    The best way to teach...

    I am not sure how I could help you with this...? If you work with a CompTIA partner I would reach out to them, but I do not have $527 to donate to your cause. I have been fortunate in that most of my exams over the last few years have been paid for by training partners, but even when I was...

    Why recertify?

    So true... and nobody asks us to retake our CISM or CISSP because nobody is GIVING those classes away... and frankly, I am not sure if we would even be able to take the latest versions once we hold the cert?

    The best way to teach...

    Thank you! Very well said though... I love the crossroads analogy. I would love to read your Top Ten! :)

    The best way to teach...

    Carnegie, you are absolutely right. I have written and lectured extensively about the right answer vs. the right exam answer. That does not even go into the Microsoft right answer and other mind-numbing concepts. That first paragraph was really just meant to lead into the actual point of the...

    The best way to teach...

    I started to write a post here about the skills that are required to be a good or great or excellent technical trainer... but it got pretty long, and I decided to post it to my blog. I hope you click through and enjoy it, and I look forward to reading your thoughts on it...

    Why recertify?

    Well said Greg. I have not been kicking the CompTIA can as long as you have been, but I have already been asked to take the latest version of certain exams. Ironically, it is the training companies that a) pay the least, and b) do not provide vouchers that have the 'latest version of the exam'...

    Fulfillments... Are we no longer fulfilled?

    I am glad I passed SecurityX in the summer! They sent me not one but TWO kits (at no charge!)

    Fulfillments... Are we no longer fulfilled?

    Okay thanks... November 6, huh? I guess that's why I don't have one for Linux+. In my opinion, the junior exams (Tech+ and such) it makes sense... but for senior certs where the exams cost HUNDREDS of dollars? It seems a bit cheap to me. But then again... I stopped getting wallet cards from...

    Fulfillments... Are we no longer fulfilled?

    Hey folks! I did not even notice it when I did not get a fulfillment package for my last couple of certifications. I was telling my students recently (they are doing Tech+ A+ and Network+) that when you earn a new certification CompTIA will mail you a hard copy of the certificate and wallet...

    Next CompTIA A+ TTT series and subsequent voucher(s)?

    Not for nothing, but the current A+ courses and exams (220-1201 & 220-1202) are less than a year old. I wouldn't hold my breath if I were you...

    CIN Sneak Peek: CySA+ V4

    I am registered and excited! I think I passed the CySA+ v2 with three days to spare before it was retired. Now I'm all in!

    Passed Linux+ XK0-006

    You beat me by a mile! However I think there is something to be said for someone who once had trouble understanding octal permissions scoring 777 on this one! ;)

    New link to the CompTIA IT Certifications Roadmap

    I have to ask... based on the link NOT being at *.comptia.org, is this the official page? I am happy with it, but I would be happier knowing that it was (or was not). Thanks!

    A+ Practice Exam 1201

    Let me start by saying that I think this is an absolutely terrible question. With that said, the contacts and calendars would only sync through Microsoft Outlook, and not through just any old 'corporate communication software.'
