Basic Computer Literacy Skills

Overview

CompTIA Network+ validates the knowledge and skills of networking professionals. It is an international, vendor-neutral certification that recognises a technician’s ability to describe the features and functions of networking components and to install,
configure and troubleshoot basic networking hardware, protocols and services.

Although not a prerequisite, it is recommended that CompTIA Network+ candidates have at least nine months of experience in network support or administration or adequate academic training, along with CompTIA A+ certification.

The demand for skilled network support professionals continues to grow, and
CompTIA Network+ is a valuable credential to help start or enhance a networking career. In fact, many IT certifications integrate CompTIA Network+ into their curriculums.

The exam covers network technologies, installation and configuration, media and
topologies, management, and security. Candidate job roles include network
administrator, network technician, network installer, help desk technician and IT cable installer.

Companies such as Dell, HP, Ricoh, Sharp and Xerox recommend or require
CompTIA Network+ for their networking technicians. It is a technical prerequisite
option for IT technicians seeking to join the Apple Consultants Network, and is
recognized by the U.S. Department of Defense.

The current version of CompTIA Network+, exam code N10-005, was released 1st Dec 2011. The revised objectives address virtual networking and give increased attention to network security and coverage of the seven-layer OSI (Open System Interconnection) model. Those who successfully complete the programme will be trained to a level where they are thoroughly prepared to take the CompTIA Network+ certification.
