VIRTUAL TRAINER /ON LINE TRAINER

I am a virtual Trainer who trains across borders I recently completed the train the trainer Webinar as they did promise vouchers which are due A+ 1201 and 1202. I bought my own vouchers and have trained the new A+. I have the network+N1-009 which I have had great success in the Class 100% pass rate. I have the Cloud+ver 4 I have cysa + I have Project+ as well AND also CTT+. I Exam prep guides I give to delegates who do my sessions. This is written a prep around the objectives and getting good passes. I wrote my first A+ in 1998. I am the subject matter expert for Africa. I have a two high speed internet lines for on line training. I work from Johannesburg South Africa where my Virtual Training runs. I have TWO FREE DAYS WHICH I would like to fill. MY rates are very reasonable. My sessions can be recorded if need be.

Certmaster Learn or Certmaster Perform?

I'm not sure I'd use Teams for that - probably would defer to Zoom, since it's more platform agnostic than other conference platforms. Plus, the feature set is a mite bit more developed than Meet or Teams. Google Meet is pretty streamlined. MSFT Teams is just very bloaty - shouldn't take near 1GB RAM to run a meeting.

Regarding Tech+ class

I haven't taught Tech+ since it changed over from ITF+, but the principles are basically the same. The idea is to create an exam that bridges the gap between a computer power user and an entry level IT specialist. The skills are basic - in fact, I took the exam back in 2021, cold turkey, just to see. What I experienced was many times when I was over-engineering or over-thinking a question, having been in the field for a few years. :)

It's a good course though and one of the first ones to be adopted into the CertMaster Perform platform.

Regarding New CompTIA courses

???
Courses Available:
- check the Comptia Website or the Store.
Also you can review old TTT in the On24 Sessions.

Courses in Planning:
You only see the Exam Objectives

Hope that helps to answer your Question.

Certmaster Learn or Certmaster Perform?

Hey Tony, i might need more details, but if it's online, I'd suggest Teams (because it's been available for quite a while and has a lot of features you will enjoy, including AI summaries and all),
If you are looking at simplicity, I'd suggest google meet (it runs on the browser easily and most of ur users can access easily - also comes with AI features and all)

Regarding Security+ Labs

I taught boot camps for 20+ years. With the amount of lectures, labs, practice quizzes, and exams, I couldn't possibly fit all the content into a 40-hour boot camp. So, I skipped all the labs and practice quizzes/exams on focused on the lecture and demonstrations. My goal was to ensure the learners understood the theory of how things worked, and gave demonstrations on how to do them. I assigned the labs and quizzes/exams as outside homework.

This is why I absolutely detest pre-recorded videos like Udemy or Professor Messer. The students gain nothing useful by mindlessly watching 30 hours of video where the trainer regurgitates facts. They get no comprehensive understanding of the theory, nor hands-on activities.
Thanks for sharing that

Regarding Security+ Labs

imsrj.cse,

So I imagine you are running the course so that students work through the reading and practice on their own time and your ILT meetings are focused on the labs.

In that learning environment I'd suggest taking some time at the start of the day and after lunch to introduce topics covered in the labs. I call this 'Connecting the dots'. This is critically important to both learning the technology and passing the exam.

If I might ask how do you envision working through labs with students? Will you 'drive'; leading students through the lab that you display from your station? I find that helpful at the start of a cohort as many of my adult learners are let's say 'timid' in an online lab environment. OK. They're afraid. If I walk through a lab at the start I require that learners help direct me. After the first several commands I'll ask 'what do I do next?' or 'how do I get to the next step?'. This help me identify who won't have a problem with the labs. I then go over the roster and try to identify who I didn't hear from so I can draw them out by calling on them later.

I try to have a learner or a small team of learners drive in later labs. I try not to pick just one person. I'll ask two or three learners to lead a walk through. Multiple learners working together seems to move faster and avoids the uncomfortable situation were one person might get stuck.

I'd also suggest having a brief lab synopsis ready to deliver. Some of the labs (vulnerability assessment and packet capture/analysis) cover key concepts and are important to connecting those dots.

I'd also suggest assigning a few labs as homework to be completed outside of ILT and then go over important points or the questions that are asked after the labs completed.
Thanks
