PC Network Certification
The CompTIA A+ certification exam was developed in 1993 at the request of the IT industry; major corporations needed a way to validate the skills of entry-level technicians. CompTIA recruited Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) from more than 20 companies to create the standards and objectives of CompTIA A+. Hands-on service technicians used their real-world experience to define the test content, while computer service experts developed the exam questions.Thirteen years later, more than 700,000 technicians certified worldwide, CompTIA A+ is still seen by the technology community as the perfect entry into an IT career. CompTIA A+ validates knowledge and competency in core hardware and operating system technologies, including installation, configuration, diagnosing, preventive maintenance and basic networking. CompTIA A+ certification also confirms awareness of security, safety and environmental issues, as well as basic communication skills and professional etiquette. The certification objectives were updated in 2003 and also in 2006.
