A+ is Supported by the IT Industry
The CompTIA A+ certification exam was created at the request of the very industry that employs A+ certified individuals. You can be sure A+ certification is a highly recognized and respected credential.
The CompTIA A+ certification exam was developed in 1993 at the request of the information technology (IT) industry. Major corporations needed a way to validate the skills of entry-level technicians and reduce the costs associated with hiring, recruiting and training employees. These corporations turned to CompTIA to lead the development of the A+ certification program.
Hands-on service technicians used their real-world experience to define the A+ test content and computer service experts developed the A+ exam questions. A multi-level review process ensures that the A+ exam questions are accurate and psychometrically sound.
Since 1993, more than 500,000 technicians have taken the CompTIA A+ certification to launch or enhance their careers.
