Certification Test Preparation

With our Test Preparation module, you can assess your knowledge of the skills and competencies and readiness for the CompTIA certification exam. The Practice Test can be taken in both Study and Certification modes.

Study mode is designed to maximise learning by not only testing your knowledge of the material, but by providing feedback on your answer choices and additional information on the topics presented.

Certification mode is designed to test your knowledge of the material within a structured testing environment, similar to what you will experience when you take the CompTIA certification exam.
