It is a while off, but I will be teaching the Security+ class again this coming January. Previously I used the Test Out course materials and lab. Is that still going to be available for the coming year or will it be migrated to Cert Master? If so will I need to also go through the TTT Cert Master version to be able to navigate teaching the course materials? Thank You for any information on how I should prepare.

testout Material has an EOL and is migrated..

Hi Eddy,

I’m in the same situation—I also completed the A+ TTT but haven’t received my voucher yet. It seems we might both be waiting on the same process. I think Michael’s advice is good; the best step would be to reach out to Stephen Schneiter directly and confirm with the email used for CIN and the TTT.

Hopefully, this gets sorted out for both of us soon.

Michael Schmitz · Sep 30, 2025

Best is, to send him a private Message. What Email did you use for CIN, and the TTT?

mohammed khati · Sep 30, 2025

Haha nope, CompTIA didn’t suddenly get bought by Microsoft.
What you’re seeing is just because CompTIA uses Microsoft’s cloud (Azure/Entra ID) for their Single Sign-On. That’s why the cert shows Microsoft Corp in the details. So nothing to worry about.

Thanks Rick!
Yes, I really enjoyed, it was very detailed and helpful. I totally understand how work can get in the way sometimes. Hopefully, you’ll get a chance to finish the rest soon.

Hi gang, I am updating a graphic for lesson 3 of Security+, specifically where we discuss certificate signing requests. The new comptia.org certificate from DigiCert shows:

CN = sso.comptia.org
O = Microsoft Corporation
L = Redmond
ST = Washington
C = US

Did CompTIA become part of Microsoft?

AFAIK this still stands.

Start or advance your IT career with a CompTIA certification. Explore certifications, training, and exam resources to get certified.

Organisation Google Trust Services

You should then better explain the next step:
Single Domain Certs and Checking Information ...

and you could have used

crt.sh | Certificate Search

Free CT Log Certificate Search Tool from Sectigo (formerly Comodo CA)

crt.sh

?q=sso.comptia.org

to see all previous Certs assgined to this Domain. (pretty long list)
Cool Tool on the Website.

Hint: I would now change the Subject Line with another Text. This is confusing.
Didn`t you think you would have heard about this in CIN before, it that where true?
We do not want to spread false Rumors...

That is likely CompTIA's certificate for their Microsoft EntraID single sign-on (SSO) and associated domain/tenant in Azure.
No, CompTIA is not part of Microsoft (to my knowledge).

I do have the following CompTIA Certs: A+, NET+, SEC+, CYSA+ and I do teach all these courses at least 3 times a year. I am currently pursing the Security X and Pentest + at this moment.

Hello CINers,

What is the process to contact your college's respective CompTIA rep? I am covering a last minute class at my college.
Thanks in Advance

Eddy Harden · Sep 29, 2025

To whom it may concern,

I made a post about changing jobs, and I hoped that @Stephen Schneiter had gotten my response to that post. I have noticed people on here claiming that they had received them. I am hoping that because I completed both A+ TTT, I did not miss out on the vouchers due to my job change.

I would appreciate any advice or help on this.

Thanks

Hello Everyone,
I'm so happy to tell everyone that I just finished all the Core 2 training videos of the A+ Exam preparation,
Thanks to CompTIA for this great privilege and opportunity, Who else is currently on Core 2 ?
Am so happy right now to have completed this part and moving closer to the A+ Exam.

I hope you enjoyed them! I caught a lot of it, myself. (work demands kept me from doing the entire series...)

Just Passed the Network+ N10-009 Exam this morning , only noticed yesterday that the our voucher codes for this one are Valid through September 30, 2025.

If you haven't taken it yet, you better hurry

The codes generally last for about six months after issue - I call it motivation not to sit around and wait.
