    Pearsonvue test center? You got one?

    I haven't experienced personally the online remote testing, but I recommend to our students to write at a test center.

    Unused servers

    We have a dedicated lab with 20 rack Dell R620 servers that are used for a specific course geared around Server+. We do lots of Hyper-V as we have access to Windows Server OS's through our Microsoft subscription to Azure Dev Tools to Teaching. (Free) But I gotta say, the students love this...

    Pearsonvue test center? You got one?

    Anyone here work for an organization that also runs a pearsonvue test center? Does your public test center get paid for running exams? IIRC, private test centers do not get paid, but public ones should. Is that still the case? Thanks!

    Comptia Academy Student discounts

    I was looking for that list as well and it appears to have been removed from the CompTIA partner site. Also the login to the partner site doesn't work anymore, so not sure what's going on there.

    Academy Partner price list? 2025

    I can't seem to find the latest partner price list for CompTIA exam vouchers. The partner website seems broken too. Anyone have the latest? I believe it was in an excel format. Thanks!

    Proposal for Integrating CompTIA Training into State University Curriculum

    Our college did this exact thing extensively. We became a CompTIA academy partner and then aligned several of our "Diploma" courses directly into preparing students to write a CompTIA exam. For example, our IT Diploma program has 20 courses. Students will take 5 courses per semester (15 weeks...

    Pearsonvue rejecting our partner academy ID number?

    For years, we've been an academy partner with CompTIA, and we've been able to purchase vouchers using an online pdf submission form. It looks like this... But now, pearsonvue is saying our Partner ID number is invalid, and we need to contact CompTIA. Should we send an email to...

    Boot Camps

    Just wanted to add what Rick mentioned about a PearsonVue test center. We run one, so I'm somewhat familiar with their guidelines, but here's a snippet from their policy. There is another bullet that mentions that even "trainers" within the last 12 months (certified themselves or not) cannot...

    Booked the wrong exam! Security+

    I accidently booked one of my students for Security+ SY0-701, but he wanted to write 601 while it's still available. (And that's the content he's studied for) We run our PearsonVue test center, so I think there is an option to cancel the order. But I'm worried that the voucher will not be...

    Exam codes in Pearsonvue for Network+?

    Hi, We run our own pearsonvue test center at our college (private), and was noticing the exam codes for Network+. In the CompTIA list, there is N10-008 for the Network+ exam, but there is also N10-008-ADA. Any clue what the ADA exam is for?

    CTT+ Poll

    I'm disappointed that CompTIA is retiring the CTT+. I bought the book last year and was planning to tackle the cert this late Spring. I guess I'll just read it, but now have no chance to earn the credential as our semester has started and I'm loaded with classes. Maybe they will come out with...

    Free/opensource A+ or A+ like textbooks or materials

    @jgoodrich Is your school already a member of Cisco Network Academy? If so, the "IT Essentials" course should be fairly close to the A+ exam objectives.

    Alternative Acceptable forms of ID

    We run a private PearsonVue test center and have access to CompTIA's policies. Here is a blurb from their policy on Candidate ID's: Non student/Minors require a Primary and Secondary ID. Here's a blurb from PearsonVue on ID's:
