AI Fundamentals Final Assessment Scheduling

Hello CIN Community,

I recently enrolled in a CompTIA CompCert course through the CompTIA Instructor Network (CIN) after attending the AI Fundamentals Webinar.

During the enrollment process, I was asked to select an institution for the CompCert exam. However, my university was not listed among the available institutions, so I selected another institution that may not currently be operational or may not be able to schedule the exam. I have completed the course waiting for my exam to be scheduled in the assessment tab. I have added a screenshot of exam assessment.

I would appreciate advice from anyone who has experienced a similar situation:

  • What options are available if the selected institution cannot schedule the CompCert exam?
  • Can a CIN member select a different active/operational institution, including one located outside their country, to facilitate or schedule the exam?
  • If this is allowed, which institution should I select?
I would be grateful for any guidance or experience you can share.
Thank you!

same here...
I am in the same boat. I am not sure what happened and why there has been no response. Multiple emails, direct message on here and the Q & A for the last sneak peek I got a response that it would be looked into. That was the last I heard anything. For those saying be patient and explaining the process, that’s exactly why we are posting here to try and get some clarity. We are coming up on 2 months since it was posted that they were sent and there have been a large number of other users stating they never received theirs either. I too have all of the proof of attendance from every session all done on the day of the sessions themselves.

I did email him directly and never heard back that's why I asked the question here.

Passed CompTIA CySA+

I am excited to share that I've earned the CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-004) certification!

Special thanks to @Nick Pierce, the CompTIA CySA+ (CS0-004) instructor, for the excellent training, and to @Stephen Schneiter for the support throughout the journey.

Looking forward to the new certifications.
Congratulations

Any target date for the TTT for Security+ v8?

Hi Everyone, I am in the process of working on a schedule now. My plan would be to have the TTT series begin mid-October. However, that all hangs upon the availability of the course content and the instructor having time to prepare for the sessions.

Keep checking back here as I will post the registration as soon as the date is finalized.
This is a big one for my GovTech students. I hope they added some hands-on practical this time around. If I have one more student tell me about a brain dump I'm going to crash out. :eek:
