The updated A+ includes the security skills and soft skills — such as communication and customer service — needed by today’s employers. The A+ credential requires two tests. All candidates must pass the A+ Essentials exam. Three other exams are offered so candidates can choose the second exam to tailor their training to specific job scenarios.
Learn the in-demand skills for building, maintaining and repairing personal computers using A+. Entry level jobs include User Support Analysts, Computer Service Technicians, Desktop Support Assistants, and many other positions.
