@videsh31 Kindly note that vouchers cant be shared- they are name tied and have prerequisites which are clear( eg. mentoring or part of a training provider, participate in the live or on demand TTT sessions intended to help trainers deliver compTIA training or for CE etc.)

Vouchers normally have about 1yr duration so even if someone cant use it this year- next year upto June2026 is still an available timeline.

Thanks and awesome day ahead

CompTIA A+ 220-1201 (Core 1) and 220-1202 (Core 2) Exam Prep

From my experience, the TTT series is really useful, but it depends on your goal

If you’re preparing to take the A+ exam: TTT alone is not enough. You’ll definitely need extra resources like practice exams, CertMaster or additional resources to make sure you cover everything and get used to the exam style.

If your goal is to teach or train students: then the TTT series can actually be enough as a foundation, since it gives you the structure to explain concepts, but you should still explore extra materials to give your students richer examples.

Congrats! And yep, I've also got a couple of vouchers that need to be used before the end of the year. There are NOT enough hours in the day, lol.

I know that's right. I figure I have to find some quantum scientist out there that can add about 6-8 hours more to a day, just so I can get all my stuff done. Lately, I have to alternate my gym days with my cert study days. It's kinda a good system, but then something else jumps in to derail the training plan.

Hi everyone,

Please share your experience for A+ Core1 and Core2 preparation.
Do you think attending TTT series alone is enough?
What materials/sites you used for prep?
How long you took to prepare?
Any specific tips?

Regards

When you ask about "A+ Core1 and Core2 preparation.", are you asking about preparation so that you can take the exam, or so that you can teach it?

Remember that the TTT was never designed to replace full instruction for a candidate who is wanting to take the exam for the first time. TTT was designed to give instructors materials, techniques, and ideas for delivering the content in their own learning environments. While our TTT instructors do a great job, there is the expectation that if you are in the TTT, you already have a good amount, if not all the skills you need to not only take, but teach the material.

Hello CINers

- Spent about a week to prepare and write both exams after realizing I had quite some exams to trash out before the 2025 is gone.

- Used the CertMaster Perform study materials, slides to prepare

- Wrote both exams about 7 days apart

- Each exam starts with about 5 performance time-challenge questions(spent about 10mins each) and a lot of other tricky then moved on to much easier multi-choice questions.

Thanks

Linux+ v8 guide from Sybex: skips a whole objective

In the past, I've been the technical editor for all of the Linux- and UNIX-related titles at Wiley (at the request of other authors like Richard Blum and Christine Bresnahan since other Linux authors often provide for the most valuable technical reviews).

However, this year I haven't heard a peep that way, so I don't know what is happening at Wiley - but it's possible that cost-saving shortcuts are taking place (e.g., less content editing, consolidating authors).

What I can say is that if I were tech editing the the new title, I would have noted the absence of Objective 4.5, and recommended content for inclusion at certain places :)
