Hello friends, ,there seem to be progress in the CompTIA pricing model updates. got a mail this morning and below is an excerpt - what do you think?
New Web Store - We're completely reinventing our online store to make it much easier for you to find all the items you value. No longer will you have to look in multiple places to find all things A+, Network+ or other titles. All vouchers, training and continuing education will all be grouped in a logical way on a single page. In addition, you won't need to contact your account executive to ensure the best possible pricing. Instead you simply create a CompTIA account and login, browse, and then check out using the best payment option for you!
The above experience launches for North American customers in June 2025, after which we will focus on the migration of our Non-North American customers to the seamless web and ecommerce experience in early Q4 2025.
Launching Essential Series - This new series is meant to provide tech training for non-tech people. Think AI skills for marketing, data analytics for finance, cyber for logistics and more! We're kicking this off with AI Essentials, Soft Skills and Business Essentials, and we're working on Data and Project Essentials.
SecAI+ - CompTIA is actively working on the first vendor-neutral AI certification focused on cybersecurity. This is the first Expansion product which is meant to sit on top of Security+, CySA+, or PenTest+. It will cover all things AI cyber related. Look for this to hit the market early 2026.
SecOT+ - Work is soon to begin on a new certification focusing on the operational technology (OT) market covering compliance and risk assessment and cyber, compliance and regulatory frameworks, hardening techniques and secure configurations, integrating and securing legacy systems.
Updated Pricing - As of the beginning of June, we'll also be updating our prices after nearly 18 months without a price change. In the process, we're introducing Loyalty Pricing for customers who purchased in 2024. The model provides a level of discounting customers have come to expect on the items they've purchased most often. We also encourage you to browse some of the items you've never purchased before. We think you'll find the prices to be very attractive.
From June, Loyalty customers will have access to an interim store, unlocking access to custom pricing and ensuring an efficient ordering process.
