CompTIA Security+ 601 (2.0) Reviews

The program is really good for getting test ready in a short amount of time. My suggestions for improvement would be: - Have all the instructors include mini quizzes every day so that students can practice active recall of the information - I think that the order in which we went through the information should be reviewed and rearranged. More difficult or complex concepts were introduced really early on day one. I think this would be resolved if the instructors for A+, Net+, and Sec+ had the actual exam objectives and went through that in an order they know to be easy for a student to digest. That way the information is core from the actual test, and can be taught in an easier fashion - The midterm and the final exams should be reviewed because some of the questions had coding issues, incorrect answers, or were worded a little wonky. - I think the courses should be extended to 3 weeks and the instructors should use the exam objectives pdfs to teach from. I think they should go over the terms to explain the concepts briefly and then use active recall games like kahoot, their own personal made quizzes, quizlet, or menti because when this was used that dramatically improved my memory of what I was learning. Most of them used the Powerpoint method of teaching and its really easy to lose your students with that because they don't stay engaged when going through slides. -I think there should be a week break in-between the the 2 week courses in order to prep and test for the exam if the student choose to and to have a mental break. Or there should be a week break in the middle of the program so people can have that mental break/recover. By the time we got to Sec+ you could tell that the other students in my class were pretty worn out because they were balancing work with school. - If it doesn't dramatically affect the program and its not possible to create breaks, I think that the entire program should be moved online so that there isn't as much of a strain when trying to learn this information in such a short time period.

With great humility and very little knowledge in IT, that is no longer the case. Thank you ACI Learning.

Overall my experience with my Instructors and first 3 classes ITIL, A+ core and A+ core were very knowledgeable, as Network + and Security + are the most important certificated during this course, you should consider having a different instructor for them.

Overall, this course seems like a GI Bill cash grab. It is overpriced for the knowledge and material provided. After being with ACI for 10 weeks I feel as if I would have been better reading the CompTIA's Objectives and watching videos on Youtube on each topic. Then paying for the Certification exam on my own. It would have been cheaper and with would have been more efficient.
