    CIN 2026 Webinars Feedback Wanted

    @Stephen Schneiter I honestly wonder sometimes with CompTIA planning teams. Instead of adding certifications for the sake of adding them. Focus down on the core certifications that are bread and butter and make them more interactive and hands-on over the multiple choice modalties. Opening up...

    OpenClaw or Agentic AI Trainers

    I have been tossing this idea around in my head after spending some time with sites like boot.dev and KodeKloud. I am looking for ways to more interactively train students.

    Fulfillments... Are we no longer fulfilled?

    Kind of makes sense from a cost cutting stand point, but wasn't CompTIA just purchased by a company? Their going to nickle and dime little stuff more than likely going forward.

    Inquiry About Becoming a CompTIA Instructor

    Preach! I have had a number of younger folks new or at mid level in industry ask me about what cloud or Cybersecurity certifications they need. They expect some glorious answer, but after 25 years, I only study and focus on what applies to me at my current job or work or what I specifically will...
