CompTIA A+ is designed to introduce you to the world of computer networks.

They can confidently handle the most challenging technology problems more efficiently.

A+ is trusted by employers. As businesses and governments worldwide continue to adopt mobile and cloud technology, they trust A+ certified professionals to keep their devices running and organisations working smoothly.

A+ is globally recognised and accredited. A+ carries ISO/ANSI accreditation status. You can trust that the rigorous development process of the A+ certification objectives and exams follows international standards of quality assurance.

A+ is industry supported. It is developed and maintained by leading IT experts. Content for the exams stems from a combination of industry-wide survey feedback and contributions from our team of subject matter experts.
