Purchase Your CompTIA Voucher

The curriculum of Ops 401 is aligned to the learning objectives of the CompTIA Security+ certification. Earning this certification demonstrates foundational knowledge of information security. For this prework assignment, you’ll purchase an exam voucher.

Check with your instructor to see if discounted vouchers are available through your program.

If your funding source doesn’t support 3rd-party certifications, discuss an alternative with your instructor.

Tasks
