New Horizons Computer Learning Centers

This testing center was one of two options for my tech certification. The receptionist was polite and helpful during my sign in. The actual testing area is six cubicles in one room. I was in there alone for the first hour — which was great. As they were bringing people in, the staff was polite and tried to stay as quite as possible. During the last hour of my exam, somebody came in and started to take apart the computer from one of the other workstations. Talk about making a ton of noise. He didn’t seem to respect two of us currently testing. Nor did he seem to care. After getting the parts he wanted, walked out and slammed the door.
Unfortunately, there was a different receptionist at the desk once I completed my exam. She was too busy talking on her cell phone to care about what I had to say.
Next time, I’ll just drive to Occoee for my exam.

Decent place.
If your looking to become familiar with a product and you don’t know much about it then this is the right place for you.
Classes are designed to teach you the basics which off of the official training material from companies like Microsoft.
If your looking for more advanced training then this might not be the right place for you. I’d define advanced– you’ve been running the technololgy for 5+ years and have a deep understanding of the product.
Staff are very nice.

Depending on the class and instructor you get, they can be a good choice for training. They have very competitive rates compared to other training companies. Their equipment for labs is top notch and Ive never had an issue with doing my labs.
I question the material at times as it doesn’t seem consistent with the actual vendor’s test. However, maybe that isn’t New Horizon’s fault?
Im not a fan of this location, the area is a little rough and run down, but its close to many great places for lunch.
My employer pays for the classes, so i don’t mind using New Horizons, but if it came from my own pocket, I’d probably go with someone else.
