The Certified Technical Trainer (CTT+) certification is one of the most unique offerings in CompTIA’s repertoire. Its skillset does not require advanced technical knowledge of IT infrastructure, networking, or anything of the like. Instead, this certification works to enhance the teaching skills in individuals looking to become a classroom instructor. In most cases, it is difficult to pass a test and learn the material fully and properly without taking one of CompTIA’s (or other vendor’s) classroom training courses. These courses are designed to prepare participants for not just the test, but the workplace. This certification turns the tables on the average certification program and introduces skills that are vital to success as an IT instructor.
This CompTIA certification is one of the professional certifications that requires a passing score on two exams: CTT+ Essentials and Classroom Trainer, the second of which is a simulation test that requires participants to provide CompTIA with a video recording. The first exam, which consists of 95 multiple choice questions, will survey essential classroom skills, including course presentation, preparation, communication and ease of translation of the material. Numerous methods for communicating this material to the students will be viewed, while methods of delivery, evaluation and group facilitation will also be tested.
Upon earning this CompTIA certification you are guaranteed to become a knowledgeable and dedicated IT instructor. This certification is necessary for industry leaders like Microsoft, Adobe and Dell who view this certification as a standard of competency for admittance into their instructor programs. With documentation and other training resources available, this certification can be earned by credible industry professionals who are looking to step onto the other side of the IT tracks.
