    Do CIN Members Get Discounts on CE Renewal Resources (e.g., Security+ CertMaster CE)?

    I can pretty much say that CIN members are not accorded discounts on CertMaster. Those kinds of things would be negotiated through the Partner program. You'll probably want to connect with your Business Development Manager for information on that.

    DataX is renamed DataAI

    Yeah, changing the name of certifications over and over and over, to me, is just confusing for people who actually need to understand what the certification is about.

    Spot on. Also, @fredjclaus, keep an eye here in the CIN for Sneak Peeks and Train the Trainer webinars - they give you a look at upcoming content from CompTIA as it's coming out. Remember that with the general six month overlap between certification versions, you should have plenty of time to...

    CompTIA Tech +🎉

    I took that one last back in 2021, just as a cold turkey, no studying - didn't get a perfect score, so that underscores this point...always stuff to learn.

    Has the Official CompTIA Instructor/Student Guide eBook been replaced by CompTIA CertMaster Study?

    I've talked to a couple other authors and providers out there - and they're actually quite alright with that. :)

    Holding AI Accountable

    Reasonable, to me, is one of these very subjective terms that seems to get pulled back and forth, based on monetary stake. Yes, there are weirdos out there who actually *like* cold coffee, but I'm at least smart enough to not jam a screwdriver in my eye and think it's Craftsman's fault if I do...
