When is the new version of Security+ TTT going to be scheduled? I am teaching a 701 class currently, but know it is scheduled to be updated again.

I'm an instructor for Penn Foster College. Since the CompTIA A+ exam is updated every few years, we need to revamp our course to ensure that we are properly educating students on the requirements for the exam. Is there any way we can determine the required material so that we can better develop and update our courses to meet the CompTIA expectations?

CompTIA DataAI: The Reimagined DataX Certification for the Advanced Data and AI Workforce​

January 12, 2026

CompTIA is rebranding its advanced DataX certification as DataAI, reflecting the fundamental shift in how data work is performed across modern organizations. This official transition is set to take place on January 21, 2026.

Data and AI are no longer adjacent disciplines: Today’s data roles increasingly require proficiency in machine learning, advanced analytics, and AI-driven decision-making.

Artificial intelligence is becoming more deeply embedded into analytics, operations, and decision-making, with demand rising for professionals who can design, implement, and operate intelligent data systems responsibly and at scale.

CompTIA DataAI validates those capabilities, giving experienced professionals a clear way to demonstrate advanced expertise, while giving employers confidence that their data and AI initiatives are being built on sound technical, operational, and governance foundations.

Passed CompTIA Tech+: It’s always beneficial to revisit foundational courses periodically—they help keep your skills sharp and ensure you stay current in the rapidly evolving world of technology.

We have an ongoing training and we need a certified Comptia Security X instructor with a deep knowledge of HacktheBox modules for penetration testing

Hi All,

I'm a VMware Certified Instructor, Microsoft certified trainer & CSA certified Instructor.

So can I apply to become CompTIA certified instructor ? Pl guide the procedure for the same.

Thanks.

Hello colleagues,
I passed the SecurityX (CAS-005) exam today 07-01-26. It was challenging but I managed to get through it successfully.

Out Side of the pricy material that we can get from CompTIA, is there any other options for up to date instructor material. As of now I have been using the older Power Points from Total Sim for the 1100 series that I have been updating by hand to include all the new 1200 information. Total Sim informed us today that they will not be producing any more instructor material for any level of certifications.

Hello mates, Trust we are all good, happy new year, I am currently surprised here because Nothing like the thrill of an unexpected pre-exam puzzle: Why is this voucher I've been safeguarding like Gollum already redeemed? A true test of patience before the test , I Just tried to use my exam voucher and the system says it's already been redeemed. Has this happened to anyone else? @Stephen Schneiter Please sir help look into this.

Good evening,

I am an adjunct professor at Bronx Community College in the Cybersecurity department. I would like to go for the Security+ exam. Will I get any discount to buy the voucher, or is there a possibility to get a free voucher to give the exam? I am planning to sit for the exam on January 10th or 15th. Please let me know.

Regards,
Sumon

THanks guys! any help will do.

Dear Stephen Scheneiter,

I have joined the community on November this year and didnt have the opportunity to accompany the CIN CTT series for the comptia N+.

If not, is there any other way to have access to the pdf files for the comptia n+?

For AI Essentials and AI Prompting Essentials, where in the course / training do you take the internal exam to get the certificates of completion to obtain the completed training ? Im not seeing them in the Comptia Training page ??

Hello,

I have official CompTIA TTT / Training access for Network+.
Could you please confirm where I can find the official instructor training slides (PPT/PDF)?

I currently have access to:
- CertMaster Learn
- Labs / practice materials

However, I am looking specifically for:
- Official Network+ instructor slides
- Downloadable PPT or PDF materials (if available)

Additionally, if recorded videos of the TTT session are available, could you please let me know where I can access them or share the relevant links?

Are these slides and videos available in CompTIA Central, CertMaster, or a separate Instructor Resource portal?

Thank you for your support.

Hey folks. My current employer is seeking an instructor to teach their upcoming Network+ and Security+ courses. If you're in the Columbus OH area and this interests you, check out the job listing here: https://jobs.dayforcehcm.com/en-US/gwcols/CANDIDATEPORTAL/jobs/11151

I received Core 1 A+ voucher and took the exam too, but I never received core 2. Did this happened to anyone? I tried requesting it but no success.

Discount validation failed.

Voucher: Voucher - ********8279 (CompTIA Non-Academic WW (Not India) - Tier 4)

• This voucher cannot be used on this order because it provides the same discount as a voucher already on the order Please contact Customer Service (http://www.pearsonvue.com/contact/vuephone/) for further assistance.
• This voucher cannot be used with other vouchers. The order already contains a voucher.
• This order contains a voucher that does not permit use with other vouchers.

I need help

please help.

Hello Guys,
Has Anyone of you received Linux+ V8 Exam vouchers? I haven't received it yet.
If no,
Do you have any idea when we will receive it?

I see a mistake here... Anyone can confirm?
One memory controller per CPU (usually integrated):
• In most modern architectures (Intel since Nehalem, AMD since Athlon 64), the memory controller is built into the CPU, not the motherboard chipset.
• That controller can support multiple channels (dual, quad, even octa-channel), but it’s still one controller per CPU socket.
Multi-socket motherboards: (not explicitly defined)
• If a motherboard supports more than one CPU socket (like in servers), then each CPU has its own integrated memory controller.
• So a dual-socket server board would effectively have two memory controllers, one per CPU.
• Older designs (pre-2003 Intel):
• The memory controller used to reside in the northbridge chipset on the motherboard. In those cases, there was still typically one controller per system, not multiple.

I think this question needs re-phrasing

Hi CINers
last session from the AI essentials TTT is not loaded correctly , any body have the same problem ?

Just passed the CompTIA Data+ certification exam! Wow! There was a lot of word questions and not a lot of calculation questions. With detailed studying and practice, you can pass it too! Many thanks all!

Just passed the CompTIA Cloud+ certification exam! whew! quite a bit hard but with hard work and prayers, you can pass it too! Thank you @Stephen Schneiter and the CompTIA TTT for making this happen!
