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

    I've been a CIN member for five years, and I've never seen a CIN-specific discount program. We do have access to TTT webinars, which typically include an exam voucher, but that's about it.

    DataX is renamed DataAI

    Things like this make me believe that the Marketing division is running CompTIA these days. All the tech folks left to be part of the Global Technology Industry Association (GTIA).

    DataX is renamed DataAI

    We're living in an oversaturated hype era of AI. And a lot of it is filled with errors.

    DataX is renamed DataAI

    How to become a CompTIA certified Instructor ?

    There is no such distinction as a CompTIA certified Instructor. It's strongly recommended that you pass the certification exam for the CompTIA course you will be teaching, but there is no official designation of CompTIA-certified instructor. CompTIA had a Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+)...

    CompTIA A+ 1201 and 1202 passed

    Has the Official CompTIA Instructor/Student Guide eBook been replaced by CompTIA CertMaster Study?

    That's too bad because most students don't like CertMaster at all. CompTIA is pushing people towards other providers.
