CompTIA Training Courses for Certification
CompTIA A+
The CompTIA A+ certification is the industry standard for computer support technicians. The international, vendor-neutral certification proves competence in areas such as installation, preventative maintenance,
networking, security and troubleshooting. The A+ certified technicians also have excellent customer service and communication skills to work with clients.
 A+ is part of the certification track for corporations such as Microsoft, Hewlett-Packard, Cisco and Novell. Other
technology companies including CompuCom and Ricoh, have made the A+ certification mandatory for their service technicians. More than 700,000 people worldwide have become CompTIA A+ certified since the
program's inception in 1993.
Effective January 2011, Windows 7 content was integrated into the existing CompTIA A+ exams. Our training has been revised to reflect these changes. Also effective in 2011, in order to maintain your CompTIA
certification, you will need to re-certify every three years. Make sure your skills are up to date, with our A+ training on CD or online! This course also fulfills one of the DOD 8570 requirements.
Two exams are necessary to be certified: A+ Essentials, exam code 220-701; and A+ Practical Application, exam code 220-702.

Security+
The CompTIA Security+ certification designates knowledgeable professionals in the field of security, one of the fastest-growing fields in IT. Security threats are increasing in number and

most businesses plan to maintain or increase their investment in security.

organizations that employ CompTIA Security+ certified staff include Booz Allen Hamilton, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Motorola, Symantec, Telstra, Hitachi, Ricoh, Lockheed Martin, Unisys,
Hilton Hotels Corp., General Mills, the U.S. Navy, Army, Air Force and Marines.
Although not a prerequisite, it is recommended that CompTIA Security+ candidates have at
least two years of technical networking experience, with an emphasis on security. The CompTIA Network+ certification is also recommended.
