    Pacing Course Excel Doc for Net+, Sec+?

    I know what you mean. A few months ago I had a group from the military learning SecurityX and I was told they expected a 100% pass rate. I told the coordinator at the end of the first day that I would gladly point out which students would (or should) pass the exam, and the 50% who did not have...

    Here is hoping and praying to whoever you pray to that you don't die over Net+/Sec+ :) Please let us know if your rep does provide :)

    Pacing Course Excel Doc for Net+, Sec+?

    I really do empathize; I understand your frustrations, and while I know the documents are available (I just checked Security+), I also know that we as instructors are not allowed to share CompTIA's intellectual property with others. With that said, if you were to look for a CompTIA support email...

    Pacing Course Excel Doc for Net+, Sec+?

    Those documents are available when you purchase (or the learning org purchases for you) the Instructor material. Without that it would be a violation for anyone to share it with you. As an aside, I used to be afraid to ask the training orgs that hired me for the Instructor Material. Coming from...

    I did it!

    While I spend most of my time teaching cybersecurity, most people know me as a Microsoft guy. I was a Microsoft MVP, a Technology Evangelist with Microsoft Canada, and a Fast Track Engineer with Microsoft (both as a contractor). I have probably delivered a thousand lectures on Microsoft...

    Hi Katie! I would be delighted. What do you need from me? :)

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    I completely agree! I have been asked to take the newest version of an exam once, but when I told the training provider (who is known for not paying very well) that my certs were current, and I would only take the new exam if they provided me a voucher, they demurred. With that said, you have...

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    For the first couple of years I framed my certs. I eventually threw them out. I also want to learn what is useful, but the reality is a lot of companies want us to hold certifications for the classes we teach.

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    Thank you! Yes, I have failed Microsoft a lot, VMware a couple of times (renewals only)... but never a CompTIA, ISC2, or CSA exam. As for keeping records... how could I not? It is so important to measuring one's progression :)

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    In my career I have sat 114 exams, and have passed 78 of them. (In the early days when I was getting free vouchers from Microsoft I failed a lot... my current streak since November 2017 is 29 passed, 3 failed (two of which I'd already passed but tried a new beta version, the other I failed on...

    Monitoring Students

    Hey folks! When I use the LODS (Skillable) labs I can easily monitor my students lab progress or watch their screens. Is there a way to do that from the CompTIA Learning Platform? I don't see it. Please advise!

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    Jason you know I have always had great respect for you. I didn't have nearly enough time to study so I mostly went through the courseware and the labs, but had I thought of it ahead of time... YOU MAN!!!

    Linux+ XK0-006 vs. 005...?

    I've now passed 77 exams, but please remember that until a few years ago I was nearly exclusively a Microsoft guy. Yes, I played with Linux 25 years ago, and I use Kali and Parrot for cybersecurity stuff... but I never managed the disks or or users or containers or users (I mean managing users...
