CIN TTT Series: CompTIA Tech+ FC0-U71

It's an amazing journey especially developing a Network Intrusion Detection System (NIDS) program... Just interested to know, what language did you use, is it paid or free? How can we access it?

Yes! It is that time again! A+ is coming up for renewal. Join the CompTIA Instructor Network and special guest Lynn Warne as she takes a Sneak Peek into the changes with the new exam objectives. We will discuss how to cover the content with students and suggest various labs to let students gain hands-on experience as they prepare for certification.

Dear CompTIA CIN,

Thank you for the Train The Trainer PT0-003 presentations. I have participated in all 4 On-demand sessions, but I've noticed an issue with the Session 1 certificate. Unlike the certificates for Sessions 2-4, which display my name correctly, the Session 1 certificate appears incomplete.

Due to the TTT schedule overlapping with Lunar New Year celebrations, I could only attend the first 4 sessions of PT0-003 TTT as On-demand. I will be able to participate in Session 5 and onwards live.

Regarding the certificates, I have two concerns:

1. Is this incomplete certificate due to watching the session On-demand rather than live?
2. Will this affect the validity of my CompTIA CEU Credits?

Your clarification on these matters would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance.

Best regards,
Vinh Ng

Without trying to be boorish about it, the job listing mentions only "Competitive pay based on experience, certifications, and class size.".

It would be absolutely conductive to gaining responses if you post some indication of bandwidth in this pay.

Interesting to see that ChannelCon remains with the not-for-profit org, GTIA.

Well, for the last few ChannelCon/Partner Summits that I attended, the ratio was about 75/25 in terms of attendees. While I know CompTIA tried to make a good, blended event, I always felt like the red-headed stepchild when I happened into the ChannelCon areas (except going into the dealer/vendor room, where everyone was just oh, so friendly).

I hope we do get a Partner Summit, though.

ChannelCon has reappeared on the GTIA event list, and is still listed as occurring in Nashville at the Gaylord Opryland. Scroll to the bottom here:

had any vouchers been received

Vouchers for Cloud+ were sent out on, or about December 18, at least according to this post/thread.

If you didn't get yours, you will want to connect with @Stephen Schneiter.

One of the biggest issues that come up with voucher fulfillment using the same email for CIN, On24, and CompTIA. Different e-mail addresses make it difficult to verify that you're a CIN member against the On24 attendance records. Remember, you also have to be affiliated in some way with a CompTIA Partner, doing instruction, that sort of thing.

Did you collect your certificates for each session? Doing so helps ensure that you, in fact, did watch all the sessions.

I guess I'm an old fart. God, I love the .pdfs...

Hi @Ben DiMolfetta, I spoke with the product team, and they currently do not have any lab solution documents for DataX. I was told there are not any plans right now to add them; however, if instructors want this, it could be added to the development schedule.

So, what is the group's take here? Is DeepSek completely new or was is trained by using some other model (ChatGPT) as is suggested in popular press?

My vote is 'unapologetically stolen'.

And if this is to be believed - TinyZero..for $30 and a few hours time...sound like BlackFedoraAI could be on the horizon.

(if I can find a few hours time)

Hi! I attended the Cloud+ and Tech+ series last year but haven't received my vouchers. Where they sent already?

Hello @Fonseca, I can take a look into this for you. There are several reasons you may not have received a voucher. I will DM you in I have any questions.

I agree, thanks everyone for sharing your thoughts! Students who expressed a preference wanted to use a PDF or printed book, not the ebook.

The "online only" ebooks means we can no longer buy CompTIA materials to use in classrooms that are not internet connected. I will miss having the choice of using CompTIA materials when teaching security in secure classrooms!

Paper books and PDFs can be used anywhere in the world. Redundant copies can provide fault tolerance. Paper books and PDFs are free of the connectivity, authentication, authorization, and service availability risks associated with ebook access.

The current ebook (PT0-003) lacks features that printed books and PDFs have provided for years. Either a printed book or a PDF would be more useful for learning or teaching.


On the quiz, 0 points for me unless 'vynil' counts!

Good Day Everyone!

Is there a master solution set for the Live Labs for the DataX class? For example, a ZIP file that contains working examples of all of the Jupyter Notebooks?

Any other insights are appreciated!

Thank you,
Ben
