Has Anyone used Cisco's Introduction to Networks Course to teach Networking concepts in prep for the Network + exam?

Does anyone use Cisco's Introduction to Networks course to teach networking concepts in prep for the Network + certification exam? I have some seniors that want to do extra studying for the Network + exam while the class is learning through the Cisco course. I have given them each a copy of the Official Comptia Network + student guide for N10-008 and we are working on a schedule to keep them accountable to each other. They would like to do the Cisco I can't find a mapping of the Cisco course to the Network + exam objectives.

Comment Option in normal Exams? Do you miss it?

I took the Beta of Cysa+ last week, and there was on Option to comment on Questions.
I took A+ Core2 also, but there is no Option for Comments. That is sad, because there were two or three Questions, that would deserve a Comment.
One had to possible correct Answers, but did ask for only 1.
One had a Typo in the Text, somewhere...
There is then no way to report Errors back to CompTIA.


So i wonder, why Comptia does not allow (like others): Mark for Comment afterwards or directly in the Exam, but only in Beta..

What is your Opinion here?

Anyone out there experiencing the same issue??. Who can i speak to to sort this out?

Confused on CertMaster Learning Solution Offerings for 1100 series

Hello -

So I'm confused, and so are my superiors as to which product is what, especially regarding the new 1100 A+ series and which thing we should purchase for students. In the past, I think we have gotten CertMaster Practice (maybe?). I attached a screenshot. Students and I had access to the eBook, videos, practice lessons, and practice assessment. The labs were purchased separately from CompTIA but accessed through Skillable via comptialabs.learnondemand.net. (We would do the combined 1001 and 1002.)

Now there is an Integrated Product Learn + Labs. What does CertMaster Learn provide that Practice doesn't? I'm so confused. From how I'm reading it, the Authorized partner prices are the same for CertMaster Learn ILT and CertMaster Practice which confuses me even more.

Please help a poor confused instructor be able to tell their superior which product to buy in the cheapest way. Our program trains the unemployed using state funding, I wish we could go with the most and the best, but we need to go with the least expensive solution. At a minimum, we need labs, eBook, practice lessons, and practice assessments.

CySA CSO-003 - coming up next 2023?

I just received a survey to fill in reg. what the next CySA+ shall be more focus on.
Time flies since the last launch of the exceptional CS0-002. All my students loved it and felt that the exam was much fairer and more balanced than the 001 exam.
Looking forward to see the same in the 003!

Usefulness of the N10-007 All-In-One book

Greetings All,

I currently have a physical copy of the All In One CompTIA Network+ N10-007 book and wanted to get insight on it's usefulness although this version of the exam has retired. I'm a little "old school" so I'm accustomed to having a physical book and buying a new updated version is a little out of reach at the moment. Any advice, recommendations, etc is absolutely welcomed.

Thanks!

  • Question
A+ Classroom Length

From your experience what is a good timeframe/schedule to teach the A+ Core 1 & 2 Objectives. Do you separate 1 & 2 into different classes? How long do you give for each? 4 weeks? How many hours per day?

We will soon be teaching these courses at a Junior college and want to also build them into credit courses where they would get an Associates degree and leave with an A+ cert if desired. I visualize Core 1 being a 3 credit course and 2 being another. I think the traditional 16 weeks of most college courses is too long and students are likely to forget something from almost 4 months prior. What types of schedules do you use?

Does anyone currently do something like this? Any insight is most appreciated.

Thanks,

j

It's been a month now after talking to Stephen.?

So for those who send an email and address them about the discount voucher.

Also, there is no definitive response regarding the legality of obtaining the future
While I received a voucher of previous TTT Pentest+,CASP+,Data+.
