The number of jobs in the information technology field is growing rapidly, and Varsity Tutors can connect you with the Raleigh-Durham CompTIA A+ certification training you need to join the field. The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) A+ certification is a widely-recognized credential in the information technology profession. It is part of the Core certification series individuals must acquire before testing further.
The Core certification itself can be a good career starter, helping you get your foot in the door when applying for positions like support specialists, field service technicians, and desktop support analysts. Having CompTIA A+ certification tells employers that you can diagnose and troubleshoot problems in a variety of areas, including mobile devices, networks, or security.
There are two exams to pass to earn the CompTIA A+ certification. Each consists of a maximum of 90 questions with a time limit of 90 minutes. The exams do not have any required prerequisites, but it is recommended that you have between 9 and 12 months of work experience before attempting to take them. One exam assesses your understanding of hardware, virtualization, mobile devices, cloud computing, networking technology, and troubleshooting. The other focuses on operational procedures, software troubleshooting, expanded security, and installing and configuring operating systems.
Knowing what to prepare for can be difficult if you are studying alone, but the Raleigh-Durham CompTIA A+ certification course can help you concentrate your efforts on topics known to be covered on the test. Lessons are delivered in a group format so you can learn from both your instructor and other aspiring IT professionals. While working with your class, your instructor has a chance to deliver lessons in a variety of styles to maximize understanding. He or she can try various instructional methods such as visual, auditory, or text-based teaching to increase your chance of memory retention.
Your instructor can help your group understand technical content, familiarize you with the test format and structure, and show you strategies you can use on the test to handle difficult questions. Raleigh-Durham CompTIA A+ certification training instructors are carefully interviewed and vetted to ensure expertise in technical areas and to make sure they have effective communication skills.
To broaden your knowledge, your instructor could cover any of a number of different areas, like:
· Best practices for communication and professionalism while providing customer service
· Implementing best practices for safety and being conscientious about environmental impact
· Supporting different operating systems including Windows OS, Mac OS, Linux, and mobile OS
· Different types of networks and connections including TCP/IP, WIFI, and SOHO
· Troubleshooting strategies for a wide variety of areas such as device and network issues
· Networking and security forensics to help identify and shield your organization from security breaches on devices and networks
Raleigh-Durham CompTIA A+ certification classes are delivered online. The virtual classroom has been set up to let you see, hear, and interact with your instructor and other students. This flexible format enables you to log in from wherever you can find an internet connection. You can learn in the comfort of your home, a cafe, or someplace with fewer distractions like the James B. Hunt Jr. Library, the Wake County Public Library, or the Chapel Hill Public Library.
Raleigh-Durham CompTIA A+ certification courses are provided both at varying times during the day and on different days of the week to accommodate busy schedules. New sections start every month, and you can choose to enroll in either two- or four-week sections.
