Team, I sat and passed (updated my A+), 220-1102 last night! Great exam, @comptia ! From the perspective of the Help Desk, the exam hit its target. Customer service is extremely important and that was stressed on this exam. The questions were real-world and gets you thinking. Hmmm...how would I handle this situation if I was helping this customer?

For those of you that are ramping up for this exam, know your testing objectives and how to troubleshoot them. Keep one thing in mind, CompTIA assumes the tester knows the objectives. They are testing you on the application.

Keep objective 4.7 in mind. Great customer service results in positive outcomes. Review the security domain, as well. So many various security issues that your customers have ?

@Stephen Schneiter

anyone received Data + voucher
It's more than 9 weeks left.

Happy Monday!

I hope you all enjoyed the last question of the week, and thank you to all who participated!

This week we are starting on a Monday, but the answer will still be provided for you on Friday. As always, who’s got the answer for the Question of the Week?


Question: Do you know about the new A+ workbench Labs?




Enjoy the rest of your week, and check back in Friday for our answer!

The Spring semester is history (grades in) and I'm scaling back from teaching, slipping into retirement. But as most of you know, I'm not very good at doing nothing. Below are the links for the first two articles in a series of articles that I think would ultimately lead to a series of labs that could benefit students and be completed on their SOHO wireless networks at a minimum cost (equipment is around $50) that will result in substantial savings on their electricity bill.

https://www.emporiaenergy.com/blog/managing-electrical-energy-costs-with-tou-limitations
https://www.emporiaenergy.com/blog/...cisions-on-time-of-use-electrical-consumption

Because of the large amount of valuable data being collected in this home project, it provides the opportunity for students to gain a general understanding of why machine learning makes sense and how, through the development of relatively simple coding, to automatically decide on where and when to toggle smart plugs and switches. This will be the focus of my next article.

The 4th article will focus on security techniques associated with isolating this network of IOT devices from my standard home network equipment since it is reasonable to assume these $10 smart plugs and other IOT devices were not built with security as a primary concern.

What makes this series of labs additionally appealing is the potential for reduced energy bills and the ecological benefit associated with the reduction of energy consumption.

Retirement now provides the opportunity to focus on these sort of "geekish experiments" that provide practical solutions to real-world problems. I'd appreciate your thoughts on this idea.

Thanks,

Steve

Currently, I'm matching up the emails with a one SSO access. Small task to get back online for my instructor resources and conversations with fellow CINs.

You can install it with "dnf install cheat" (Fedora/RedHat/CentOS) or "apt install cheat" (Ubuntu/Debian) or "pacman -S cheat" (Arch) or "zypper install cheat" (SuSE):

Access key for the TtT attendee received with many thanks !
Working fine

I will be teaching using Cetmaster learn & labs for Cloud+ in the Fall. In preparation, I am working on my syllabus and am required to have grade weights posted. Is there a spreadsheet breakdown of scoring for PBQ, assisted/applied labs, practice questions, and final assessment?

We are working on an exciting new project and wanted to see if you or anyone you know are interested in being a pilot school again.

We are creating a website where students, teachers, and other adult champions can access free courseware and learn more about technology. There will be curricula that can be taught in schools and self-guided lessons for students. In addition, we will be building a career cluster section, where students can learn about technology careers in different industries.

We are looking for some middle and junior-high schools to pilot some of our content beginning in August 2022. If you or someone you know is interested, please refer to the sign-up form below. There is more detail included in the link below.

https://app.smartsheet.com/b/form/4aec0f9be3344eefa8d48ed7f0edf6c6

We will get in touch with the school as soon as we receive an application for additional instructions.

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions. Thanks,

So... Braindump sites are everywhere. And then there's videos like these...

Where the creator specifically goes over the question and confirms that the question is on the exam.

Can CompTIA confirm that:

• They are protecting the value of our certifications by cracking down on dump sites like ExamTopics?
• They are protecting the value of our certification by revoking certification status for know NDA breakers?

I dislike pointing to specific people like Selena, but this stuff is really blatant.

Hi Everyone,

Say, have any of you done any work for a company named Force7 Training out of Colorado Springs, Colorado?

Thanks.

Hi Everyone,

Just curious if anyone has a recording of a day 1 of 5 day delivery where they walk through the CertMaster Platform, show how to use it, tell the Learners how to use it, and then talk about the method they (as an Instructor) are going to use to deliver the course?

My thinking is that (depending on the size of the class) it would be like the first hour or less of the course.

Thanks everyone.

I'm having trouble accessing Session 4 on on24, anyone else having the same problem?

Page looks like it's loading content but i can't see any of the handsome Gentlemen or resources after a few minutes it says " Webinar has concluded. Thank you for engaging with us"

I would love to get your feedback. Why on the Reddit for CompTIA is there so much negativity toward official learning resources? Why does everyone almost always recommend Dion and Messer? So many of us are trying to teach to students and I can't help wonder if I should be using different resources. I certainly understand the advantage of using multiple resources, but due to time and budgets, I can't have/use everything.

Hi All,

I am looking for some new activities to use in teaching A+ classes. Is anyone willing to share favourite Kahoots or other activities we can use?

(You can share Kahoots for other certifications as well, they're all useful eventually!)


Thanks everyone!

Hi All!

I was just wondering if there is a place here on the CIN website, that shows the past classes you have relieved credit for or the courses you are currently registered for? Any info is much appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey everyone and Happy Monday! I wanted to throw this out there this week as we are a good ways into the NEW CompTIA SSO process, and wanted to make sure to address any questions around this topic.

So, instead of posing a question I will leave this open to anyone that may be experiencing issues, or just has questions around this topic. On Friday we will post some of our Best Practice and Resources information so you will be able to address or answer any questions from Students who may have them. See you then!

Hi all

I've been trying to catch-up on the last A+ TTT sessions 11&12 , but on24 keeps saying the Content not available or is still being processed.

Anyone else out there getting the same issue?
