    Completed All A+ Core 2 Train the Trainer Webinar Videos

    I hope you enjoyed them! I caught a lot of it, myself. (work demands kept me from doing the entire series...)

    Network+ N10-009 CompTIA certification! Claim your digital badge

    The codes generally last for about six months after issue - I call it motivation not to sit around and wait. ;)

    Here are the links to the previous sessions - You'll still have to register for them if you haven't already, but if you need to catch up, these should work. Session 1 Session 2 Session 3 Session 4 Session 5 Session 6

    CEU's for Network+

    Well, unless it's something like Cloud+ or something...

    Remote control of Labs

    I don't think there is a native function for this. You'd have to coordinate a third-party solution, perhaps using Teams or Zoom that allows for a screen share.

    Exam

    As an additional resource, here's my TTT for the Server+ 005. Give it a watch and see if it helps!

    LOST ACCESS TO OLD EMAIL

    You'll want to reach out to CompTIA support for those issues.

    CompTia NW+ Instructor needed.

    You certainly can. When you post these, it's a good idea if it's an online or on-ground engagement. /r

    Network+ Labs : help

    Hey Samar: If it were me doing it, I'd probably get my hands on a lab manual from a publisher like Cengage. Even an older one might be valuable to build your own hands-on lab environment. /r

    3rd Annual CertOber - CompTIA Tech+ Training

    Sounds like a great event!

    CompTIA A+ ITProTV

    I heard something about ITProTV getting shut down shortly after they were acquired by ACI, laying off their people and closing the studios. So, unfortunately, there's nothing to 'take for a spin' now, at least for that. /r

    CompTIA TTT Exam Vouchers

    Question - did you attend these DURING the time that the live seminar was happening, though?

    Linux+ Train the Trainer session 2025-09-09

    I realize that - and I thought I mentioned that in my previous post - which is why I always argued about what it looks like based on what it does.

    Linux+ Train the Trainer session 2025-09-09

    I always debated this point en principio - of whether Hyper-V was a true type 1 hypervisor, because it requires Windows to be loaded as the OS before the hypervisor runs. Now, other folks would say, "Hyper-V is part of the Windows OS", so by extension, makes it Type 1, etc etc. I know MSFT...

    Linux+ Train the Trainer session 2025-09-09

    Overall, I like them both. I've used both and both are great platforms for different reasons. Also, KVM is a good tool for long-term virtualization projects.
