Recommendation

The new version of CompTIA A+ focuses on the technologies and skills that IT professionals need to support a hybrid workforce.

  • CompTIA A+ takes into account the increased use of SaaS (software as a service) applications for remote working.
  • The new version of CompTIA A+ focuses more on troubleshooting and remote diagnosis and correction methods for common software, hardware and connectivity problems.
  • CompTIA A+ targets the evolution of key technologies, from Cloud infrastructure to data management and scripting, as well as the security of IoT devices.
  • Technicians regularly have to deal with different operating systems, and A+ now covers the main systems, their use cases and the methods for ensuring that they work properly.
  • CompTIA A+ takes into account the evolving nature of the job, where many tasks are sent to specialist suppliers. Certified personnel are able to assess whether it is preferable to repair a component on site, or whether it is more cost-effective in terms of time and money to send proprietary technologies directly to suppliers.

What makes it different?

CompTIA A+ is the only industry-recognised accreditation whose performance tests ensure that professionals are able to think quickly to perform critical IT support tasks. Employers around the world rely on it to identify the right person for endpoint management and technical support roles. CompTIA A+ appears in more job offers than any other IT accreditation in the technical support field.
