Hello,
We are trying to build up our bench with ITF+ and Network+ instructors. Please reply with a resume and references.

Thanks

Tony

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.

I had a client ask me if I could teach a virtual CASP+ class next week. Apparently, they had an instructor booked but he backed out at the last minute.

If you have the CASP+ cert and can teach a virtual class next week, you can use the contact information below. Do not contact me or ask me questions about the assignment because I don't know much more about it than what I've already mentioned. I had to pass because I'm already teaching next week.

I've been talking to my usual CompTIA rep (aka "business development manager") via email and they were stimied by this one.

There's CompTIA exam voucher resellers who offer certification vouchers in ways that seem hard to compete with. These folks do not appear on CompTIA's registered partner list. Their websites also don't mention a parent company which could be on the list. What's more, their websites don't actually much of anything about the company! No registration information, no address.

Your initial thought might be "scammers", but supposedly plenty of folks on Reddit and elsewhere report getting their vouchers just fine. So payments are processed and working vouchers are delivered and used.

One example are voucherplex.com. They offer most vouchers at more than the usual 20% CompTIA partner discount. This might mean that they have a higher partner tier and thus get more discounts. But then why are they not on the partner list?

Another example is supervoucher.com. They are an even more interesting case! They offer exam vouchers with differing lifetimes, offering higher discounts for shorter lifetime vouchers. They also offer vouchers on a global level, so not just US/CA, but also UK, EU, Emerging markets etc, which should be impossible. I guess Supervoucher buy vouchers in bulk every month, selling them FIFO (first in first out) and then selling left-overs at reduced prices while they're almost expiring.

But again... they're not on the partner list, while they make claims about such status. They also don't list a parent company. No nothing.

Both companies, after some sleuthing, appear to be in Canada. One in Ontario, the other in Toronto.

I'm very curious about your insights... How the heck are companies that appear to not be registered partners buying vouchers in bulk? And how is one of them buying vouchers across the globe, instead of only in their own market?

Hello everyone,
I am new to CIN and was wondering if someone can provide a brief orientation of what and how I can benefit from being a member of this community.

Your help and guidance is much appreciated.

Best,
Moez B.

Thank you to CompTIA for creating a great lab for students which really make them understand better the practical hands on and theory part of the book. Those days we used to show it manually going to certain site but nowadays it's all in lab with explanation which the students understand better the course.
I make sure my students complete the lab before sit for the exam. Which will be very helpful when sitting for exam.

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.

EDIT: Let me rephrase my post, instead of ranting like a jealous child.

Has anyone here received an invite for the current Cloud+ beta?

I have missed out on multiple fun betas, because they didn't get publicly posted. Instead the invite was emailed to a limited group of people, whose demographics I don't know.

@Stephen Schneiter can you enlighten me? What is the process for inviting people into the betas?

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.

When the boss asks me to run a project... No problem!

Sat and passed Project+ yesterday! Woohoo!

CompTIA Project+ is critical for successful project implementation as it equips professionals with essential skills in project management, ensuring effective planning, communication, and risk management throughout the project lifecycle.

Hello All,

My Classes start up in a couple of weeks and I was wondering what you all use as posters for your classroom

I teach adults A+ and Network+ and just looking for ideas?

Thanks!

I'm thrilled to have the Pentest+ passed few minutes ago!
Thanks to all CompTIA team and CIN network for the valuable exchange during the TtT.
I purchased the voucher since I didn't receive the one related to the TtT.

I'm loving the new Learning Platform. Thanks CompTIA.

Saw this on LinkedIn today: https://www.comptia.org/newsroom/pr...options-for-students-and-career-professionals

Wonder what others think about it. Most interesting to me is the Pro series, where there is vendor-specific training.

Please see the posting below.

At this time, there are 14 recognized active CompTIA certifications:

A+
CASP+
Cloud+
Cloud Essentials+
CySA+
Data+
DataSys+
IT Fundamentals+
Linux+
Network+
PenTest+
Security+
Server+

There are also 12 recognized active CompTIA stackable certifications:

CompTIA IT Operations Specialist
CompTIA Systems Support Specialist
CompTIA Cloud Admin Professional
CompTIA Network Infrastructure Professional
CompTIA Linux Network Professional
CompTIA Secure Infrastructure Specialist
CompTIA Secure Cloud Professional
CompTIA Security Analytics Professional
CompTIA Network Vulnerability Assessment Professional
CompTIA Network Security Professional
CompTIA Security Analytics Expert
CompTIA Secure Infrastructure Expert

CompTIA Technical Trainer (CTT+) is good for life, but has been retired.
New versions of Network+, Cloud+, and PenTest+ will be launching this year.
DataX will be launching this year.

How many of the recognized active CompTIA certifications do you have? How many retired CompTIA certifications do you have?

2023 was a fantastic year and I would definitely recommend anyone on the fence to take and try CompTIA's Selection of exams.

Unfortunately, they don't give you a card for ITF+ And Cloud Essentials+, but i did manage to complete all exams in 8 years.

Do we know if CompTIA Has any plans to Modernize the Branding Packs for Certificates etc ?

I am wishing All the CIN Members the best of luck in their studies and a happy new year for 2024
