Computer Training Course in New York

PC TECH is located in New York City, located at 42nd Street and Madison Avenue in Manhattan, right next to Grand Central Terminal, making it very easy to get to and from classes. We offer full or part time courses so that you can fit learning computer skills into your schedule, instead of having to work your schedule around the computer classes. We also give evaluation tests, so that you can see how far you have advanced and what you still have to work on in order to become extremely proficient.

To Begin with

If you are just beginning to learn how to run a computer, you will want to take advantage of our basic courses, which include the MCP course and the MCSA course. These courses teach students how to use Windows 2003 and XP Professional. They are the foundation for many of the courses that are available at PC TECH and can help a student to go from knowing nothing, to becoming a master very quickly.

Become an Expert

Some of our more difficult courses, such as the MCSE, Microsoft Certified System Engineer, teach students how to navigate the Network Infrastructure Management and the security for Windows 2003. The CCNA, or Cisco Certified Network Associates courses teach students how to work correctly with routers and LAN’s. They also teach students how to troubleshoot WAN protocols. Students taking Linux courses learn how similar things, except with a Linux system.

International students are welcome

Many of our English students enroll in computer classes as well, so that they can, as the old saying goes, “kill two birds with one stone”. We welcome all those who want to learn how to run a computer, or how to master specific programs, and know that you will find learning in our school as enjoyable as it is effective!

The Digital Age

Everything, and we mean everything, is available on and through a computer. Computers are our lifeblood. They hold all of the information on every person in the planet and are necessary for day to day living. Because of this, every business has a computer, so if you don’t know how to run a computer, your job options are severely limited. You shouldn’t be scared of computers! They are extremely easy to learn how to run and can actually be fun, once you get the hang of things!

Full time or Part time?

We offer full time computer training courses at 18 hours per week. Part-time courses are available for people that need a more flexible schedule, and computer training may also be customized to fit the needs of your corporation or business. All classes are small and almost all feature one on one learning opportunities with certified and experienced trainers. Computer classes are available for beginners as well as advanced people, and are available during the day, evenings and weekends.
