I am wanting to add a Network+ course and I am wondering if anyone else has used CompTIA's materials as an entire semester course or used as supplemental material for another course. If both have options have been used, which one seemed to work best? Thanks I am excited to be a part of this community.

This may be a dumb question but is there any benefit in sitting the CS0-002 beta exam if one has already passed CS0-001 and is CySA+ certified?

And how does the beta exam work and how long will it be available?

Peeps, I'm having a tough time finding a place where I can create some online labs for CompTIA certs. It seems I can get free VMs in the cloud for a 12-month trial period from all of the big names, but I need a place that will never charge my students any money. I very often am teaching people who made it into an income-based program, so I cannot reasonably ask them to spend more money than they have.

It would seem simple enough to get people to do the labs locally through Oracle VirtualBox or through Hyper-V (if available), but we also run into the issue of having classroom computers that simply are not robust enough (typically lacking RAM) to do the job right. We also have the ongoing problem of labs in the books that require Windows Server 2012, Windows 10, and such, which are not free, although we can ask students to download trial versions.

I'm finding myself very frustrated by the books that came from the LOChoice acquisition, as they ask us to do labs that we cannot do, and the online downloads do not even include the instructor setup files. I'm hoping someone here can help me help my students.

I think pentest needs update now for this gen!!!!!!!

Hi all,

Today, I received a mail from the UK Channel Community,
I was wondering: is there a community like this for The Netherlands?

On a side note, together with a Comptia Partner here in The Netherlands, I really want to boost Comptia trainings and getting more involved with Comptia,
so everything that helps to reach that goal helps

best regards,
Frederik Vos

Hey, all.

I've taken a few online practice tests for Security+ and have scored well above passing for almost all categories - but need some brushing up on a few areas.

Without purchasing an entire in-depth exam study guide, are there any good resources out there designed to quickly get an experienced IT professional up-to-speed? More of a "Cliffs Notes" version - but NOT a "memorize these answers" cheater version.

Thanks!

Did I miss info on the Cloud Essentials+ TTT? Gotta get my TTT fix!

I'm curious about the CompTIA CertMaster Linux product. In my undergraduate courses, I often get questions like, "What's the best tool to use to prep for the certification exam?", or "Can you recommend a good 'test simulation' product?". One would logically reason that the "best" prep tool is the one offered by the certifying body responsible for the examination. That said, I didn't actually use the product when I obtained the Linux+ certification. Thus, I don't feel comfortable recommending the tool to my students based on my lack of first-hand knowledge.

Have you used the CertMaster product? If so, do you recommend CertMaster as a good prep tool? What did you like about CertMaster?

Having a mentor can help you navigate your career and explore new opportunities. It's also great to be a mentor so you can give back and continue learning as well. So with that said, I'd like to help pair anyone up who is interested in being a mentor or mentee. Please send me a message and let me know what specifically you are interested in mentoring or being mentored in. Excited to hear from people!

With IoT devices increasing by the billions, and Blockchain promising to revolution how transactions are conducted, have we reached the point where IoT and Blockchain certifications are in order?
