CompTIA A+ 1201 and 1202 passed

Congratulations, but did your certificate shows you pass as a trainer, or a certified trainer or is just shows you're A+ certified?

When you scheduled for your exam is there any specific exam for trainers or is the normal 1200 series A+ ? ?

It just shows that you're A+ certified. CompTIA does not have any distinction that shows someone is a trainer.

New Academy Administrator Seeking Guidance on Platform Access and Free Courses

E
I am the newly appointed administrator for the CompTIA Academy at our institution. I was recently added to the CIN and now have access to the https://platform.comptia.org portal.

I am writing to request your guidance on how to begin using the platform effectively. Specifically, I need help understanding the initial steps to:
  1. Create classes for my students.
  2. Add my students to these classes.
Furthermore, I am inquiring about the availability of free fundamental-level courses for my students. At our institution, we also have academies for partners like Cisco and AWS, which provide free course access for students to learn and earn certifications and badges. I would like to know if similar opportunities exist through the CompTIA Academy program to help my students get started on their CompTIA certification path.

Thank you for your time and assistance. I am eager to resolve this and begin delivering CompTIA courses to my students.

Have you EVER heard of or used the tac command?

Wajih
Honestly, I’ve never really used “tac”, even though I know it exists — probably because I’m not a big fan of “cat” in the first place (sorry, cat lovers).
Instead, I’m more of a “less” person. Why? Because it lets me search, scroll forward, AND go back — basically, it’s like having superpowers in the terminal.
And the best part? “less” sneaks in a bunch of vi-like tricks. So if you’re already comfortable with vi (or vim for the cool kids), you’ll probably join me in the Team Less fan club.

Ditto here, and I'll write that exam soon.
On a related note, I wish the A+ exam came with letter grades instead of scaled scores…

That way, we could all look forward to conversations like:

Person 1: I just passed A+!
Person 2: Awesome! Which test did you take?
Person 1: A+.
Person 2: Yeah, I got that. Congrats! But which exam?
Person 1: The A+ exam.
Person 2: Okay, so you aced the A+?
Person 1: No, I got a B+ on the A+.
Person 2: Wait… so you didn’t get an A+ on A+?
Person 1: Right.
Person 2: So what did you get?
Person 1: A B+.
Person 2: On the A+.
Person 1: Exactly.
Person 2: That feels… mathematically illegal.
Person 1: Tell me about it. I was hoping for an A, at least.
Person 2: On A+?
Person 1: No, just an A. Not an A+.
Person 2: But you took A+.
Person 1: Yes, and got a B+.
Person 2: But not an A+?
Person 1: That would’ve been ideal. But I’ll take a B+ on A+.
Person 2: So you passed.
Person 1: With a B+.
Person 2: On the A+?
Person 1: Yes!
Person 2: Okay, now I’m confused. Did you get an A+ in A+ or a B+ in A+ or an A in B+ or—
Person 1: I didn’t take B+! That’s not even a thing!
Person 2: So what’s the next cert?
Person 1: Thinking of going for Network+.
Person 2: Let me guess—you want an A on Network+?
Person 1: No, I want an A+ on Network+.
Person 2: But you already got a B+ on A+!
Person 1: Exactly.
Person 2: …I need a drink.

There's definitely no shortage of text tools on Linux. Tools like awk, sed, cut, paste, nl, etc. are lumped into next Thursday's TTT on the shell because they are often used alongside redirection, and they’re easier to introduce a bit later in the course, once students have some shell basics under their belt :)

Although not on Linux+, you can also install the bat command (e.g., dnf install bat), which is a nice alternative to cat/tac and more.
