Linux+ V8 TTT Series by Jasson, I enjoyed it.

Wow, @jasoneckert! You truly make it all look easy Sir. Thank you so much for the great sessions; I've just gone through them again. You took what is normally a dry subject and made it engaging and so simple to understand, which is invaluable for explaining to our learners.

Your seamless delivery speaks volumes about the immense preparation, practice, and passion you invest. As fellow instructors , we recognise and deeply value the effort that goes into making complex topics appear effortless. We're incredibly lucky to have you in our community; your deep mastery of Linux combined with your honed teaching skills shone through in every session.(y)(y)(y)(y)

Single Sign On For Labsim.

Ahh, the age old problem with authentication in education - students/parents who lose their passwords.

Are you talking about the new CompTIA platform? And why is the reset function creating a lot of unhappy students/parents?

I'm afraid in this scenario, there's not much of an easy way around it. Best I can offer is to impress upon the students and their parents that if they forget their password, they're going to experience delays. While it's commendable, I think, that you're trying to be as flexible as you can, putting the onus back on the student to be responsible enough, to me, is not unreasonable.

What does the school administration say to all this?

Linux+ V8 (New Version) eBOOK

Is Linux+ V8 (New Version) eBOOK available on CompTIA Store for purchase or it will be available as a Learn profile under compTIA portal?
I'm pretty sure there will be no eBook, as Linux v8 is moving on to CertMaster as well. I hear the instructor who taught TTT (@jasoneckert ) has a new book out, though...lol

CompTIA SecAI+ TTT?

@Stephen Schneiter will there be a SecAI TTT series? :)
Yes! The certification is scheduled to launch in February of 2026. So, we will offer the TTT series around that time. As always we will post it here in the community as soon as it is finalized. Be on the lookout in January for an update.

Along those lines, we will offer a Sneak Peek webinar in early December around the new certification. I think this will be a great webinar! I will post the announcement in the next couple of weeks. I am just locking in the date with the presenters!

On-demand

From what I see, the PPT slides aren't actually shared - just the links to the ON24 sessions you must register for (which include downloadable PPTs) alongside the labs I encourage others to freely use/share (and a Rocky Linux version of the Fedora setup that still lists Fedora throughout ;-).

Whether you can reuse/share the PPTs from each ON24 session you attended, well that's more a question for Stephen :)
ROFL...fixed the Fedora to Rocky Linux typos lol

@jasoneckert The files were in my local git init push. I went ahead and deleted the folder because even me, I don't want anyone that can't login to CIN to access. Plus, I can't make it a private repo since the fork is public. I will just make a separate one that is private. This way, there is no confusion (I mean if someone was "really" that determined they could share the docs). I deleted the folder so it's not "easy" to get to.

Single Sign On For Labsim.

I understand the reason for moving to the Single Sign On for Labsim, but doing that has caused a lot of issues for my students. Prior to this month, I was able to send my students temporary passwords if they forgot their passwords. With the new system now in place I no longer have the ability to do that. Because most of my students only have school email accounts(K12), the password reset procedure is creating a lot of unhappy students and parents. I already reached out to our corporate IT to see if they could whitelist CompTIA, but it seems to be a long and daunting process. I have also tried getting my students to move over to a personal email, but that still has its oen issues. Are there any suggestions as how to proceed with the issue? Are there any other instructors having the same issue?
