Why are IT Helpdesk courses important?
When you work in a professional IT environment, your employer will need you to have the skills and certifications so you are proficient at what you do. In an IT helpdesk environment, you will support users with hardware, operating system and software issues. So you need to be able to troubleshoot to a 1st line level initially.
Thereafter you will progress your career to dealing with more complex 2nd line support issues. After that, you may choose to progress your career to deal with 3rd line support. In 2nd and 3rd line support you would be dealing with more server and networking related issues amongst others.

What is a ‘regulated qualification’?
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.
What is an ‘endorsed’ course?
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.
