    CompTIA A+ 1201 and 1202 passed

    It just shows that you're A+ certified. CompTIA does not have any distinction that shows someone is a trainer.

    Passed Network+ today!

    When I took the exam earlier this year, it did not have subnetting questions on it. I was quite surprised.

    Do You Report Cheating?

    I agree that the 8570/8104 was poorly implemented. There should be exemptions for people in non-technical positions. That being said, I can't condone cheating. It devalues the certification for everyone who put forth the hard work and honest effort to pass.

    Regarding Security+ Labs

    I taught boot camps for 20+ years. With the amount of lectures, labs, practice quizzes, and exams, I couldn't possibly fit all the content into a 40-hour boot camp. So, I skipped all the labs and practice quizzes/exams on focused on the lecture and demonstrations. My goal was to ensure the...

    Knowing NIST

    EC-Council has fallen out of favor in the industry. It's overpriced, the certs don't provide a lot of value, and the leaders have been found guilty of both plagiarism and sexism. If the DoD dropped them from the 8140 list, they would completely drop off the radar.
