Looking to order training but can't get a hold of anyone

Has anyone had trouble getting a hold of their account rep to purchase training? I have been trying since the 13th and customer service say I can only put in a ticket and wait. I did that and I still do not have any contact with the business/academic partner team.

Does anyone know a work around?

Thanks!

How might AI benefit you or your students in CertMaster?

I'm a UX Designer at CompTIA. I'm hoping to hear from instructors. What is your AI wish list for the CertMaster platform and courses?
  1. How would you hope to be able to use it? In other words, what job would you hire AI to do for you in CertMaster? And why?
  2. What job would your students hire AI to do for them in CertMaster? And why?
  3. How have you already used AI to help you teach?
  4. How are your students using AI currently to help them learn?
  5. What, if any, negative effects of AI are you currently seeing, either for instructors or students?
I'm excited about the potential of AI in enhancing the CertMaster platform. Here are my thoughts:

1. AI Role in CertMaster: AI being used for personalized learning paths. By analyzing student performance and preferences, AI could tailor course materials, suggest relevant resources, and provide adaptive quizzes to reinforce learning, which would enhance engagement and retention.

2. Students' AI Needs: I believe students would benefit from AI-driven tutoring. For instance, a virtual assistant could help answer questions in real-time or provide instant feedback on practice tests, making learning more efficient and accessible.

3. Using AI in Teaching: I've utilized AI tools for content generation and to analyze user experience data, helping me refine course materials and improve overall design and functionality.

4. Student Usage of AI: Many of my students are leveraging AI chatbots for study assistance, especially for clarifying complex topics or accessing additional practice questions outside class hours.

5. Negative Effects of AI: I’ve noticed some concerns, such as over-reliance on AI tools, which can lead to reduced critical thinking skills. There’s also the challenge of ensuring that students don’t use AI inappropriately during assessments.

I’m excited to see how we can enhance the CertMaster experience with AI!

Data certification path is incomplete...

Hello everyone! I don't know if this is the right channel to report this, but here goes anyway: through its blog, CompTIA published an interesting article about data-focused certifications: Data+, DataSys+ and DataX. The problem is that the section dedicated to publicizing the certification paths does not include the other certifications besides CompTIA Data+. It would be better to take a look... &;-D

Blog post link: https://www.comptia.org/blog/enhanc...s-with-the-comptia-data-pathway-certification
Link to the path disclosure: https://www.comptia.org/certifications/which-certification
Thanks for letting us know, Ednei. I think with all the changes, new certs, and various exam revisions at CompTIA, updating all the info is still lagging behind. I am sure the folks at CompTIA are on it and things will get updated soon.

RTFM Red Team Field Manual PDF

Isn't that a copyright infringement to post a PDF of someone else's content? They sell that on Amazon.
Thanks so much @Gregory Childers, you’re absolutely right—I shouldn’t have posted the RTFM PDF since it’s copyrighted. I’ll take it down and encourage everyone to purchase it through official channels like Amazon. Thanks for the heads-up!

Data certification path is incomplete...

Yes, another thing I found kind of baffling is that they don't provide information for CEU's that allows to renew Server+, that cert is not listed anywhere on the recommended external courses or certs to get CEU's.
Server+ is a good for life certification that never has to be renewed and doesn't need CEUs.

How Microsoft is Powering AI with Three Mile Island

I foresee more old operating facilities coming back online/remaining online to help satisfy the AI demand. Thank you Precious for responding.
Welcome @Mark Anthony Germanos, absolutely, It's fascinating to think about how AI is driving the resurgence of nuclear energy. Excited to see where this synergy takes both industries!

How Microsoft is Powering AI with Three Mile Island

It's interesting to see Three Mile Island making a comeback with the help of Microsoft's need for power to fuel its AI operations. With the increasing demand for energy, especially for technologies like AI, it's not surprising that nuclear energy is being reconsidered as a reliable source. It'll be worth watching how this partnership impacts both the energy and tech industries moving forward!
