NC-Expert is a Global Training and Consulting Company Focused On The Enterprise

Yes. Almost all of our classes can be attended remotely.

Remote attendance is in real time - but class is accessed from the comfort of your own office or home.

Our team has developed a presentation methodology whereby students don't miss out on anything except the stress and added expense of travel:

• they can interact with the instructor and other students just as if they were all in the same room,
• our labs are accessed identically for all students (regardless of attendance method), and
• class materials are provided to all students in exactly the same way*

We always deliver live/real-time, instructor-led training. We do not use pre-recorded video to present "instructor-led" classes.

*We ship hardcopy materials, to remote students, for CWNP classes. All other classes use electronic materials.

Unfortunately we do not offer that option, at this time.

Most of our students are sent to us by their employers, who pay for the courses on their behalf.

Most NC-Expert CWNP students will receive an associated exam voucher at the end of class. Please do not arrange exams prior to class attendance as NC-Expert cannot issue refunds for pre-purchased exams.

*NC-expert does not arrange exams onsite.

We do NOT recommend this.

Students are encouraged to re-read and study their course materials -thoroughly- before attempting any exam.

In recent years CWNP performed a study of exam candidates which concluded two things:

1. that the average time between attending class and sitting the exam was 6-8 weeks
2. those who attended instructor-led training (in person or remotely) were more successful in their exams than those students who attempted their exams following a course of self-study

We recommend that our students should take some time to prepare themselves. If a student rushes head-first into the exam, without studying properly, they may miss a vital concept or other part of their study that may cause them to fail their exam.

By training with an instructor our students have a valuable resource at their disposal - we encourage them to use it. We welcome after-class questions. We also recommend that our students make friends with their classmates and arrange to study together. Helping others, and entering into discussions together, really helps to cement knowledge... and make studying fun!

We want our students to succeed and will do all we can to help.
