Purchasing CompTIA vouchers for your college?

[Hemlock]

How is everyone doing this now?
In years past, there was an online .pdf form that we could fill out with voucher information, and credit card payment details.
A few business days later we would receive the vouchers via email.
This seems to have changed over the last year.
Are your students using the compTIA store to purchase the vouchers? or does your school bulk buy them?

Thanks!

Both,

Students can use the academic store and receive a discount. When logging in, we have an academic partner role that offers the discounted pricing for bulk orders.

Right now, we are mostly using the students' purchasing from the academic store.

Vouchers are included in tuition at my college, there is no bulk discount for us, but we purchase using academic pricing and keep a few on hand for each certification and restock as needed.

Yes, there is no bulk discount. I'm simply referring to and questioning about how schools that teach to CompTIA certifications purchase vouchers for their students.
As an example... in past years, we used the online form and would buy (let's say) five A+ vouchers with the academy discount.
This process seems to be gone.

I've sent an email to academy @ comptia.org hoping to hear back on how to proceed on purchasing vouchers.

This is actually a good suggestion. I think I'll make this suggestion to the board at my college.

If your account at store.comptia.org doesn't show the academic pricing, (a lot of people have this issue) what most here seem to be doing is placing an order with their rep to get the correct price. Please let us know if the email you sent bears fruit!

I haven't heard anything back yet from the email I've sent to [email protected]
Is there anyway to tell who my rep is? And perhaps contact them directly?
I believe that person may have changed a few times over the years and so I'm not sure who it is now.
We've been an academy partner for close to 20 years.
Or if anyone knows who the rep is for Western Canada, I would super appreciate a contact name and email.

I suggest sending this request directly to @Stephen Schneiter and he may be able to assist you in determining your CompTIA rep.

I found out the name of our rep!
He responded and cc'd another person who is supposed to help with my inquiry.
