Some thing bugs now about the CERTs now when you write the new exam I wrote 220=1201 220 1202 all these guys have done is increase the date I feel it should have a model number on certificate. It is hard to prove to clients you are training their guys on the latest Certs.

It's easy to prove which version you've passed. It's in your online CompTIA transcript, which you can share with clients or employers.
Although, I still find it completely ridiculous that clients and employers ask which version I've passed for various CompTIA exams. I've passed six different Security+ exams, five different Network+ exams, four different A+ exams, three different CySA+ exams, two different Cloud+ exams, two different Project+ exams, and two different Tech+ exams. And most of my certs are active through 2028 and beyond because of CEUs.
Funny, they never ask me if I have the current CISSP, CISM, CAPM, or CCSK, even though every one of them undergoes version changes.
I'm done. From now on, I'm staying current with CEUs. I'm done retaking exams just because the version changed. I've been taking CompTIA exams for 22 years and they change maybe 10%-15% from one version to the next. Most of the topics in the current versions of A+/Net+/Sec+ were covered on versions that I took 20 years ago. I don't even study when I retest. I just get a voucher and go take the exam and pass it. BECAUSE I'VE ALREADY PASSED A PREVIOUS VERSION. It's not like I suddenly forgot everything since the last one.
Does anyone have a legitimate reason why we should continue to retake CompTIA exams over and over, if we're already staying current with CEUs. Clients and employers don't ask for the latest version of any ISC2, ISACA, OffSec, EC-Council, or GIAC exams, but they insist on doing it for CompTIA exams.
Why?
