Err... probably not...

Depends on what you want to do its a big subject...

?????

eg..

Novice...
  1. get a book on A+ and take A+
  2. Do the same for N+
  3. Get CBT nuggets Videos for Windows XP pro
  4. Take your XP Pro and Server exam
Or
  1. Do 1+2 above
  2. Study for Cisco CCNA and keep going...
Lots of online study material avaiable

PM me if you want some more advice but put your skill level and what you'd like to do...

learningtree.co.uk is really good. We use them at work for all our training needs.

I havent heard much about skilltrain, but stay away from computeach as they are far to expensive, poor tutoring and bad customer service. IMO

I did a three month course with a company in London, Just IT. http://www.justit.co.uk/ Got 2 MCP's, A+, NCP (Novell) and CCNA. They got me a placement which then turned into a job. I picked them over the other companies I saw as they analysed my CV before I even signed up to the course.

If you are interested then give them a call and let them know that Edwin sent you (I was the star pupil at one point ). Ask for Sunil, Simon or Bee but if you want more details then PM.

Got me on the ladder so if that is what you looking for then well worth a call.

I am not associated with them though but owe them a lot as they got me into IT!

Good luck.
