CompTIA Security+ represents one of our most popular and in-demand certification courses. A green flag indicator displayed beside a date listing on the right side of the page signifies that a specific session has successfully met minimum enrollment requirements and is confirmed to be running. However, it is common for session dates for this highly sought-after course to become completely full several weeks in advance of the start date. Even if a date displays a green flag indicating confirmed status, you may be unable to secure enrollment if the session has reached maximum capacity. To minimize disappointment and ensure your spot, we strongly recommend registering for this course at least three weeks ahead of your preferred start date.
Course Overview:
CompTIA Security+ is specifically targeted at IT professionals working in roles such as security architect, security engineer, security consultant or specialist, information assurance technician, security administrator, systems administrator, and network administrator across various organization types.
Prerequisites and Required Background Knowledge:
Before beginning this course, students should satisfy the following criteria and possess the following knowledge:
- It is highly recommended that students have successfully completed the CompTIA Network+ certification course and examination, combined with a minimum of 24 months of hands-on experience in networking support roles or IT administration
- Knowledge of the function and essential features of personal computer components and peripherals
- Competency in using Windows Server operating system to create, organize, and manage files, as well as performing basic administrative functions through Explorer, Control Panel, Management Consoles, and Command Line Tools
- Practical ability to operate the Linux operating system using fundamental command-line tools and utilities
- Understanding of basic network terminology and core networking functions, including the OSI Model, network Topology, Ethernet protocols, Wi-Fi standards, switches, and routers
- Knowledge of TCP/IP addressing schemes, core protocols in use, and effective troubleshooting tools for network diagnostics
Comprehensive Exam Preparation Support:
All CompTIA courses delivered through ONLC Training Centers include full access to web-based practice examinations. CompTIA certification exams are rigorous and challenging by design. Through diligent studying after course completion and consistent use of the included practice exams, you will substantially improve your probability of passing the actual certification exam on your first attempt.
ONLC's Exam Pass Guarantee Program:
ONLC's CompTIA certification courses come backed by our Exam Pass Guarantee. This guarantee ensures that we want every student to fully utilize the provided Practice Test and achieve a score of 85 percent or higher in Certification Mode before we release the initial exam voucher. The practice test is typically ordered on the opening day of your class and then emailed to each individual student.
Once you submit documentation of your 85 percent or higher practice exam score to [email protected], we will release your exam voucher to you within 24 hours. If you do not achieve a passing score on your initial attempt, we will then provide you with a second voucher, with a maximum of 3 vouchers issued per exam per student. However, should you choose not to take the provided practice exam, or should you decide to attempt the certification exam without first achieving the required 85 percent score in certification mode, your Exam Pass Guarantee becomes null and void.
Important Information Regarding CompTIA Certification Exams:
As is typical with most professional IT certifications, substantial additional hours of independent study beyond the formal classroom are required both before the course begins (to meet the prerequisites) and after the course concludes (to review exam objectives and practice test questions thoroughly). Plan to dedicate significant time to studying outside of class before you take this or any other professional IT certification exam.
