Free Online Self-Education
Let's face it: universities cannot keep up with the breakneck
pace of information technology development. Many, if not most, IT professionals
today are self-taught -- bright people, like you, who have the initiative
to find the cutting-edge technologies of tomorrow, learn them, and put
them to use. Below are a few useful resources for educating yourself,
mostly free.
Free-Ed.net offers a variety of
classes in computer technology ranging from building your own computer
to advanced programming in ASP. Though course materials do not yet offer
the very latest technologies such as COM+, you can still educate yourself
in a variety of important information technology areas.
Informit.com provides free access
to the text of a large number of Sam's and Que information technology
reference or self-tutorial books.
Brainbuzz.com provides free up-to-date
information on most modern certifications, including over 130 "cramsessions,"
study guides that compile the most important information to know prior
to taking your certification examinations.
