  • Question
Free/opensource A+ or A+ like textbooks or materials

All,
I am teaching CYBER JROTC Year 1 curriculum focused on the A+. The curriculum just consists of PPT and no other associated material. Would anyone know of a free or opensource book or that would be easily printable i could get ahold of. I want to provide another form of learning for my cadets without breaking the bank. Thanks.

CIN The Pulse: Separating the signal from the noise: The current state of the IT (and data) workplace

Students preparing to enter the workforce are working hard – they're studying for and earning CompTIA certifications. They’ve seen the signal you have sent as an instructor: There are great IT careers available. But, given all of the “noise” we’re hearing lately about the IT jobs market , students are naturally wondering if there really will be a job available for them once they’ve finished. Research from CompTIA and many other credible sources worldwide demonstrate that we’re experiencing a worker shortage. Popular media presents a picture that tech jobs are on the decline. So, how can we help students separate the signal from the noise when it comes to the current – and future – IT job market?

Join Dr. James Stanger, Chief Technology Evangelist for CompTIA, as he provides you with some solutions. He’ll present research about current workforce trends, as well as report what he’s been hearing from hiring managers in the U.S. and worldwide. James will discuss:

  • Data-driven resources that provide evergreen information about hiring and employment trends
  • The state of the workplace, including what “remote work” means these days
  • Skills that make students a “good risk,” from the perspective of the hiring manager
  • Available jobs and careers beyond the typical “tech sector” perspective
What: CIN The Pulse: Separating the signal from the noise: The current state of the IT (and data) workplace
When: Thursday March 30, 2023 10:00 am CST
Who: Dr. James Stanger, Chief Technology Evangelist, CompTIA

  • Question
Docker container training

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know of any step-by-step labs or website training that teaches
what needs to be done to log into, start, and use a Docker container on a Linux
system?

It is easy to find explanations of how Docker works but so far I'm unable to
get any real training on doing it start to finish.

Thank you,
Mike

Passed Pentest+ this afternoon

It was a good exam, and very straightforward. The simulations were excellent.
I liked it more than CySA+ and CASP+ (although CASP+ was a lot of fun).

It definitely helps to do it right after teaching an ethical hacking course while the tools, process, and concepts are fresh in your mind. All I did was use the certification objectives as a knockdown list (Googling the odd thing I didn't recall).

But most importantly, I'm happy to say that I've now used every single voucher I got from the TTT sessions these past few years (and passed each exam too!). In my opinion, this is the biggest benefit for CIN members - I don't think I would have written as many of these exams otherwise, and it's important that our students see us write them - because if we write them, they will write them.

Instructor openings in DC/Alexandria area

We are looking for *experienced* Comptia instructors local for in person training local to the DC/Alexandria area. Security+ / Casp+ /Cloud+ / CCNA and EC Council most in demand. If you are available for contract work please reach out to me. [email protected]

Need help with Ukrainian student

I have a student who is preparing for her A+ exams but she is not making much progress even after months of study. She is Ukrainian who came to the US and while she speaks English, it is not without difficulty. She is an intelligent and diligent student, but the language barrier has stymied her progress.
Does anyone have any suggestions or tools, techniques, applications, etc. that can help? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

CompTIA A+ Class Materials (what to use?)

We will soon begin teaching A+ here at my college and offering it as credit courses and I am wondering what materials other A+ instructor use in class. Do you use a 3rd party? I would like to use the official Learn & Labs because I believe if your going to pass a certification exam the best place to learn the material is from the people making the exam.

If you do use the CompTIA materials, what do you include? Both Learn & Labs. Do you have students purchase the CertMaster Practice also? Do you find the CompTIA supplied slides sufficient?

If a 3rd party, who do you use?

Thank you in advance for any feedback/advice,
