If you're preparing to take the exam to attain your CompTIA Security+ certification, Varsity Tutors can help give you a boost with a Pittsburgh CompTIA Security+ certification class. You'll get access to an online classroom where you'll receive instruction from a qualified teacher and work alongside your fellow IT security professionals. A CompTIA Security+ certificate can show employers that you're committed to your work in IT network and operational security, lending some extra credence to your ability to identify and address security incidents. This can potentially assist you in negotiating raises or promotions, and can even open up new job opportunities. The exam stands between you and your certification, so taking a prep class can be a way to invest in your career.
The CompTIA Security+ certification exam lasts 90 minutes and can include up to 90 questions. You'll be tested on many aspects of IT security work, and you'll have to demonstrate an ability to analyze threats and respond with the appropriate mitigation methods, install and configure secure applications, networks, and devices; detect compromises and perform penetration testing and vulnerability scans, configure identity and access services, and operate with an understanding of relevant laws and regulations. There aren't any strict requirements that you'll have to meet before you become certified, but it's highly recommended that you already hold a CompTIA Network+ certificate and have at least two years working in a security-oriented IT administrator role.
As the CompTIA Security+ certification is quite specialized, if you're getting ready to take the examination, you're likely already skilled in your field. However, the test is comprehensive and can cover knowledge that you may not have had the chance to apply in a hands-on capacity in the course of your career. This is where Pittsburgh CompTIA Security+ certification training can be valuable. Your expert instructor can give you insight into the structure of the test and help you understand what material you should be reviewing. They can give lectures, go over sample questions and scenarios, and guide the class in group discussion. Studying with other security professionals can be a great way to review, as you'll be able to draw upon the diverse experiences of your classmates, aiding you in developing a more well-rounded understanding of IT security than you might be able to in solo study. Sharing your own skill with the class can help you reinforce your existing skills as well, and collaborative work of this type has been shown to improve learning outcomes. You'll also be able to reserve private time with your instructor, so you can get one-on-one feedback on subjects that you may be struggling with.
As Pittsburgh CompTIA Security+ certification training is delivered entirely online, you'll be able to attend class easily. You'll interact with your instructor and classmates face-to-face over video chat, so it can feel just like a traditional classroom experience, but without the need to add an expensive and time-consuming commute to your life. You'll be able to study from somewhere you feel productive and free of distractions, whether that's a cafe or library like Hillman Library or the Squirrel Hill branch of the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, or your own home or office. There are multiple class meeting times available, and you can choose from two-week and four-week class sections, so you'll have some flexibility when it comes to scheduling.
If you call Varsity Tutors today we can help you find the Pittsburgh CompTIA Security+ certification course that's right for you. New course sections are starting every month, so we can get you enrolled quickly. Reach out now, and you may be taking the first step towards pursuing excellence in IT security.
