I think it just gets you 3 certificates. But they do offer job
placement.
What kind of jobs would you start off with and how much would you earn?
Because otherwise I might go into drafting. I wasn't sure where to
stick this. This place seems to be busy. Thanks in advance for any
advice.

First - what "one year program" are you speaking of?

Second - in the real world - it's not just the letters behind your name and
what certificates you have that get you a job - those get you in the door
and may (but probably won't) affect the salary for said employment - but it
is what you demonstrate that gets and keeps you in a job.

Lastly - this area is busy because it a help newsgroup discussing Windows XP
Security and Administration. Lots of people asking questions about this
area and lots of people assisting.

What is "this" 1-year program? We can't see the rest of what's on your
screen :)

Lets see - you MAY be able to get the following (based on their
information)

A+ and Security+
MCP (that means you passed ONE certification test)
You may know your way around MS Office and Lotus Notes.

12 Months, 1200 actual hours

Looks like this would be training for a high school level kid to work as
an apprentice. Maybe $15/hr as a grunt.
 
lol, I appreciate the honesty.
I think I might go into CAD, I just hope I don't get bored with it.

Lotus Notes?
Eeep..

Although - it does sound like a lot of the "student worker" positions we
interview for on some of my locations.
$8-$15/hour max for those positions.
