I'm currently in the process of renlisting into the guard as a 25B and also trying to transition into IT so I'm taking the CompTIA IFT+ course right now. I was wondering the the course preps you for something like the A+ certificate or if it is more or less a mash up of topics that doesn't prepare you for any 1 specific certificate? Does it prepare you for A+ or Network+?

The school gives you the basics of IT, Network and a little security plus but does not prepare you fully for Network+, or Security+. 4 phases the first two are your basic IT "this is a peripheral, computer, hard drive etc..., then goes into active directory, after that it is all Network, Subnetting and Coding.

I am a retired instructor for the 25B course, it covers a lot of material in a very short period of time, It gives you a lot on A+ and Network+ with a lot of access to information not tested on. It is up to you how much you get out of the course. I am sure they have changed the lesson plan from the time I retired but it is worth the time and training you will receive. Lot of info on the Cisco platform. Hope this helps.

I'm sure the information in the course is good but if you are taking a comptia course I recommend you use study guides designed for the specific test. The information will overlap but industry certification exams are very specific and you should use the study guides. Comptia also has a great app for your phone for studying as well.
