CompTIA A+ training and certification exam preparation centre
If your work involves keeping production systems configured, patched and available, CompTIA A+ (exam code 220-1201 & 220-1202) is the CompTIA exam that puts a credential against it. CompTIA certifies working knowledge of its own platform and tooling, tested against the behaviour of the shipping product.
This is an entry-level credential: it checks you understand the core concepts before you take on day-to-day tasks. People usually sit it to formalise work they already do informally, keeping production systems configured, patched and available.
Training combines live teaching with hands-on administration tasks built from the CompTIA objective list, so the exam covers ground you have already worked through. Preparation assumes some hands-on exposure and concentrates on closing the gaps that cost marks.
The listed fee is USD 274; booked through WebAsha it is USD 247, a 10% saving. CompTIA sets the fee and it varies by region, so we confirm the current amount before you pay.
CompTIA sets the format, duration, passing score and validity, and revises them periodically. Check the official exam page for the current values. We confirm them with you at booking.

Systems administration practice you keep

CompTIA owns the format, length and pass mark, and changes them between revisions. We read the current figures off the official page with you before you book.
CompTIA states any formal requirement on the official exam page, and it changes between revisions. The more useful question is whether you can handle installation and configuration, monitoring and patching, and troubleshooting live faults without help. If not, we will suggest a lower rung first.
Preparation time tracks your existing experience of keeping production systems configured, patched and available. Rather than quoting a number that would not apply to you, we measure your practice results and advise when you are genuinely ready.
Teaching is live, and your lab stays available between sessions. Watching someone else run hands-on administration tasks does not transfer the skill.
Yes. You get exam-style questions plus hands-on administration tasks, drawn from the published objectives. Results come back per objective, which keeps revision honest.
Whether a free retake applies is CompTIA's policy, and it varies by certification. Check the official policy before booking. On our side you keep lab access and get a revision plan built from the score breakdown.
CompTIA decides how long the credential stays current, and revises that policy periodically. Confirm the current terms on the official certification page. We flag the renewal path at booking so it does not surprise you years later.
CompTIA controls which delivery modes are available for this exam. We confirm which options are open to you in your country when the voucher is issued.
Yes. They are official CompTIA vouchers, and we help you redeem and schedule them. We do not sell leaked or real exam questions: that breaches CompTIA's certification policy and puts your credential at risk.
