Mapping CompTIA to Apprenticeship’s can give industrial insights to academic qualifications but how many of you do this?
CompTIA in Apprenticeships

I map it, CompTIA + apprentceships = job-ready talent… In addition to the question, how many of you are actually doing it, or just mapping it emotionally on LinkedIn?.......... At least my hashtags are certified:

What exactly do you mean by "mapping comptia to apprenticeship"?
You're asking us if any of us do it, but I don't really understand what "it" is.

All CompTIA certifications are mapped to a job role, not apprenticeships. The exam development process starts out with a Job Task Analysis (JTA) that's mapped to a job role. From that JTA, the exam objectives are built.
Apprenticeships are mapped to CompTIA not the other way round
I still don't understand what you mean by an "apprenticeship mapping to CompTIA".
To me an apprenticeship is like an internship or just any other job. Jobs aren't aligned to specific certifications or educations, it's the other way around: an education should prepare you for performing well in a role, task or job.
It sounds like you're asking for "A+ apprenticeship" or "Pentest+ apprenticeship", but that feels backwards to me. Companies don't want to hire junior, entry-level personnel to prepare for a certification, they want to hire them for a role. So a "pentesting intern" is something I've seen, just like a "helpdesk intern".
Thank you for you insight but you do not see the bigger picture. A cybersecurity apprenticeship would start with tech+ then A+ to cover networking CCNP or Network+ then Security+ perhaps then CySA or Pentest. Mapping multiple vendor exams to an apprenticeship not just one
What you describe I associate with a bootcamp; a commercial product.
In most parts of the world that I'm familiar with, an apprenticeship is something you do as fulltime employee of a company; you're an apprentice. Your days are either fulltime work under someone who guides and trains you, or parttime work and parttime schooling. In my experience these apprenticeships are created by employers, working together with an educational institution of your choice.

Quoting Wikipedia, I realise that you might think of something completely different when you say "apprenticeship".
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think you are asking : "how many of you work with companies who run an apprenticeship program and how many of those use one of more CompTIA certifications as part of that program?"
Making someone study for and pass five CompTIA certifications is "onboarding" for your customers?
Surprisingly, yes. I've assisted on onboarding programs for multiple companies where I was required to teach certification courses for interns in order to help them prepare for passing the exams.Making someone study for and pass five CompTIA certifications is "onboarding" for your customers?
