The reason we do what we do!
I just completed the Comp-Tia A+ Certification. I used theedition classes on Skillport and it was spot on to the exam. I
studied two hours a day until I went through all the classes
and the exam prep twice. This prepared me very well for the
exam.
We are currently based in Taji, Iraq and there is a Pearson VUE
testing center.

Earning certification in a career field can be assatisfying as earning a college degree.
Certificationis the key link between Servicemembers training and experience and it translates
military qualifications into civilian terms. Becominga certified is a great way to demonstrate initiative
and responsibility, allowing Service members to
exhibit the depth of their knowledge in their career
field.

CompTIA Exam Pilot at Seahttp://www.chips.navy.mil/archives/09_Jan/web_pages/IA_training.html
Information systems technician chief petty officers from the ships combat
systems department administered the commercial certification exams using thePearson VUE electronic testing platform.
Standing up Pearson VUE test centers afloat also enables testing for othercertifications, including Adobe and Cisco certifications.
The ship can claim bragging rights with 95 percent of the Lincoln Strike Group
IAWF now holding an IA commercial certification. Overall Navy certificationstatus is at almost 40 percent. Many ashore units have high passage rates, butafloat operational tempo makes it more difficult to achieve, said Mike Knight,Naval Network Warfare Command program manager for IAWF management.
Being able to train and test underway will help the Navy achieve not only DoDIAWF requirements but also DON continuous learning requirements. The Lincoln
pilot also demonstrated that while some Sailors thrive in a live classroomenvironment, others do well with online courses and in the Virtual TrainingEnvironment.
Deckplate leadership from the chief petty officers, which includes training,mentoring and motivation of the Sailors, was the key to our success, White said.
