CompTIA CySA+ TTT series sessions are really informative.

Information Systems of Maryland (ISM), LLC is seeking a CompTIA Instructor with an entrepreneurial spirit to join our growing team. ISM is a technology consulting firm that specializes in providing small, medium, large and public sector organizations with technology project solutions, security solutions and human capital services. To meet the increasing needs of our organization we are seeking an CompTIA Instructor that wants to take part in our success and become a key member of the company. We offer an exceptional compensation package and fast-tracked opportunity for growth. If you would like to learn more about ISM, please visit us on the web at www.is-md.com

We have immediate needs to sponsor and/or get our own personnel classroom trained and exam ready for A+ CE, Network+ CE and Security+ (full course).

A class participant openly has learning challenges and CANNOT do these in a virtual format, so we're looking for private 1:1 training and/or classroom group-based training to accommodate this.

Past these immediate needs, our company is in discussions of acquiring an existing training school in Virginia, who currently offers training in a totally different industry, and would be an excellent opportunity for us to bolt on CompTIA training capabilities, among some others we have desires of doing. If you are an instructor/educationalist at heart and want to teach other subjects, upon the completion of said acquisition, we would be more than open and happy to acquaint and credential instructors for the other training industry currently served.

If you are interested, please contact us by e-mail to get a conversation started, [email protected]

So, it would seem that I'm starting to reach artifact status here in the CIN....today, this came through:



So, hurriedly, I thought I'd check my new pixel acquisition and:



*sigh* Oh well - womp-womp.

Oh well. I guess that means @Stephen Schneiter owes me beer now.

Hello,

I’ve created a new Canvas course for the 1200 series and would like to know if there’s a way to smoothly migrate students from my existing 1100 series course while preserving their progress in the new shell.

Has anyone successfully done this before, or is there a recommended method to handle this type of transition?

Thank you!

Hey guys, is pentest+ lab moved to latest version v3 moved to compTIA platform or still on LOD

i am looking for CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) exam voucher and lab manual
can any one help?

As you know, everything starts with networks and operating systems.
With new technologies and Linux as the foundation of the cloud, it makes perfect sense to refresh some topics, particularly Linux.
I have some Linux knowledge and know how necessary it is, so I think a refresher with a voucher is necessary.

As you know, everything starts with networks and operating systems, and with new technologies, it makes sense to refresh some topics. Personally, I have many Azure, AWS, and CompTIA certifications, so I think a refresher course with a voucher is needed.

Kindly confirm if you have distributed Security X and CloudNetX vouchers @Stephen Schneiter

We are looking to hire an A+ Trainer to start in September. Located in Winston-Salem, NC and the class will be in-person on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6pm - 8:30pm. Please let me know if you are interested by emailing me at [email protected].

Thank you,

Hi there
where i well find the voucher to access to courses and meterial of A+

Are there any good resources where I can get some good in-class exercises to do with my students for A+, Network+, and Security+? I know there are somethings included in CertMaster, but I am hoping to find material outside of CompTIA that could be useful.

Good Afternoon CIN,
We have had access to TestOut for ages. Then with all of the new course releases, we would receive them. With the new CertMaster Security+, we did not receive access. I tried calling CompTIA and was told to submit a help ticket. We used to have a CompTIA and a TestOut contact person, but now TestOut is no more. So my question is who can we reach out to. I have no idea who our sales person is. things have been great for so long that John Mongeon was our sales manager. We just found out about we have an issue because the new courses are starting up. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

Corey Douglas

I am interested in teaching another class or two along with my duties. I have been teaching using CompTIA both Asynchronous and Synchronous for the last 2 years as an Assistant Professor. I have a recent PhD in IT and have been teaching Cybersecurity classes mainly. In the past, I was an MCT and completed and was certified in a CCT class prior.

I have a lot of experience with Canvas and CompTIA, especially with Asynchronous, and prefer it along with discussion questions I grade and add. I have done all the normal quizzes and forum posts through Canvas to add to the class.

Do we really need to know Linux anymore now that we have the Cloud and AI? Join us for the CIN Sneak Peek where @James Stanger and @jasoneckert will talk about the latest CompTIA Linux+ certification exam. We will talk about why Linux is still relevant and Jason will walk us through changes with the new exam objectives. This is going to be a great session!

The CompTIA Linux+ is for the IT pro who will use Linux to manage everything from cars and smartphones to servers and supercomputers, as a vast number of enterprises use Linux in cloud, cybersecurity, mobile and web administration applications.

Hello, Stephen.

Hi all,

I’ve been exploring some of the newer machine learning libraries gaining traction this year, and I came across this article that outlines a few promising ones for 2025:
Top Machine Learning Libraries in 2025

It mentions familiar names like PyTorch, TensorFlow, HuggingFace, but also highlights tools like JAX and ONNX, which seem to be growing in adoption.

I’m curious to hear from the community:

• What libraries are you currently using for ML projects?
• Have you adopted any newer ones recently that you’d recommend?
• Are there any you think are overhyped or underappreciated?

I’m particularly interested in workflows for NLP and deploying lightweight models to production, so any insights there would be awesome too.

Looking forward to learning what others are experimenting with, thanks!
