I am excited to share that I have successfully earned the CompTIA SecAI+ Certification (CY0-001) with a score of 868, well above the passing score of 600.
This achievement is the result of 2-3 months of focused preparation, learning, and hands-on practice in the areas of Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity.
Through this journey, I gained valuable knowledge in:

• AI-powered threat detection and security operations
• Securing AI and machine learning systems
• Risk assessment and incident response
• Security analytics and threat intelligence
• Governance, compliance, and ethical AI practices

A heartfelt thank you to my colleagues, mentors, and everyone who supported and encouraged me throughout this learning journey.
I'm excited to apply these skills in real-world environments and continue growing at the intersection of AI and Cybersecurity.

Just a heads up! I heard from the Marketing team that AutoOps+ vouchers will go out Monday morning, 08/10 in the morning! Be sure to check your spam and blocking filters, and the email account you signed up for the TTT series with (yes it is an issue )! Good luck on the exam!

I definitely teach cross-platform. AWS is my favorite, but I think comparing to Azure and GCP provides useful insights on what the cloud really is and how to build infrastructure in the cloud.

Hey everyone, love this question!

As instructors, we're always walking that line between teaching solid vendor-neutral fundamentals and giving students practical insights into the actual proprietary stacks they’ll run into at work.

For me, building out my portfolio has never been about collecting badges just to have them—it’s really been about layering vendor-neutral foundations, multi-cloud depth, and eventually strategic leadership.

What I’m Holding Right Now​

My portfolio is pretty heavy on security and cloud at the moment:

• CompTIA (The Anchor): I hold SecurityX, SecAI+, and A+. CompTIA has always been my baseline for vendor-neutral concepts. SecAI+ in particular has been awesome recently for tackling AI threats and workflow security, while SecurityX keeps my engineering and architecture skills grounded.
• Google Cloud: Associated Cloud Engineer (ACE), Workspace Administrator, GenAI Leader, and Cloud Digital Leader.
• AWS: Certified Cloud Practitioner and Solutions Architect – Associate looking to pick up the AI Practitioner if time permits me later in the year

How I Pick What's Next​

A lot of it comes down to market reality and classroom value. Almost none of my clients or students work in a single-vendor vacuum anymore. Holding both AWS and GCP certs lets me bring real-world multi-cloud context into the classroom. When we cover a vendor-neutral concept in CompTIA, I can immediately pull up examples of how AWS IAM vs. GCP IAM handles it in practice. Also looking forward to having some microsoft cloud environment as it comes 2nd after AWS if you ask many - opinions vary.

My Current Roadmap​

I like to tackle things in clear phases:

1. Leveling Up the Cloud Tier: My immediate goal is to hit the Professional level for both cloud providers—targeting the AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional and GCP’s Professional Cloud Architect- have the vouchers for these and hope to take out time to trash them out.
2. The Governance & Strategy Layer: Once those are locked in, I'm heading toward PMP and CISSP( this should be next year) - That way, I have the technical implementation side fully covered, backed up by solid project management and high-level security governance.

Curious if others here teach multi-cloud as well, or if you guys mostly stick to one main ecosystem in your day-to-day work? Looking forward to reading through the thread!
