Document Summary

The personal landscape today includes a plethora of devices in all shapes, sizes and purposes. Someone needs to set up, manage, maintain, and troubleshoot all of these devices. Nearly every profession has some criteria that you must meet to show your competence and ability to perform at a certain level. If you pass the exams, the organization that administers them grants you a certification. The certification gives those potential clients or employers a level of confidence that you can do what you say you can do. Without this certification, either you will not find suitable work in that profession or no one will trust you to do the work. Modern pc technicians attain the comptia a+ certification, the essential credential that shows competence in the modern field of information technology, a fancy way of saying: Computing technology plus all the other stuff needed to connect and support computers.
