In the past Academic Partners were able to receive discount codes for the CompTIA exams. However, now we cannot get the codes. Trying to figure out why. Any attempt to get answers, well.... there are none. In the previous year, requesting the codes only took a day or two. Now, we have been requesting for weeks and still no resolution. We have numerous students waiting to test and without the discount codes, financially, there is no way for them to test otherwise. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

When students reach out and ask me for additional training materials, we often share Jason Dion in Udemy and Mike Meyers. Does anyone else have a go-to training program that they share that doesn't go against CompTIA guidelines?

Has anyone mapped the NIST KSAs to CompTIA's courses? Specifically, I'm looking at Sec+ and Net+ to start with. I plan on mapping them myself, but if someone has already done it, then I don't want to reinvent the wheel.

What is the best/cheapest way to purchase cert exam vouchers for an educator?

Good afternoon everyone.

I'm watching the Train the Trainer webinar for network+
will we still get credit and be able to get a voucher for watching it even though its not live anymore? i have been saving the completion certs.

thank you for your time.

Hi All. Happy New Year. I was looking for information including dates on the transition from ITF to Tech+ and for details of any update for Network+. Is there one place I can find a roadmap for CompTIA courses with these and other course information and any associated Train the Trainer sessions? I can see that some of this stuff was announced at the CompTIA summit last year which I wasn't able to attend. Thanks in advance.

DOES COMPTIA take my Valid SY0-601 and convert it to 701 if so what proof I have some one that whats me to train but I must have 701 and client wants to see.

I completed the CIN Security+ Train the Trainer TestOut series recently. What heading would this fall under Training or Webinar? I just would like to be accurate in how it is catagorized.

Thank You for any assistance.

I saw one slide from Comptia official documentation that listed "Antivirus Software" as a example of Physical Security.
I never heard that before so I was wondering if any of you have seen that statement before.

Hi,

We run our own pearsonvue test center at our college (private), and was noticing the exam codes for Network+.
In the CompTIA list, there is N10-008 for the Network+ exam, but there is also N10-008-ADA.
Any clue what the ADA exam is for?

Hello, all, have anyone received or heard anything about the past TTT Security+ 701 vouchers?

Good morning all,

I am new to the CIN network so I apologize for the dumb question.

I am reaching out for aid in some sort of Train-the-Trainer class for the new Sec+ 701 course. I was looking through the resources provided and can't seem to find anything. I understand that this course was recently launched and I am happy to wait for the content to drop. I just want to be sure I cover my bases and ask before I wait.

Thank you for your help!

My company has changed its name, and as a result my email address has changed. When I attempt to edit my email address by clicking the "Change" button under "Account Details", I get a message that says changes were saved, but am offered no opportunity to actually edit the address. I am somewhat concerned that I will no longer receive notifications surrounding TTT sessions or other correspondence once my company mothballs the old email domain.

I have attempted to ask a number of the different Sysadmins on here, to no avail. Hoping posting here will make it more likely my request will be seen by the right person.

Thanks in advance!


Also still anxiously awaiting my DataSys+ voucher, but that's a different conversation!

Hello Cinners,

Hope you're having a good monring. I have a few students that our Academy have purchsed CompTIA Learn, Labs and Practice for. The subscription is for one year, but the students will not be using them for an entire year.

Can I transfer that license to another student?

With Appcreication,

Good Afternoon Cinners!

Hope you had an enjoyable weekend and are ready for a productive week. A colleague asked if CompTIA is moving toward Master level certifications. He advised that a colleague of his shared this information.

Is there any truth to this?

Lastly, where can I access documentation on the Security+ 701 outline and the CYSA+ CSO-003

Thanks.

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!

Need help. My CIN account got locked. ?
I tried logging into CIN forum from my laptop. Tried lots of times, then my account got locked.

Fortunately, I never signed out from my desktop, so I am able to post this thread.

Who should I contact to seek help?
Kindly advise. Thanks!

I passed Part one of the CTT+ certification exam before the last day ended. I still have until the end of October to submit my recordings for TK-202 and TK-203.

The issue is can anyone provide me a link to download the latest forms? Seems as if all I've been able to find have been the old one for TK-202.

Any help would greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Greetings Fellow Instructors!

In advance of the upcoming Security+ TTT series I wanted to ask the Instructor Community for their ideas, thoughts, and opinions about some of the tools of our instructional trade.

How do you 'break the ice' with the students in your classes?

What do you do as the instructor to tell the students about yourself and your experience?

How do you facilitate helping your students learn about others in the class?

As I teach virtual classes over Zoom and Webex I often use a start of course survey. I briefly introduce myself (please call me Brian; I'm your instructor; this is my email; and I'm in the eastern time zone) and ask then questions such as: their name (sometimes my registrar or Zoom/Webex inserts email addresses in class list); what they like to be called (nickname); where they are from (optional); and where they are in their journey (getting started or testing after last class). This isn't a mandatory survey and I get about a 75% response rate. I reach out to each student who doesn't respond within the first 2-3 days.

What do you do?

Brian

Where is a source for Network+ 008 PPT slides?

Hello! I'm a Program Manager for a training provider and CompTIA Partner and we are submitting a RFP, that of course is due tomorrow. The RFP requests some sample class schedules. We are basing them off the Presentation Planners that are in the Instructor Materials. Problem I can't access the instructor materials for Cloud Essentials+ or Linux+. (Yes I reached out to my Business Development Manager to get that fixed.) But, does anyone have the presentation planners for Cloud Essentials+ and Linux+? I don't need any other materials, only those planners. Thanks so much!

I have started studying for the Linux+. I am currently reading a book and doing the Linux Pro in Testout. Any other suggestions to prepare for it. I am looking at taking it in December.

Hello, I am looking to teach a Security Plus course to my co-workers' boot camp style, where can I get the instructor's material?
