    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

    Official CompTIA A+
    Boot Camp FAQ

    Real questions from real professionals who passed.
    Here's how we answer them.

    Yes, a focused 5 day boot camp can prepare you for both A+ exams by covering the full objectives for 220-1201 and 220-1202 and teaching proven test taking strategies.

    The course prepares you for both required certification exams, 220-1201 (Core 1) and 220-1202 (Core 2).

    The exams are considered entry level but still require preparation, covering hardware, networking, operating systems, security, and troubleshooting.

    Yes. Both the Core 1 (220-1201) and Core 2 (220-1202) exam vouchers are included with your enrollment, so you can take both certification exams.

    Core 1 covers hardware, mobile devices, networking, and troubleshooting, while Core 2 focuses on operating systems, security, software troubleshooting, and operational procedures.

    This course is designed for individuals starting a career in IT, including help desk technicians, career changers, and entry level technology professionals.

    No professional IT experience is required, although basic familiarity with computers is helpful.

    Many students complete their preparation in a 5 day boot camp and take the two exams during, or shortly after finishing the course.
