So after wasting a large part of my life working in couple different industries iv decided that IT is the correct route for me.

It seems getting a comptia a+ cert is a good start for someone green wanting an entry level or at least start going the right direction. (please let me know if im way off)

Anyone can point me to some study/practice/learning/helpful material? And if im incorrect about CompTIA A+ cert being a good starting point for an entry level let me know thanks.

I don't know anyone that has comptia a+, but it looks like a decent intro. It does strike me as something they would teach you at almost any helpdesk type position. But after skimming the contents, I like their focus on troubleshooting, which is an essential skill that can (has to) be learned.

If you want to know more about certain subjects, there are a ton of resources online available. Microsofts learning site offers learning material on almost anything MS related, for example.
