Hello Everyone! We have been in the process of building out a webinar schedule for the rest of the 2026. Below is the outcome of the planning we have so far. We would like feedback from CIN as to what you think is missing? What topics would you like to see offered? Are there any proposed launches from the CompTIA Product Roadmap that you think should be covered? We will add to our webinar list based on feedback and interests.

@Bernard Garrett where are you located or what organization are you with and I can get you to the right contact.

Just my two cents, but with work experience, when I am preparing for CompTIA exam I focus on CertMaster Practice as my main tool and supplement CertMaster content for areas that cause issue. Also, remember that SecurityX is a culmination of the security path, so if you have Security+, CySA+ and PenTest+ or any combination, you will see similar types questions on the SecurityX exam. To me, that makes it easier, similar to Network+ before Security+.

I have heard from folks that the labs in CertMaster perform are pretty good. So, I think you should be in good shape using the tools. Too me, it is understanding how the exam questions are worded and the terminology, which is why I like CertMaster Practice. Again, just my two cents. Everyone prepares differently.

In this 2-hour hands-on session, CompTIA’s @James Stanger will walk you step-by-step through how to design, build, and test a practical AI agent. Think of the agent as a Q-branch, customized digital tech assistant.

By the end of this session, you will be able to:

Create a basic AI agent using free and pay-tier platforms
Plan your agent like a project— understand why, like painting a house, success is all in the preparation
Evaluate AI agent tools and platforms and decide which ones fit your needs
Map and document workflows during the planning before even considering building an agent
Apply industry best practices for building agents, including setting goals, organizing the information that your agent needs, setting boundaries, and the vital testing and security measures you should consider

Join CompTIA’s Dr. James Stanger to move beyond AI buzzwords and leave with a clear, practical roadmap for building an AI agent you, your students, and industry workers can use.

WHAT: CIN Instructor Toolbox
WHEN: Thursday April 23, 2026, 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM CT

An admin, Stephen, said in one of his posts that that the best approach anytime anyone needs a voucher or discount is to reach out to their Account Executive. How do you find the Account Executive for your university? The Account Executive for DeVry University is no longer with CompTIA. How do I find the new Account Executive for DeVry University? I called the CompTIA Customer Support and they told me to reach out to my university to find out who the Account Executive is. However, I'm the contact! So, I cannot reach out to myself. Please help!

I've just registered myself for the session. Looking forward to it.

I can speak only from my perspective but I had some previous work experience, some graduate degrees, along with certs in the security field both from CompTIA among others, including Sec+ and CySA+, and to pass the SecurityX (CAS-005) I just added the Certmaster Perform studies.

Hello
Could somebody please give me a URL, so that I can purchase the
latest A+ instructor kit?

Thank you

Bernard

Honestly, I didn't use any study materials to pass the exam for either of the two versions I passed.

I already had Security+, CySA+, and PenTest+. If you have those three, you're almost ready for it at that point.

I have not.

personally, I beilieve more is needed. The material assumes a fundamental knowledge of security concepts and domain knowledge.

Matthew Jennings · Mar 31, 2026

I've got 25 years IT experience and over 16 specializing in security, so I'm not coming into this completely ignorant. But in taking the unit quizzes and practice exam in CertMaster, the questions seem way different than the material I've been studying the last couple months. I'm also going through the TTT recordings now but that seems in line with the CM material.
Are the exercises relevant for the test? Also, is there a better alternative for learning what I need to pass the exam?
Thanks in advance!

Stephen,

Does CompTIA have Cyber/IT AG on their radar? Will they be developing training and/or a certification for those that are supporting SmartFarming? I know we have certs that will address some of the components that make up part of the new world of SmartFarming.

Have you seen the Modern Classroom Certified Instructor [MCCT] from Logical Operations? It is a good straight-forward review of instruction techniques. It is a fast and affordable instructional "credential".

I used to work for a subsidiary of Logical Operations/CertNexus and was one of the first people with the MCCT. Literally, you could study for a single day and pass it the same day. It's an online, unproctored exam that you can take over and over until you pass.

Hi Everyone! Just a reminder, as you recall from the series, we mentioned that there will be a two week grace period after the last live session for anyone who needed to catch up on missed sessions. That period ended this week and I have pulled the attendance records from ON24 and sent it to the Data team for processing. Based on previous offerings it will take a couple more weeks for the list to be finalized, vouchers ordered and distribution to begin. Thank you for your understanding and patience.

I will post an update in this thread as soon as I hear a date for the vouchers to go out.

Thank you. I was also wondering. I will look forward to your update.
