• CIN will be sunsetting the official CIN app! The app will be turned off on Saturday, August 1st. Thank you to everyone who used the app to post updates. It just was not adopted as much as hoped. This is ONLY the mobile app. The CIN community is not being affected. :)

    A+ (Core 1 and Core2) in a 15 week course.

    I agree with Greg here, while some can retain the knowledge of both before testing for Core 1, most will do better immediately after learning the material.

    CYSA+ V4

    I received my voucher 7/23. If you have not yet received yours yet, check and make sure you have all of the certificates of completion, these will help you show you should have received a voucher.

    Instructor Resources

    I didn't think you were a student, but as a freelance instructor, the situation becomes a bit more complicated. The CompTIA slides are part of the CertMaster courses, so they generally would not be available for use outside of that platform. If you are considering using CompTIA's training...

    Exam Rules - BEWARE!

    It isn't just since the AI explosion that I had these same type of issues. No whiteboards, even blank, and you and I had the same thought of sheets over desks for things that couldn't easily be removed.

    Instructor Resources

    Your school administration will have this information on who is their Business Development Manager at CompTIA.

    CYSA+ V4

    In addition to Rick's statement I would add that Stephen Schneiter stated he will post information to this thread when they are going out: https://cin.comptia.org/threads/cysa.2779/post-24969

    Please Don't Distribute Copyrighted Materials

    It is sad that people think the can do this with no repercussions. You could always report it to his employer, Allstate, who would likely not appreciate his shenanigans. :LOL:

    Returning to Training After a Break - a couple of questions.

    100% agree with Greg here. Staying up to date with what CompTIA is focused on as a trainer is critical to ensure we give the proper amount of time to a subject. Example: VLAN coverage in A+. Is it huge? No. But was it previously considered reserved for Network+ essentially.

    Exam activation for NET+ issues

    Hello CIN'ers! Is anyone having troubles activating exams on the CompTIA side? All courses are working fine for me except Certmaster Network+. All tabs work except "custom quizzes" Seems to be a credentials-related issue by the error message. I did all the basic support stuff, logged fully out...

    Regarding the CertMaster CE product

    What I wished that page said is "those with an an active certification can use the CE product to extend for another 3 years." or something like that. You can use CE courses even if you used a CE to go from 501 to 601. As long as it is current, you are good to go.

    CySA+

    It is typically a few weeks after the cutoff date for watching on-demand. I am hopeful for early August myself given past experiences.

    Passed Security +

    The first time around that is a tough one! Congrats! Is this for personal growth, or are you preparing to start teach Security+ content?
