CompTIA Learning has an Immediate Need for a Labs Accuracy Checker for CASP+

CompTIA Learning is looking for a CASP+ certified instructor to perform a "key check" of our forthcoming CertMaster Labs product for CASP+ (CAS-004). The key checker is responsible for progressing through the lab activities (hosted via Learn on Demand Systems) as a student would and noting any inaccuracies, confusing steps, or errors within the content. Our author will use this feedback to ensure our labs are ready for launch.

Compensation provided.

We are looking to begin work in early August and it will progress through September.

Please complete our application if you are interested. Thanks!

Request for feedback on CTT+ video recording

Hi Guys,

I recorded a portion of my actual class session today to submit it and hopefully pass the TK0-202 (classroom performance-based exam). You can watch it here: https://1drv.ms/v/s!AvC-mif_Iw336gwMlPnBfXmdeBzO?e=DYSI8k

I know many of you here are already CTT+ and I just wanted to get some feedback about my video. I want to know if this will suffice or if I need to record another one.

I'm hoping that you can help me out on this. Please feel free to let me know your thoughts. :)

Thank you in advance.

- Ivan Jude.

DATA+ - a new CompTIA certification

Came to my attention in my inbox today a splash of comptia cooking a new certification: DATA+
SQL and Python are among the disciplines in the exam objectives.Screenshot 2021-07-03 110144.jpg
Would comptia ever consider a programming fundamentals certification now that is so important for both cloud and cybersecurity (more on the latter )
What are your thoughts?

How do I go about changing my profile / user login email address. Been looking through the account settings, can't find anywhere to do it. I'm not affiliated with the college and the college email address that I originally signed up with and would like to change it to my new college.
Thanks in advance!

Complete ITF+ Course In Canvas

I've packaged a course that is largely public domain (grant-funded), and with the exception of access to the Practice Labs virtual lab environment, free access to the content is available. All you need is to download the course export file (link below) and set up a free Canvas LMS teacher account, and you are good to go. This certification is foundational in nature and IMHO excellent for middle school and high school students as a starting point in this certification race track. The good news is students completing this course and certification will be well prepared for your A+, Network+, Security+, ...+ courses.

Network+ N10-007 Retirement

Sorry, I'm new here so I'm not sure if this has been addressed. I've seen a tentative release for the N10-008 Network+ Exam for August 2021. However, does anyone know if there will also be the usual 6 to 8 month overlap in Exam options before the N10-007 is completely retired and one can no longer sit for that one? Any input would be very helpful. Thank you.

CTT+ Technical Trainer or CTT+ Virtual Classroom Trainer?

I got the CTT+! ????

I'm a bit confused now:
I thought the cert would be called (as per comptia.org)
CompTIA Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+)

As I took the 203(virtual class trainer).
my cert title is instead:
CompTIA CTT+ Virtual Classroom Trainer
If so, It is a bit deceiving - as comptia.org says that Candidates passing the exams (201 + 202) or (201+203), would acquire the CompTIA Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+)

I can see an issue here - ambiguity -
Or can the 202 be taken as well after passing the 203?

Thank you.
