    A+ 12 series TTT

    Lynn did do a good job with it (for as much as I got to see during the TTT), for sure.

    Good to see you out here on CIN, Katie.

    New CompTIA web site launch

    Ahh... yes. So in order to participate in the CE program to renew certs, as opposed to taking a test, you have to pay dues. That, I think you know about. My guess is that the tokens are a way to buy up a bunch of CE fees in order to pay them off in bulk and or spread them between CEs that you...

    New CompTIA web site launch

    701 launched Nov 2023 and 601 retired out, July 2024. Looks like the info for the certification is here.

    No Tech+ ID card?

    Well, if you have a tall enough stack, glue them together, drill a whole through the center, thread a power cable through them and make a lamp. I considered doing this with a stack of old America Online trial CD's I had back in the day... https://www.instructables.com/Recycled-CDs-Lamp/

    2025 NICE Conference and Expo

    Good luck with your presentation, @Stephen Schneiter! Just a little bit out of range today or I might have made the trip to come up from the Springs. /r

    No Tech+ ID card?

    Heh..usually, whatever I get, I stuff into a binder, put on my shelf, and there it remains. The only card I carry anymore is the first A+ card...which may not be legible anymore. LOL

    CompTIA A+ Subject Matter Experts Needed

    If by SME, we're not referring to those that are part of the CompTIA Subject Matter Expert program, I would agree. But apart from that, as long as the content isn't compromising the content of an exam, I'd say this is a good request for any current instructor. /r

    New cert: SecOT+

    Speak for yourself, mate. I hit the gym three times a week. While I'm not as fast on my feet as I used to be when I was young and running 12 min two milers for the Army, I can still hold my own. Speaking of which, today's a gym day and the pool awaits - a new part of my routine.

    New cert: SecOT+

    I'm a hard floor, tile kinda guy. I wear western boots, so they sound so much nicer when slowly, ominously walking across the room.

    Xpert Series - DataX and CloudNetX

    See, I could see DataX renewing these two. Meanwhile, not so much here - since CloudNetX is more of an amalgam of cloud and networking. Like a Venn diagram, there's a good amount of material in Cloud+ and Network+ that would not come out in CloudNetX from what I can determine.

    Good Day Poeple I have a problem of which I hope one of you poeple can help

    I used to use CyberVista for a while. Their questions weren't quite certification grade in the years we used them. I would say they are more on par with CompTIA's review questions from Learn and Labs, in terms of difficulty. Good for ramping up, but not so great if trying to evaluate for test...

    Good Day Poeple I have a problem of which I hope one of you poeple can help

    So, it sounds like you're looking for practice testing for these exams, yes? There would seem to be a wide range of practice testing options out there. Is there something you're specifically wanting? Because it would seem that all you might need is something like CertMaster Practice or maybe a...

    Pearsonvue test center? You got one?

    Our college has an on-prem PearsonVUE testing center for testing - not just for our computer programs, but for our AMT medical programs as well. Our test center is not available to the public, meaning you can't schedule through the web for our site - you have to contact our librarian who would...
