CompTIA A+ Certification Prep 2: Software (Self-Guided)

The CompTIA A+ Certification Prep 2: Software course picks up where the CompTIA A+ Certification Prep 1: Hardware course left off and dives into Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Throughout the CompTIA A+ prep training, you will learn about operating systems from installation to operations, maintenance to troubleshooting. Our computer software training course teaches you about virtualization and virtual machines, plus it goes in-depth on printer and multifunction device technologies.

This CompTIA A+ prep course takes you through the second of three prep courses you need to become both a highly competent computer tech and a CompTIA A+ certified technician, using the 1101 and 1102 competencies.
