is all confusing the way you wrote it. I have no idea how old you are, and what your current level of education and experience is… but I’ll give it a go.
There are a number of websites out there that will provide free samples of training software, but there’s nothing full length, that’s really for free. Sometimes study groups put up websites, and try to put up questions they can remember from their certification tests, but this is unreliable, and usually not available for long, becuase legally it’s against the law to give away copyrighted materials.
I know what you mean about the expense, my last year at Boston University cost over $35,000.00! Books were the worst! We’d be going through a Microsoft three ring binder about every 4 days, and the small ones cost $180 each! If I had it all to do over, i’d have gone to a community college!
Nothing is for free, and generally speaking, if you get something for free, you get what you paid for. Get the picture? Don’t feel the necessity to go to a big fancy college, or over priced IT school, when you can go to the local community college for chump change. If you are working, then you can afford to pay for some school, and advance yourself. If you cannot afford to pay for school, and you are working, then you can take out student loans… this is available to all, and this is the American Dream so many come here for!
If you aren’t working, then you have no IT department to rise up the ranks of, do you? but the good news is; you can get student loans still, and additionally, grants; to help pay for your college education.
The simple fact is this; After 9/11 the US was hurt so badly, financially, the IT industry changed incredibly, and became even more competitive. I’ve met men who couldn’t get a job for $20/hr, when they used to make $50/hr! They’d also hire you if you knew your stuff, degree or not, certifications or not… but today, they want a degree AND certifications. Free? you won’t find anything current, or relevant for free. You can network with others who want to, or are, learning IT, becuase sometimes there’s things you can’t learn off a book, but with someone else’s experience, you can! You can go to the library and read & take out IT exam books. Maybe you can register at your local college’s library, (some have policies against non students, some don’t). These days, you can also register at your local library, to be a member of the state library, and if they’ve got IT books the local library doesn’t, then you can request them… the library is free! but that’s the only resource I can readily think of.
Seriously consider getting yourself in to school, and getting a degree! If you work, there’s online schools; night & , weekend classes, etc. Talk with a career counselor, and discover your options. What you borrow now for school, will be paid back many times over with the money you make, and the job satisfaction you’ll have, when you get to where you want!
I hope this helped!
