Having never seen the XK0-004 material, I'm not sure what the comparison would look like. However, I just went though the first few pages of the Applied Lab for lesson 6 and didn't have any issues with it. The symbolic link seemed to work and grade fine as well. I also believe that the...

I don’t have the answer to your question. I have never seen a key for the labs, but I am interested which lab you are referring to. Can you provide some data? Thanks! Jeremiah

2022: CTT, A+, ITF, Server, and Linux. On the plate for 2023: Cloud, Cloud Essentials, Project, and Data. That will complete the possible CompTIA certs unless something gets added (2021 included Net, Sec, CySA, PenTest, and CASP).

I had CASP a year ago and it has certainly been awesome and of course was not an easy cert. I just went back and got ITF+ because it was straight forward and because I will be teaching a curriculum that includes it. So, it’s easier just to have the cert than try to explain why all the other...

Yes to what everyone else said…and, any CompTIA exam that has PBQs requires time management and a test plan. There are several schools of though about when to do the PBQs in the exam time but they are all consistent in stating that time management is critical. And don’t leave any answers blank.

There are some additional requirements to get vouchers, one of which is generally completing the videos within a couple of weeks of when the live TTT sessions occurred. Steven Schneiter is the correct POC who can clarify the requirements to receive a voucher.

Jill, You are exactly right. There was no room to do anything other than the standard process. The upload of the photos of my room would not work (Pearson Vue issue) and they couldn’t accept the photos any other way.

After a bad Pearson Vue home test, I now have a policy of going to an exam center for every test and I recommend so for all of my students. For me, the problem was on the Pearson Vue side and I tried rescheduling my exam 5 times over two days and it never worked. And yes, there was a lot of...

I often make it a point to tell students that the instructions that come with the lab are important, and they definitely should do those, but not to forget that the labs are also VMs that they can experiment with in almost any way. As instructors we can think outside the box and demonstrate...

Awesome opportunity! Wish I was closer to Texas…or that Texas was bigger…

Intimidating questions…and three of them… The CEO used the age old technique of “smoking out a rat”. Maybe you could call it “baiting and switching”. …fahgetaboutit…

@Rick Butler @Stephen Schneiter Any thoughts here gentlemen? (On the tech side, not the ‘don’t wait until the last minute to do your homework side’. Haha. Jagger is a great instructor with an awesome last name: Coffey. Delicious coffee.

Give them the tools, understanding, and curiosity to learn on their own. ...of course I agree with the importance of objectives, classroom management, content, content delivery, etc, but those are the givens (the tangibles that they are paying for). There are also the intangibles which can...

What a wonderful opportunity. I have sent my information as requested. Thank you!

....Collision Avoidance..... hahaha

I think this is a good place to stay in the know. What I have noticed in teaching different CompTIA courses is that as the courses update, the terms the courses use update (ie, blacklist/whitelist -> block/accept, DMZ -> screened subnet, etc). These terms are usually changed as soon as the...

Thank you for asking that question Lee, as I have been working through the Network+ 008 instructor guide lately, I have noticed a few spelling errors. While I know these are small things, it takes away from the overall presentation of the product. Great question.

That is great data and you are right, there are a lot of factors that go into how well a student performs and the main factor that I stress with all my students is that the bulk of the internalizing and learning will take place on their time (away from class). I will present the material, labs...

Keeping a record by email is certainly important. Thank you for pointing that out. My process is to start with a phone call and introduce myself to new students and learn about their goals, etc. I then follow up with an email summarizing everything we talked about and providing my initial...
