What worked well: The career services support, specifically the refresher on building a strong resume. Areas for improvement: The course pacing. The main topic usually requires a few months of study, and squeezing it into two weeks made the learning experience feel overly rushed and difficult to digest.
Miguel and Nichole were amazing. The Career Prep material was very good and thorough. The Network+ material was comprehensive, but cramming that amount of material into 9 days of instruction was too much to ask. Also the lack of quizzes to reinforce the material after each section was a problem when comparing to how good the organization was for A+.
Overall I wish we can have more hands on experience instead of power points.
as we did do a+ and net+ prior to doing sec+, there was to many redundancies with the information. but with the new information i wish it was more in depth.
Overall, I found the CompTIA Security+ course informative and helpful, but I believe it would have been more effective if the course were longer. The material covered a lot of important concepts in a short amount of time, which sometimes made the course feel rushed. I also would have benefited from more hands-on labs and practical exercises to reinforce the concepts and gain more real-world experience. Extending the course and incorporating additional hands-on activities would better prepare students for both the Security+ exam and real-world IT/security environments.
High volume of information in such a short timeframe created a challengs; such as reduced retention, surface-level learning, increased burnout. Lessons were not in any order and some students did not have proper courses loaded the first few days.
There questioning that was asked but not explain in the ebooks or slide. A lot of information to retain, with very little time.
Need more hands on training to understand material.
The instructor gave good insight into his experiences and what he has encountered while taking the exam. However, the slides were extremely repetitive with some information and the some sections could've been removed since they were covered multiple times before.
