BrianFord, As I have full time day job, I was not able to participate in the "live" sessions (I teach night classes). Thank you for the information, the whole series was presented very well, your modified presentation material provided thoughts for my version.

Is Cloud+ certification easier then Server+? Preparing my exam now so can anyone share experience with that? Thank you for answer

Hey Community

Does anyone have a good list of questions to use in a classroom for a A+ 220-1101/1102 practice tests?
I do use the questions at the end of each chapter of the CertMaster Learn, but want to be able to printout and use to see how the students are learning.

Just wanted to say things for the Voucher I used the book what an out standing book as well. I passed it yesterday with a very good passmark

I know have that want to get CYSA and SECURITY+ 701

In Case you missed it:
i saw today, that CompTIA offers TestOut Trainings in the Store...
Even for Non CompTIA Courses:

Cisco CCNA
Mircosoft Server AZ-801 .

Did not see that one coming...

Hey fellow instructors,

I'm Security+ CE certified, which means that I'm submitting CEU to remain certified. I'm assuming this means I don't need to sit the 701 exam to teach this class, is that correct or am I mistaken?

Wow! Insane numbers!!! It appears to me that the underground (aka hackers) know something that the rest of us don't..
I'm just sayin'!

Question about timing. I know that the new 701 test will be available on November 7th and that the 601 exam will be retired on 7/31/24. Our current cybersecurity course uses the 601 book and the CertMaster Labs for Security+. I am trying to determine if we need to make the change to the 701 content for the spring semester or if the 601 book and 601 related CertMaster Labs for Security+ will continue to be available through early 2024?

When will the 701 related CertMaster Labs be available for students?

Just trying to determine if I'm going to be able to have my students use both the 601 book and Certmaster Labs for spring or if we need to move to the 701 book and Certmaster Labs for spring.

Thanks!

hello, did anyone receive the reminder email or link for Security+ SY0-701 for TestOUt TTT session 12?

Hi everyone.

I'm going to be submitting my video I'm doing over the weekend on Monday, and I see on the form in part A, that they ask for a CompTIA Member/Partner Number, which is a 6 digit number. I am not working for anyone right now, and I suspect that is for whomever your employer is. They would have a CompTIA member number? If I don't have one, does it mean I can't finish this process? If I need one, do you know if there's a way for me to quickly obtain one?

Thanks,

DL Ross

Hey, hey, hey you all! I, too, am sharing that I passed my A+ last week!!! On to studying for the Network+ next.

Question...I wanted to confirm something that I was told about the CompTIA exams. I was told that if you jump to the Network+ exam and pass it, you would basically have the A+ incorporated, or something like that? I'm looking for the best way to advise my students that have completed prep for both A+ and Network+. Of course, I will also speak with them to see what preference they each have, but I wanted to get some expert opinions. Should they jump right to Network+ and not worry about going back to take A+ also? I've heard Network+ is easier since it's more focused.

Thoughts??

And the answer can be found at s.comptia.org/3tcAmzh

I vaguely remember a mention that the name of CYSA+ was going to change to Security-X . Was I dreaming of is that actually going to happen?
