    Share slides with students

    I highly tweak the slides, but they start out as the ones from CompTIA. We use the CertMaster Learn plus Labs materials so they follow right along with their assignments. I provide a PDF version, not the actual PPTX versions. I make sure to add on the first slide that they were edited by me so...

    RFP Assistance - Missing a couple of Presentation Planners

    Hello! I'm a Program Manager for a training provider and CompTIA Partner and we are submitting a RFP, that of course is due tomorrow. The RFP requests some sample class schedules. We are basing them off the Presentation Planners that are in the Instructor Materials. Problem I can't access the...

    PPT slides of security+ 601 are needed

    Why don't you reach out to your academic or business partner to provide them for you? Or the organization you are teaching for? That is normally how they are provided. 601 materials are still available since the exam will not retire until next year.

    Is a new A+ Cert needed to train?

    I am of the mind that I won't teach what I haven't taken. So, I won't teach a version of the exam that I have not taken. I want to be able to tell the students "When I took the exam", "In the previous version of the exam", etc. How to take the exam has changed, just being familiar with the...

    Upcoming CompTIA Certification Launches and CIN Webinars

    HA HA! You are funny @Stephen Schneiter! PenTest+ is out of my wheelhouse for sure. ITF+ (or soon-to-be Tech+) is more my speed. LOL, I teach ITF+ and A+ regularly, with a smattering of Network+ and Security+. I am mainly a Technical Program Manager now and have minions to teach. I still love...

    Upcoming CompTIA Certification Launches and CIN Webinars

    Didn't we just do PenTest+?! Is it time for it again already? Thanks for the update @Stephen Schneiter ! You are fantastic and appreciated as always. No other certification governing body supports its trainers and partners like CompTIA does. Is there any more talk about ITF+ or...

    One CIN human with multiple email addresses

    I'm not sure what the proper method is for this. My CIN account is under my personal email address, my CompTIA account where my certifications are is under my personal email, my instructor resources are under a secondary personal email, and my CompTIA Partner account is under my work email. I've...

    how to apply exemption for Comptia Trainer ?

    Are you trying to get instructor access to CertMaster materials? If so, that would be done through your CompTIA Partner. They can assign you materials.

    Assessments

    You haven't taken a CompTIA exam yet? Taking their exams is its own skill in addition to studying and knowing the material. Beware of "choose the best" when none of the choices are the best, all the choices suck depending on the situation, and you don't have all the information you need to...

    Including Certification Testing in Curriculum

    I work for a commercial training provider, not an academic. We provide training associated with a couple of state government-funded programs. The biggest thing we have in place is that there are tasks or homework to earn their exam vouchers. They are not just provided to them. Generally, the...

    CTT+ Virtual Classroom Trainer Recording Requirements

    Thanks! Just checked the cttsubmission site and I passed. It definitely didn't take the 2-3 weeks like they said to expect. Now we know the screen capture method works and is acceptable. Good luck @Avery Ashley !!!

    CTT+ Virtual Classroom Trainer Recording Requirements

    Zoom saves the chat - but as a separate text file. It is not visible in the recording. We use Zoom everyday for training classes. I submitted my recording and paperwork yesterday. I had a second laptop that I signed into the Zoom meeting with. From that second laptop, I recorded the entire...

    CTT+ Virtual Classroom Trainer Recording Requirements

    I'm setting up to do my recording in 2 days. From my understanding, the chat needs to be there. I am using Zoom, and planning on using a screen capture program on another computer to do the recording as opposed to using Zoom's built-in recording feature. Zoom captures the chat - but as a...

    CYSA 003 Resources for Instructors

    I was just wondering the same thing. I watched the sessions on demand and didn't hear it said.

    Access Key has Expired

    I'd contact your Business Development Manager like @Rick Butler suggested. It says that it must be activated by July 14, so it would have needed to be activated before today. The codes must be like Cinderella's carriage that turns back into a pumpkin at midnight.

    CompTIA Site

    I tried to reschedule an exam last night and couldn't. Not sure if it is an issue with PearsonVue or CompTIA but I still can't. I log in and the little wheel just spins and spins and nothing happens. I tried a different web browser and a different computer, still didn't work.

    How much time train Security+?

    I do it in 40 hours of lecture only, labs take another 20 or so hours like @Gregory Childers said. Doesn't matter if it is a single 40-hour week, or 40 hours spread over 8 weeks.
