Excellent remark. You have the play the cards you are dealt. I've taught traditional and non-traditional students in higher education and proprietary schools. From a focus standpoint, you have to meet them where they're at. For me, it asking about their majors or interest in the IT field...

Congrats

Reach out to colleges in your area. Their Workforce Development departments will have instructor postings for upcoming classes.

I agree with this perspective. There is an increase in quantity, but the quality is starting to fray. The separation of the training group from the certification group is evident of that. To use the business analogy, where are the 'bolt-ons' that enhance the business. Simply eliminating...

@Stephen Schneiter , thanks for the information. No apologies for the delay is needed.

Hello CINers, What is the process to contact your college's respective CompTIA rep? I am covering a last minute class at my college. Thanks in Advance Brandon Groves

I've taught A+ (Cores 1 & 2), Network+,Security+ & Cloud+,. I'm certified in A+, Net+,Security+ & Cloud+. I usually teach Net+ and Sec+ about 2-3 times a year. I just wrapped up a Net+ course last week. I finished a Sec+ course in July.

Hi @Stephen Schneiter , thank you for the information.

Hello, Where can I find CompTIA associates who work with colleges. I'm an instructor with Rowan College of Gloucester County in NJ. Im having an issue with my students registering on the Certmaster platform. Any assistance would be beneficial. Thanks, Brandon Groves

Thank you @Rick Butler , always there for assistance.

@Stephen Schneiter, any updates regarding the PenTest voucher distribution? Thanks.

Is there a way an instructor can monitor a student's work with in CertMaster Learn and Lab? Does either program allow for an integration with a LMS? TIA.

I'm in the boat as you.

Hello, When will the vouchers from attending the PenTest TTT be disbursed? Thanks.

I experienced the same issues with the recent PenTest TTT sessions.

Good points from @Rick Butler . I'll speak from an empirical and anecdotal views. I'll preface my remarks that I have done both types of institutions referenced in this thread. For the former, there are numerous examples of for-profits who have gone 'belly-up' for poor practices and questionable...

Not to knock on @Rick Butler . Some for-profit schools have tainted the pool for others in that field. The same can be applied public and private non-profit institutions. The tuition is usually higher, but doesn't necessarily reflect a higher or better education. One example would be see the...

@Sean Ellars ,I don't disagree that they're federal employees. The questionable area is the type of employee. As in other areas, all employees don't enjoy the same level of access as others. If a 'one size fits all approach' is being applied, as you imply. The current predicamen should be...

With respect to the 'political' aspects, it's par for the course. As instructors and IT professionals, we deal with the 'political' aspects. We need to state and enforce the guardrails as it relates to training.

@Sean Ellars , i think you're making an untenable connection. If the current DOGE members were subjected to the same background checks and standards as regular government employees or contractor. Then i would agree with you're supposition. @Greg Childers makes a very salient point, this is not a...
