Where to Find Security+ 701 Instructor Guide PDF and PPTs?

Hi everyone,

Was wondering where I can access the PDF for the Instructor Guide and the Official PowerPoint slides for Training.
How do we usually get these materials? Are they provided after enrollment, or do we need to request them separately?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you in advance!
 
The instructor access keys are good for about three months after activating. My code for SecurityX dropped out this past week, so I'm trying a couple other things.

My only gripe about CertMaster is that I'm an audiophile - I learn by hearing and I like to listen to text on mobile, while driving around. Interestingly, I did CASP and Cloud, primarily by audio - had to have a PDF reader for those. For CM, it's much more difficult for audio. Not impossible, but a pain.

I just want to go back to downloadable instructor PDFs and slide decks. Online only access to the training materials is a pain.
I don't think we'll see that from CompTIA, given their current trajectory with CertMaster products. And that's okay to me, because it gives the other publishers and authors a great opportunity to put their materials in the hands of learners and instructors. I can think of two, here on CIN, even, that would find an opportunity there.

It means that CompTIA will lose all training business to others and will only provide certifications. CompTIA's official curriculum has been sliding for a couple of decades, but the current format may kill it off entirely.

I don't know if that's the case; there's too much revenue to be had in subscription-based training. And there are folks out there that think CertMaster is great, particularly with the incorporations of LabSim's materials. I know there was a lot of concern among the authors and content producers that CompTIA was forcing them out of the market.

I'm just glad to see that there is a vibrant market where there are options for different learning styles.
