Need to learn VBScript

Hi there, Experts!

Wondering if anyone can help with this one.  I was recently told that in order to qualify for an upcoming potential job, I need to learn VBScript.
I have a helpdesk background with absolutely NO PROGRAMMING experience. I learn better in a classroom setting, but I don't see any classes online offered.
I've looked on Amazon for books on the subject, but the books all have mixed reviews.
Do you have any suggestions on any books?

Is it necessary to learn another programming language in order understand VBSCRIPT?

Should I learn VBNET too?  I was specifically told to learn VBSCRIPT.

If you were me, what would you do?  I have until July to learn VBSCRIPT.

I'd love to hire a person to come and show me this stuff.  Is there a website where I could find someone who would do this?

Any suggestions you could offer are welcomed!

Thank you!

VBScript is similar in syntax to VB5.0/6.0

http://www.w3schools.com/vbscript/vbscript_examples.asp

This website has lots of examples and tutorials. Scripting is just a smaller program that does very basic tasks. Such as adding printers or mapping network shares. You can do more than this with scripts, but the most common use these days is login scripts.
