As part of my retraining as an IT specialist and in preparation for the IHK final exam, I completed the module "PC Technology" at my training provider in Hamburg.

PC technology is not considered one of the more demanding basic modules in IT specialist training for nothing. Accordingly, I was delighted that the subject matter was to be taught by our instructor, Mr. Nico Betz, with whom I had already successfully completed the modules "MS Excel" and "Basics of Operating Systems / PC Windows".

Mr. Betz divided the diverse learning material into three scripts, which prepared the extensive and demanding learning material very well and presented it clearly and understandably using slides (with numerous color illustrations). Topics included: Hardware components of a PC, categories of PCs, connections and interfaces, NAS and SAN as well as the most important RAID systems in use and of course many other topics relevant to the exam.

During the lessons, Mr. Betz explained in detail, understandably and very precisely and was thus able to convey the wide range of topics to the group of participants in an excellent way. During the elaboration of the topics, the participants were also involved and through the resulting dialogue, answers could be conveyed even better. This was particularly helpful for us retrainees, because in this way the learning material could be absorbed and structured more easily.

Since the module is full of calculations of all kinds, Mr. Betz attached great importance to the completion of many practical exercises (in individual as well as group work) during the course. The tasks including calculations were discussed in detail after completion. It should be emphasized at this point that Mr. Betz especially trained us course participants to read the tasks very carefully and not to interpret any unnecessary things into them. This is particularly necessary with regard to the final examination at the IHK, as this lack of attention can lead to valuable points being given away in the examination. Topics dealt with here were among other things: Uninterruptible power supply (UPS), calculating data storage volume, calculating printing costs, determining data transfer rates, calculating electrical power / calculating power reserves, RAID systems (e.g. failure rate, net storage capacity), etc.

A special " icing on the cake " was our practical day. We retrainees had the task, together in small groups, to disassemble PCs, identify the individual components, determine the upgrade potential of our system and, of course, at the end everything should be reassembled and functional again. Mr. Betz not only gave us the opportunity to try our hand at classic desktop PCs, but we were also able to use laptops and all-in-one PCs that Mr. Betz (as well as our training provider) had made available to us. The practical day was so well received that even our predecessor group took the opportunity to work hand in hand with us to master the tasks set (due to the Corona measures, our predecessors had to use the home office). It was also very pleasing that the participants supported each other under the professional guidance of Mr. Betz.

Even when there was some tension and unrest within the group during the course of the week, Mr. Betz's level-headed and clear guidance and instructions were able to turn things around and steer the class back on the right course. Mr. Betz succeeded in working through the entire course material with us in the allotted time and even had us work on a few additional bonus tasks that were intended to help us prepare for the exam.

Conclusion:

My classmates and I agree that this (nevertheless very demanding module) was a great highlight of the previous retraining to become an IT specialist in application development or IT specialist in system integration. Mr. Betz convinces with his competent, friendly and humorous manner and understands how to convey difficult contents to the course participants in a sustainable way (and independent of their previous knowledge level). Having already completed three modules, I can absolutely recommend Mr. Betz as a lecturer, as my classmates and I have had excellent experiences with Mr. Betz!

With best regards from Hamburg

As part of my retraining, I had the pleasure of accompanying Mr. Betz as a lecturer in the classroom at my training provider, CBM Projektmanagement GmbH. Mr. Betz reliably and competently explained all questions concerning the modules.

He always took enough time for his fellow students. I particularly liked Mr. Betz's scripts and exercise materials, especially the exercises in Excel, which also included solutions for performance monitoring so that I could check my progress individually.

I was able to take away a lot from the modules; the demanding material was presented and explained in a comprehensible and very well-structured manner. Thanks to Mr. Betz's teaching, I was very well prepared for the final exams.

Mr. Betz is a passionate lecturer and you can see how much he enjoys his job. In this way, he manages to reach even the weaker participants and bring them to a higher level. I am very much looking forward to the upcoming modules with Mr. Betz!

Warmest regards

Very good lessons, fun and explained really well.

Simple Super, understandable and is learned quickly.

Hello Mr. Betz, first of all thank you very much for your efforts, you have edited the website computer course very nicely and made great. As a beginner I have learned a lot from them I can recommend every beginner to the computer course with them. I thank you again and good luck many greetings Abbas

The price / performance ratio is more than very good :-)
the customer service too

until now I have only good experience with Nico Betz and CompuKurs
I just hope that you continue to do so for a long time

Good instructions, they are very understandable.

Very good I find that the individual chapters are not so long

I cannot praise highly enough the clearly structured design, content, and methodical approach of this computer course program. It provides me, as a computer learner with limited knowledge of the computer world, the insight into the system from the ground up and the understanding of how to use each function that I have long desired. The male voice is very friendly and pleasant and the audio and visual instructions easy to understand. The ability to learn or repeat each chapter or step of a chapter at your own pace, to also possibly take notes, is a huge advantage of a computer guided computer course. But in addition to that, having the possibility to have personal contact with the provider, Nico Betz, by mail or by phone, to get his advice or immediate, direct help with technical problems, e.g. in my case with my own computer and its access to the course, is another inestimable advantage. You have the feeling that a gentle friend is sitting next to you and patiently explaining everything.

Many well structured courses. The knowledge is tested in the final test... recommended

I found the courses very educational and helpful for me. The courses have helped me a lot in the operation of my computer and I am very grateful for that. I also find the cost of the courses completely ok. Since I am always kept up to date, which offers me no book.

I have never felt so good . Very dedicated lecturer, helpful. Very relaxed and productive learning material. As a novice to this field, I was given an extensive knowledge , without being overwhelmed step by step. Many practice exercises.

very competent advice and support

If you know what you want to achieve, this is an optimal/appropriate offer,
for which I would gladly sacrifice my time again ! A -round offer !
It was fun, thank you !
