Nice!

Anyone remember the long-retired Mobility+ certification back in the days of BlackBerry and the rise of Exchange ActiveSync?

Post-secondary college here!

Yes - a number of our campuses run a Pearson VUE testing center. They have a dedicated test center administrator, and yes, we are paid for hosting and administering exams (otherwise we wouldn't do it).

In a physical lab, provisioning a bare metal server (e.g., with Proxmox) and configuring iDRAC or iLO is a valuable skill for IT students. If, however, your students could benefit from building some upper body strength, I suggest: https://www.cloudfest.com/world-server-throwing-championship

Ditto here - more hybrid cloud-specific design and technology topics for me too that I didn't notice on Network+ or Cloud+ (hence the theme I approached the CloudNetX TTT with).

100% agree with all of this! First and foremost should be teaching a skill or topic area, with an end goal of having students feel confident in their practical abilities in that skill or topic area. It's a bad thing if people skip that and just focus on getting certified (remember the days of...

Obviously, I had to like this post! :) I wholeheartedly agree with everything mentioned in this thread - we choose courseware/textbooks at our college based on content and value. As a result, most of the courses that have an associated CompTIA certification attached to them use materials from...
