    Is this forum still alive?

    This is why we've shifted nearly all of our assessments to practical ones in our IT programs years ago (and are moving closer to 100% each year). There are several reasons we decided to do this: 1. It aligns to the program outcomes (job-ready skills). 2. It prevents students who don't spend the...

    Server+ and Project+ going to the CE model

    I think all technical certifications should be CE simply because technology changes rapidly over time. For Server+ (an on-prem server admin certification), things are definitely changing rapidly, especially with CM becoming the norm and a templating requirement for cyber insurance. And for...

    Is this forum still alive?

    I've also noticed that students nowadays want to magically become proficient in a skill without putting in any effort. This could be partly generational (the lost COVID generation from high school), and partly due to societal and technological (AI) changes. But I find there are only 2 types of...

    Passed CompTIA SecAI+ (CY0-001)

    Congrats+ on earning SecAI+! That’s a great achievement and really shows your dedication to staying current in the evolving security landscape. Wishing you continued success in your certification journey. If you want, I can adjust the tone to be more professional or casual.

    CIN 2026 Webinars Feedback Wanted

    AutoOps+ looks intriguing! 🥳

    Server+ and Project+ going to the CE model

    Makes sense for both. As for Server+, on-prem isn't going anywhere in the future (but it may be given a new niche term like "edge" :sneaky: ). If Server+ is ever retired, it'll likely be because it's rolled up into a hybrid cloud (=on-prem + cloud provider managed together) certification that...

    Passed PTO-003 today

    In fine tradition, I waited until the TTT voucher was about to expire before writing this exam. But I must say, I really enjoyed this one - far better than PT0-002 when it comes to industry alignment! Plus the performance questions definitely required you had in-depth experience with the tools...

    DataX is renamed DataAI

    Nice! I created a new program at the college called Data Analysis & AI Specialist (DAAS) that essentially maps to the content in DataX, and we bundle the DataX certification with the program. So, this renaming aligns it more closely with our program title :)

    Slides for the new V8 course

    I'm not sure if this post is a question regarding slides for Linux+, but one thing that I should note for posterity is that LLMs can accurately generate any PPT/summary content related to Linux if you provide it a detailed list of topics (e.g., from a table of contents). An example prompt could...

    Holding AI Accountable

    The dome draws their attention, the book delivers the message. Classic two-stage pedagogy :sneaky:

    Holding AI Accountable

    I think that trying to hold AI accountable for how people use it would be about as effective in practice as trying to quiet a room full of toddlers by whispering ‘shhh.’ Encouraging responsible use of AI through education is likely our best shot at avoiding tragedies. To do my part, I walk...

    I did it!

    That’s awesome! Going deeper into Linux is the only rabbit hole where the rabbits wear penguin costumes and ask if you’ve tried editing the config file.
