CompTIA A+ Exam Update
The objectives of the CompTIA A+ offering have been updated to reflect
both changes in technology and the unique requirements of the evolved
IT worker job roles. The updated exams are expected to be available
in Q306. The goal is to ensure that this benchmark credential remains
current and relevant, offering the most value to the candidate, employer
and overall market.
The updated offering still consists of two tests. However, both include
hardware and operating system concepts along with
additional domains such as security, safety and
environmental issues and communication
and professionalism. This structure validates both
the knowledge and application of concepts and skills
identified by subject matter experts
and employers as necessary for entry-level IT workers.
The combination of exams CompTIA A+ Essentials and 220-602 as highlighted
by the rectangle below, most closely resembles the
current offering and fits most similar job environments.
But some job environments
may require validation of a different set of skills.
In recognition of the evolution of the entry-level
IT professional, the updated CompTIA A+ now offers
alternative validation paths for specific job environments.
