Should students take both? which comes first?

Good afternoon everyone. Are you aware of any preview material we have access to for the new Security+ training? Additionally, are you aware of any dates for TTT ? Prob when it drops in November...

Thanks

Everyone,

Hi. I passed A+ Core 2 on July 18. However, I have not yet received the email confirmation of this. From the email, you can accept your digital badge and have your certification posted on LinkedIn. Does anyone know what I need to do to get this confirmation? It does show that I passed on my CompTIA profile. Thank you.

Microsoft appears to be following a new path: "On August 22, we will begin updating our exams so that you will be able to access Microsoft Learn as you complete your exam. This resource will be available in all role-based and specialty exams in all languages by mid-September."

Thoughts?

Good Afternoon Ciners,


Does anyone know when the next TTT is for the A+? I have an instructor that I'd like to onboard who has the certification.

Thanks...

Stephen -

Keep up the good work. The PowerPoints for the certifications, Word documents, and guest PowerPoints are a great resource. Working with CompTIA since 1999/2000(?), the resources we have now are unbelievable.

Question: Are there "official" Comptia powerpoints that are available to instructors for each certification?

I've been using my textbook publisher's resources and found some of them to be lacking in content in certain areas, and I wanted to know if there was something better that covered everything students were expected to know.

Opportunity to provide a 5-day ISC2 Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP) Boot Camp
course for fifteen personnel on-site in Norco, CA.

• The instructor is responsible for course planning and instruction in the classroom.
• In addition, instructors are responsible for student evaluation, and timely and accurate submission of required paperwork related to instruction.

We look forward to chatting with you!

Kindly is there a URL in Comptia indicating the prerequisites of CYSA+03 course ? I need to send it to my clients.

If some one going to teach Microsoft course he introduce himself as an MCT and some of them proudly shows his MCT certificate
Same for Amazon
Same for Cisco

What about Comptia ?
I hope in the future will be the same as Microsoft,Amazon.Cisco,.........
Note:
Being member of CIN is not enough in this area,I hope to have a clear certificate of authorization of teaching Comptia products.

Did any of you get TTT Cysa+ voucher?
I did not hear from Stephen in the current TTT DataSys+ sessions to talk about TTT Cysa+ voucher.
Stephen said we shall receive it automatically in our mails. They are using a new system to this now. But am yet to receive.

@Stephen Schneiter please any feedback on the subject matter?

Hi There all,

Does anyone know of an assessment i can use for potential students?

Something that could test their knowledge to attend the course because i find a huge skill gap when they attend the course.

I'd appreciate any feedback.

Thanks all.

Nate.

Is it acceptable for a trainer to promote their services and mention English is their primary or exclusive language?

Access Computer Training is a growing post-secondary technical training school in Tampa Bay, FL. We have been providing these CompTIA courses since January of 2022 and have consistently been enrolling more and more students and are now in need of an additional trainer to help with added classes as well as bootcamps for local businesses/contractors to certify their employees and transitioning military. The position is a remote part time position at roughly 20 hours per week starting at $30/hr as a contract trainer. We can be flexible on the schedule and will work with you to accommodate your schedule. Looking for someone to hopefully move into a roll of full time employee as my director of IT training. This position comes with the need for an energetic person who is enthusiastic about transferring the knowledge to students who are completely new to the IT industry, in career changing situations and need a little extra hand holding. Access Computer Training takes pride in our approach to help each individual student with their learning needs. Mentorship is critical. We bring in subject matter experts who are working in the industry to talk to the students about their own career path and where they are today. Giving students a realistic outlook on their own potential as they embark on a new career journey. Study hard, work hard, and study some more to pass these exams and get the certs is critical especially when they come with no IT background but aspire to get into Networking or CyberSecurity. We strive for the success of each and every student and become their accountability partner through this endeavor. If you are passionate about teaching and have the ability to keep students on track and excited about the possibilities, please reach out. I'd love to chat with you. Thanks, Kristin

We are a CompTIA Training Partner based in Uganda, and looking for a certified CTT for a short-term Comptia training engagement. The person should have CompTIA A+/ Network+ or any other CompTIA Certification.

Please share your CV and Certificate copies

Hi there,

In our IT programs, we provide students with vouchers which cover the cost of whichever certification exams may be covered in that program. For example, in our beginning IT program, we provide the students with vouchers to take the A+ and Network+ exams, however, many of them never seem to get around to taking them, and of course, we are supposed to provide pass rates for the exams. I have heard of some schools and programs that basically embed the certification exams into the coursework.

Does anyone have an example of best practices on how to do this, and to get the students to actually take the exam.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Sandis

I know that the TTT Sessions follow the map of which CompTIA certs are being upgraded to new versions, but I've had difficulty figuring out what comes next! I still need to do the exam for Linux+, and I haven't had the time to dive into the last few but am coming into a period where I have more time available.

So, what's next??

Good day to all.

Had a student miss a question today based upon information that does not appear in the SG or slides. It has to do with False Positive being synonymous with False Acceptance Rate. And while the definition (someone's biometric matching with the wrong person and possibly giving them unauthorized access), somewhat lines up, it isn't something they would be able to read and extrapolate. And for False Negative, it means that someone was denied access that should have been given access based upon proper credentials/biometrics, being synonymous with False Rejection Rate. My issue isn't the definitions, it is that this information is not presented to the students in a way that they would get the question correct, since we usually refer to False Positive/Negative in terms of vulnerability analysis and device alerts, and they don't quite line up with the biometrics in terms of their meanings. I added it as an addendum to make sure my students know these definitions now. Maybe I'm totally wrong though. I defer to the esteemed consensus of my fellow instructors.

It was great meeting up with fellow CINers. Great information and ideas were exchanged. I just have more questions regarding the TestOut certification phase out and the plans for the replacement of the TestOut certifications. A special thanks to @Rick Butler and @Stephen Schneiter . @Robert Bodnar some of your questions were answered. Additional explanations will be forthcoming. Until next time CINers...
