New CompTIA A+ logo update

[Bruce Weaver]

Hi fellow CIN'ers. I thought I'd comment on the fact that I just saw a student pass the A+ Core 1 exam and the logo on his printout has been completely redesigned and I have been asked by students about it. I haven't yet been able to find anything official from CompTIA on this.
The new logo is redesigned and states "CompTIA A+ Certification Plus Series" We are talking about the official score report, not the logo available after finishing Core 1 & 2.

Otherwise everything is the same, but if anyone has information on this I would love to know more if it is just the score report changing or all of the logos.

I think this has to do with two things. First, next year, we're supposed to see the 1200 series of the A+ Core exams. But the second is what has been nicknamed the "underscore" series. This was talked about at the 2023 and 2024 Summits.

Of course, I think this is all contingent on decisions made to turn CompTIA into a for-profit entity. I hope they keep on with that plan.

I think that's what you're seeing - that the inclusion of those underscore add-ons and extension certs are part of the A+ Plus Series now.

That's my theory, anyway.

Also had some students yesterday.........It might be a fresh branding initiative to set the certification apart in a more contemporary manner. Hopefully, CompTIA will provide clarification shortly!
