I think there are approved training centers that prepare candidates for the CompTIA A+ exam. You may find a list on their website. While it’s a great idea to take this exam, I would also suggest you look into a formal training course at a career school to boost your employability. Check out the computer technician training at Career Step. I think it will set you up nicely for the CompTIA A+ certification and a career in the field.
