Previous CompTIA instructor manuals had margin notes showing where each slide fits into the topics. For example, the Security+ SY0-701 instructor manual does a good job of listing almost every slide in the margin notes. In the CySA+ (CS0-003) instructor manual, starting with Lesson 6, the margin notes say “Show slide(s)”, but not when to show each slide. For example:

Lesson 6 has 20 content slides. Only 10 are noted in the instructor manual. Margin notes in this lesson are missing PPT slide numbers: 5,6,8,9,11,12,18,19,20,21

Lesson 7 has 20 content slides. Only 4 are noted in the instructor manual. Margin notes in this lesson are missing PPT slide numbers: 5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,1516,17,18,20,21,22, and 23.

Lesson 8 has 31 content slides. Only 12 are noted in the instructor manual. Margin notes in this lesson are missing PPT slide numbers: 5,6,7,8,9,10,12,13,14,15,16,17,25,26, and 27.

If course materials aren't quality checked and fixed during development, this work has to be done by each instructor. I corrected these and other omissions in my copy of the manual. I would share my corrected manual with other instructors, however I don't think that is allowed.
