    After passing exam

    Assuming you mean the CompTIA certification exam, no, there is no way for you to know that unless the test candidate actually tells you that. Even test centers in general don't get to see this information - only who has tested and what exam. As for unenrolling students, I would talk to your...

    CompTIA Partner Summit - Save the Date!!

    Well, fortune smiled and I'll be able to make Summit this year. Very thankful for this, as it has been a very hard year for me professionally, so getting back to see the good folks at Summit will be a major highlight. Summit was not broadcasted last year and I would probably guess it won't be...

    How do you display your student's certs?

    One thing I used to do is have students take a photo next to the CompTIA banners with their certificates. I ran a blog and would post them on that, so folks could see as they earned them. Our school now has a big sign that says "I DID IT!" with the cert title, which gets a photo and whisked...

    Labsim - CertMaster Perform

    Hey Lyn: I am told that these materials are under development and we should see them, forthwith. One of the things that CompTIA started doing is creating a window by which materials were launched as they are developed. I'm pretty sure we'll see them soon. :) /r

    how to get online lab for instuctor ?

    Online labs...for what product? If you're referring to the labs for the Network+ 009 TTT, the instructions for those are in the Resources area. For something else (seeing you posted this in the Linux+ forum), you'll want to connect with your CompTIA Business Representative and see what those...

    Looking for an Instructor

    Thanks for your support. CIN has a lot of great things to offer folks. If we can get people engaging and part of the conversation, there's a lot we can do to help ourselves and the industry along. /r

    Labsim - CertMaster Perform

    I do have one question - do we not have access to the older CM materials, such as the Instructor/Student Guides, the transition guide, and some of the other helpful resources from previous iterations of CertMaster? Or will CM Perform be the textbook replacement as well?

    CompTIA Tech+

    That is really what it comes down to - having skills, yes definitely important. But the creds also can create the atmosphere of trust from the get-go. When a student walks into a learning environment, they have no idea what that instructor knows or doesn't know; there's no way to create that...

    Pearson Disability Accommodation Problems

    Well, I don't believe anyone would advocate to having someone riding side saddle that could be seen as assisting in the content assessment of a cert exam, so it's a sticky wicket to have a helper in the room, particularly trying to maintain the testing integrity. Very good information to know...

    Pearson Disability Accommodation Problems

    So, the OP and others expressed an issue with getting this approved - having difficulty just getting a response. What was that experience like?

    CompTIA Tech+

    Yeah, I get that. I'm not sure if I'd take it, myself, even though I am leading projects as well. Maybe some personal projects you can lead...build a neighborhood full of birdhouses or something...lol

    CompTIA Tech+

    And that would make perfect sense, particularly for CompTIA branded adjuncts. Thank you for comfirming. But like before, it does come down to the individual institution. If they are willing to take a CCNA, for example, and put them up to teach Net+, I probably would have no problem with the...

    CompTIA Tech+

    Actually, no it is not. CompTIA has never required instructors or providers to have certifications for the things that they teach. It's suggested that folks have them - but that onus comes from credibility. In other words, it doesn't look good for a school/training center to have uncertified...
