Course Description
To assist an individual seeking employment as a Help Desk technician, this program and associated workbook aims to provide an overview of the typical knowledge and skills required, without focusing on any one technology vendor or platform.
A typical Help Desk Technician provides an extension of the skills required by a senior Help Desk technician, who may be responsible for second-line support as well as for performing specialist maintenance activities.
This program does assume the reader already has some technical knowledge that will be utilized in a Help Desk role. The focus of the program is on the high-level practices that are important when providing Help Desk support services, including customer service, IT Service Management and the technical activities that will be performed.

This is a great course. I like how the instructor breakdown the physiological aspect into the field. This is the first time someone has added that into any training. I would recommend.

useful and easy to understand

It seems like a good match. I have interviewed for a Help desk position several times and non of these concepts came up in the interview. I am still looking forward to hold a position in the field. That's what drawn me to this course.

Good information about many principles that may be useful when interacting with clients or team work.

The course itself was pretty good and I did learn some new things. Although upon completing the course, Udemy is not recognizing the completion. First time this has happened on any of the courses I've taken here.

The course delivery was very excellent, but there was lots of topographical errors and sentences construction errors in the transcript. The voice say something and the transcript spells something else. It was misleading. Hope it will be corrected in the future videos. Overall, the course was ok

It is a well laid out course made easy to follow. It also refreshed my memory on things I already knew and didn't realise
