Computer Technology Instructor

"After reviewing Network Pro, I realized what I could teach the students was significantly less than what TestOut provided. I ended up purchasing a site license almost immediately. Network Pro is such an awesome resource for any program! TestOut does hands-on to the max with Network Pro having over 100 simulations to complete with auto-grading capabilities. There is no other IT Training software that is comparable!

"I liked it so much, I changed the classroom environment to accommodate Network Pro. My class is designed so that it instructs the students (with all the boring stuff 😉) and gives them practice with simulations while I do the fun, in-class, hands-on projects with them. I call it fun, but many students enjoy the consistency of the simulations always working and the reset button being a quick option when they make a mistake, things that are not always available in the real-world.  I have enjoyed the product so much, I got my local university interested in it as prior learning."

"I have been utilizing Network Pro as my teaching tool in my CIS 228 Networking Essentials class for the last 2 years and am very pleased with the product. I have been in the IT industry as an IT Professional for the last 30 years, specifically as a Network Engineer and as an IT Manager, and have been teaching in our Coconino Community College as an adjunct instructor.

"Network Pro is a great product to utilize to prepare my students for CompTIA's Network+ exam. I often tell my students if they consistently score 90% on the Practice Questions throughout the semester, the probability of them passing CompTIA's Network+ certification exam is very high. I also utilize TestOut PC Pro in my CIS 130 class as a teaching tool for preparing my students for CompTIA A+ Certification exam and am very happy with it. I recommend both courses to any future instructors."

"I have been using TestOut Network Pro for ten years in a vocational high school setting.  It is by far the best training product available. Network Pro offers students an environment like no other to practice their networking skills. The interactive labs support student learning by offering them real-life simulations and access to a plethora of operating systems, network equipment and network applications.

"In my course, I have students complete the simulated labs first, and then have them use the real equipment in class; this allows students to have some experience before actually configuring network devices. TestOut Network Pro does a great job preparing students for their CompTIA Network+ exam and their analytics really help me pinpoint areas where students may be struggling. I would recommend this product to any instructor, new or seasoned, who is teaching networking or preparing students for the Network+ exam."
