Thanks Rick, that makes more sense. Although I believe you left out an addend in your equation. Here, let me rewrite it for you:
Objectives + Google - CompTIA Essentials = Study Guide
So glad you recommended that in an implicit way. It is back to Microsoft I go

Mitch, thank you for your speedy answer. If you have taught the class, did you teach it with the CompTIA curriculum? If so, what did you do for labs seeing that the curriculum has no embedded labs. Just asking out of curiosity. I must assume the AI-900 has no lab activities with it?I've taught AI-900; I have written the exam for AI-900.
According to this page (https://www.comptia.org/en-us/certifications/ai-essentials/) there is a class for it. According to this page (https://www.comptia.org/en-us/certifications/#ai) there is a certification for it.

@Tangobro If you can (sorry if this was mentioned) have them do journals (I give mine 3 or 4 questions to think more cybersecurity) and let them know to remember to not break anything regarding CIA. With the students attending the internship, can you have them do assignments? little "journals?" I do journals and always ask the question of "when you go to your site, do you see a card reading? do you use a card to get in? Is there a rule to not hold the door open for someone? What about if you know the person? (This one is fun because you can always let them know they are thinking smart BUT what about if the employee was fired, you let them in, and now they are disgruntled?"
I haven't taken Tech+ but if you can, create a group in Canva, they can make flashcards and have fun with it Canva is free for k-12 teachers and students. They do have eligibility guidelines here: https://www.canva.com/education/eligibility-guidelines/ but teaching college students, I go back to games, and fun. They love it, learn, and have a great time vs. sweating and crying in the corner because college is college and it's scary!!!
Hope this helped!!!! I think Tech+ is manageable, remember teachers and students get Microsoft 365 for free Microsoft 365 Student and Faculty Licenses but remember Microsoft offers free training, and they have the student hub for more information: Microsoft Learn Student Hub The one major thing I notice is students that come into college struggle using Office 365 because they use Outlook's 365 and don't download the suite which has all the bells and whistles so when they realize here is a fancy key vs. what Office 365 provides they learn and ask questions "When I open my Word, the bar for autosave is on" I'll ask them "Where is it going?" This is more Introduction to Computers but a lot of students sometimes forget the basics and what is all out there! YOU GOT THIS!!!!

Chiming in since we are talking about certifications, for Security+ at a 4 year college, I feel it should be a higher level class (I guess it depends what is all taught, etc.) but does anyone have the class they teach and what level are you teaching it in? We do 2 parts which is amazing but I need to find a way to get it into the students brains, YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE A MASTER WHEN YOU READ THE CONTENT DAY 1, it takes times. It's an intimidating class for those who are jumping into cybersecurity. What are ways you approach it and make it less intimidating for the students that (I was once this person) read the content and NEED to know it ALL? I've let them know I was you to understand the concept because you see it more than once. Obviously we teach content, not to pass the certification. They have extra time after for those who want to take the voucher to study more which is nice, but I'm trying to find different approaches and a less scary class Throw methods and thoughts at me! How do you break it down? Do you take out labs? have them do different activities? Hope I'm posting in the right forum and keep to keep it going!

I actually am still learning a lot of the CIN network, I love it! But I was posting a new forum vs. asking a question in one so I made some rookie mistakes, embarrassing...but everyone is amazing in the CIN community! Helpful, respectful and we all can't be tech gurus like Stephen (I didn't want to tag the wrong Stephen - I thought I found his profile...didn't need to embarrass myself more,
...and @Rick Butler haha. Everyday can't be perfect, if it is, give me the magical key
