Overview

Certified IT 1, 2 & 3 Line Support Technician Training Overview

This Certified IT 1, 2, and 3 Line Support Technician course, delivered by our knowledgeable and experienced trainers, is designed to give delegates a basic understanding of how IT Support functions on multiple levels. The course covers the core elements of each level, aiming to help delegates understand how each level works and to which level they might be best suited.

Undertaking this course from The Knowledge Academy will allow you to understand the different lines of IT support, which can broadly be broken down into the following three sections: first-line, which is usually a phone and internet-based position and involves tackling password resets, troubleshooting, and other basic user problems; second-line support, which handles more advanced problems such as desktop issues and enabling or disabling user accounts; and third-line support, which manages servers and oversees an organisation’s IT infrastructure.

Gaining Certified IT 1, 2, and 3 Line Support Technician status, by successfully finishing this course and receiving our certificate of completion, will prove to employers that delegates are competent not just of basic first-line IT support but can also tackle the more advanced tasks of second- or third-line support. This course will, therefore, equip delegates to undertake a wide range of IT support tasks, which is especially useful for organisations wherein the line system is not used or there is significant overlap between the different lines of IT support.

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
