What Do You Need to Know about the CompTIA A+ Certification Exams

To receive the CompTIA A+ certification you have to pass two exams, 220-1001 (Core 1) and 220-1002 (Core 2). These exams were recently launched (January 2019) with the following new objectives:
Demonstrate standard security skills for information technology (IT) professionals
Configure various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, Mac, Chrome OS, iOS, and Android, and manage cloud-based and client-based software
Troubleshooting and problem solving of service and support issues while using best practices for scripting, change management, and documentation
Supporting basic IT networking and infrastructure
Support and configure mobile, PC, and IoT (Internet of Things) devices
Deploy basic backup and recovery methods for data, as well as data management and storage best practices

The first exam, Core 1, covers hardware, networking technology, mobile devices, cloud computing, virtualization, and networking troubleshooting. The Core 2 exam tests your knowledge of software troubleshooting, installing operating systems, configuring operating systems, operations procedures, and expanded security. Each exam has about 90 questions, of which there are multiple-choice questions, drag and drop questions, and performance-based questions. You will have an hour and a half to complete each exam.

Passing requires that you score at least 675 for exam #220-1001 and 700 for #220-1002 on a scale of 100-900.
