    Certmaster Learn or Certmaster Perform?

    I'm not sure I'd use Teams for that - probably would defer to Zoom, since it's more platform agnostic than other conference platforms. Plus, the feature set is a mite bit more developed than Meet or Teams. Google Meet is pretty streamlined. MSFT Teams is just very bloaty - shouldn't take near...

    Regarding Tech+ class

    I haven't taught Tech+ since it changed over from ITF+, but the principles are basically the same. The idea is to create an exam that bridges the gap between a computer power user and an entry level IT specialist. The skills are basic - in fact, I took the exam back in 2021, cold turkey, just...

    How to become CTT

    Confirm. CTT+ eligibility ended in 2023, due to the costs of upkeeping on a relatively unpopular certification.

    5380 mins instructional time.

    So, I don't think you can push both Core 1 and Core 2 into one week and have an effective class. In all the time I've taught A+ (disclosure, I have not taught v12), I have never seen both sides taught properly in a week, even in a bootcamp scenario. Perhaps the only way I would suggest it...

    Seeking Suggestions for Enhancing Student Engagement in Security+ Class

    Well, it looks like this has been very well covered. For my contribution to this discussion, I'm going to focus on lecture didactic. Hands on is ALWAYS going to be better for learning, but it's nigh impossible to avoid lecture. One of my favorite things to do when teaching any class, not just...

    You too, Tracey - it's good to see you out here on CIN again...been a while!

    Sec+ Learning Resources

    So, general slide decks for teaching courses are not available through the CIN - you would get those through whomever your content publisher is, your CompTIA Business Development manager if you're using CompTIA content, or you'll have to construct your own, based on your requirements. We don't...

    Cautionary tale for IT professionals

    Can't remember from where I horked the image, but I suppose if you Google "computer repair hourly rate t-shirt", you'll hit about 30 different Etsy sites...

    NEWBIE ROLL CALL: <20 Total Posts Only Reply

    Absolutely, Jackie! Unfortunately, the forum doesn't support pinning posts to the top of the Home Page, so unless explore the subs, they won't know this particular post exists. Glad you found it and gave us a shoutout. I surely hope you heal quickly. I've had a few friends who have had fusion...

    Regarding latest pentest+ course

    Speak into that more - when you say 'properly balanced' and your thoughts on it, I'd ask for some details...?

    Hardware Labs

    Are you talking about the CompTIA Perform Network+? If so, perhaps you might start by providing some feedback, yourself...what have you heard?

    Do we have a Sub Forum For CloudNetX?

    I don't think there is a forum for CNX - and since the platform is in a transitional state, my guess is that we won't see one here. Not sure when the new platform is scheduled, but that's my guess. /r

    Why has CompTIA no Exam Question Feedback Button during Exam?

    I encountered a question on the DataSys+ a few weeks ago that had erroneous information as well. I looked for the feedback and didn't see one. Maybe that's only for beta exams now? /r

    Credential Value index

    I go back to my previous statement - "there are no silver bullets". There is no *one thing* that you can do that will write you a golden ticket to the chocolate factory. No cert, no degree, not a single one is your Ticket to Ride. It's always going to be an amalgam of certificates...

    Are Project+ and Server+ changing from "good for life" to CE certifications?

    I doubt we'll see a "ProjectX" - mostly because it would collide heavily with the PMI certs. People might assume it's on par with the PMP. I know Server+ has teetered on the edge of "stay or go". Basically, it's there to fill in that role for on-prem environments - maybe dipping its toes in...
