Hello! I have signed on to
the web site
and have navigated
my way through the introductory course as well as the first module of the
Project Management Course...very user friendly... I'll continue to use it.
Thanks, Nancy - Toronto - May 15, 2001
I logged on the
server as soon as I received your e-mail,
and just can't leave it alone. I have three certificates already hanging
on my wall. Being able to hang those right away was certainly a moral
boost! Great idea. I'm looking forward to my online studies. Anita -

Just wanted you to know that myself, Kevin
and both Lisas have logged
on successfully. I have begun my course and find it very helpful with my
Windows 2000
Pro textbook. The review questions help to keep me on track and reinforce
what I have
learned. I would like to set up administrative access for the credit union
staff
both for monitoring progress and providing incentives and rewards. Please
let me know how to do this. Thank you for your help. December 5, 2000

I have checked a couple of your
free courses. I am at work and time for learning is short. So far I like
what you're providing. Please keep it up. I do plan on trying a one year
subscription for one of your full courses. November 28, 2000.

I was able to log
on successfully today and have already tried the free section. I am

Angela, Homemaker achieves A+ Certification
I just wanted to let you know I wrote both my A+
exams today and passed them both. I was very nervous going into it and
during the exams, but I guess I must have learned something cause I passed
:-) Thanks to the course from your site and a lot of reading and studying, I
was able to do well. Rosetown, Saskatchewan, November 15, 2000.
Dwayne and Jeffrey Helberg. Father and Son
My 9 year old son and I are taking the UNIX course and we are having a fun
time.
Before starting a course you have the opportunity to do a pre-test based
on the subject matter. This enables you to decide whether you can omit
some of the program based on pre-acquired knowledge. Learned objectives
are introduced at the beginning of each unit in a course. Every 5 - 10
pages there are test questions that will comprise
your grade at the end of the unit. Individuals can progress through the
courses at their own pace and can review any portion at any time.
What we like about the courses is that information is concise and there is
little time wasted on filler. My son has started the A+ Certification
course. I am also taking the A+ Certification course and have recently
started the Visual Basic 5 course. Of course the extensive library of
courses and their extreme affordability is the reason why
we enrolled to begin with.
We highly recommend Duncans MindLeaders as a training vehicle for you and
your family.
I believe that the computer world is still the wild west. Companies are
still hiring employees based on what they know and not how
their knowledge was obtained. Regina,

The next big killer
application for the Internet is going to be education. Education over the
Internet is going to be so big it is going to make e-mail look like a
rounding error.
Ron Meyer, A+ Candidate, Nanaimo, B.

Thanks very much for your assistance with the enrollment problems I had
earlier today. I followed your e-mail instructions and the login
was successful. Once again, thanks, I was most impressed with your
attention to my problem and to tell you the truth your response was
amazing. Perhaps you can send AT&T a copy of your customer service
manual. October 16, 2000
Chris
Brooks, 12 yrs, A+ Candidate, Duncans Associate
Hi! My name is Chris Brooks, I am 12 years old. I have been learning
with Duncans MindLeaders for about 2 1/2 years. I really like the
way of learning in MindLeaders, you can Learn when you want, anywhere
you want, and the best of all, you can learn at your own speed.
MindLeaders is an easy to use interface which is really good and
helpful. They explain everything step-by-step. MindLeaders is WAY
better than the way we learn in school. With MindLeaders you don't
have a teacher teaching you. You learn at your own pace and not as a
class because in a class you might get behind and miss something and
with MindLeaders you won't get left behind because your learning at your
own pace.
Christopher
Custodio, 12yrs, A+ Candidate, Duncans Associate
Hi! My name is Christopher-Ace Custodio, I am 12 years old. I have
been learning with Duncans MindLeaders for the past two months. I wanted
to learn with Duncans MindLeaders online because you can learn almost
anywhere you have a computer and it is really easy to access and you can
learn a of things about computers and you can learn things that can help
you fix your computer when there is something wrong with it. I think
Duncans MindLeaders is good source of good information and it can help you
in the future. Regina, October 14, 2000
Colin
Gilbert, 14yrs, A+ Candidate, Duncans Associate
Hi everybody. My name is Colin Gilbert. Let me tell you a little about
myself. Before I took MindLeaders courses at Duncans, I had barely any
self-esteem, and little to do after school. Thanks to MindLeaders, I feel
ready to move on with my life to be a computer professional! I love the
courses. They are so interesting! There is also a glossary! It's like a
facilitator sitting beside you, helping along the way! They are the best!
I love to use them because it is YOU that chooses WHEN to learn, WHAT to
learn, and HOW LONG you want to learn. Regina, October 14, 2000

11yrs, A+ Candidate,
Duncans Associate
Hi my name is Javon Rector, I am 11 years old. I feel MindLeaders is an
excellent way of delivering knowledge about computers. I personally have
been working with MindLeaders from both home and Duncans for 2 months.
This gives me the unique opportunity to continue a course at home that I
started at Duncans. I hope that everyone achieves the same success that I
have with MindLeaders. Regina, October 14, 2000
I’m
15 years of age and been using MindLeaders for a year now.
I currently have completed 13 courses and plan to complete
more. To me the
MindLeaders is the best way of learning. The courses are right to the
point and very well designed. I really enjoy MindLeaders step-by-step
way of learning. MindLeaders is also convenient; I can access the 500
plus courses from any computer with an Internet connection. I think it
is excellent for beginners and veterans! Regina,

Doug
Sanderson, 16yrs, A+ Certified, CCNA Candidate, Duncans
Associate My name is Doug
Sanderson, I have been a Duncan Associate for 2 years. While I was learning
here I used an on-line system made by a company called MindLeaders.
I found that this method of learning is the best to be found. While using
it I gained the knowledge to become a A+ Computer Technician in about 8
months, while the rest of the time was spent gaining work experience.
Currently I am using MindLeaders to study a certification called CCNA.
CCNA is a certification where I learn how the internet and networking
works. Regina, October 14, 2000
I don't know if you remember me but my name
is Darryl Postnikoff. I work for the Weyburn School Divisions as a
Computer Consultant. I signed up with your courses about a year
ago. I just wanted to send you a brief note and thank you for the
great courses that you have been offering. I achieved my A+
Certification course at the beginning of August. The step by step
approach and the graphical aids as well as the methodical objectives
helped me attain the A+ course. I hope that you continue offering
these courses. The best of luck to you. Once again thanks
for the help. Regina, October 14,

Sam
Munro, 13 yrs, - A+ Candidate, Duncans Associate
My name is Sam Munro and I am 13 years
old. I have been taking the A+ Certification program at Duncans for 6
weeks and I am currently working on the thirteen MindLeaders courses. The
on-line learning is, in my opinion, one of the best ways to learn. The MindLeaders
courses are great, educational and fun which is why I love them. Regina,

Jerrad
DeBolt , 19yrs, A+ Certified, CCNA candidate, Duncans
Associate I don't like trying to contemplate
weather or not what I am learning is relevant or not, MindLeaders
changes that. With a summary like presentation, you are giving exactly
what you need to know, with no filler. MindLeaders is also an excellent,
resource tool, for finding specific information to resolve a single
issue. I myself used the formatted index to setup Exchange Server 5.5.
By going to the section that covered exactly what I was having trouble
with, I resolved my problem quickly. Because each course delivers so
much information in a short space, I don't have to spend hours learning,
like I did in school. All in all, I can't imagine learning any other
way, this is the beginning of the future of education. Regina, October

Kerry
Hjertaas 17yrs, - A+ Candidate, Duncans Associate
My
name is Kerry Hjertaas, and I am 17 years old. I signed up for
the A+ Certification program at Duncans in the middle of August, and
completed the thirteen courses on MindLeaders in less than two weeks.
I have currently been here for about 7 weeks, and am on the verge of
getting my 25th course completion certificate. I love the courses.
They are user friendly, and are very easy to do. I have learned
more in my time on-line than in the last semester of school.
Keep the courses coming!
