Amraf (MCSE)

[Adam]

Anyone heard anything (good or bad) about Amraf? Am looking to do their MCSE
course in Feb and they sound great but seem very cheap-I know that's cool
but one wonders if it's too cheap to be true.

I too have recently heard of AMRAF - an Essex company moving into
Manchester - i thought ity was to good to be true - MCSE for ¬¬¬¬£1550
cheapest courses otherwise would be in the region of £3000 (i have been
told) - anyone any info on AMRAF ?

I suppose it depends where the money is coming from, but Amraf aim squarely
for the military resettlement market, (of which I was a part).

I think that the timescale, and cost of the courses don't allow for much
indepth work, as it is the examinations are taken after the course has
finished, and they recommend taking a week or two out to revise, and cover
more subject matter.

I believe that many 'hirers and firers' would want some solid networking
experience behind the qualification, if you've got that, and the money to
spare then go for it.
