How to Get a CompTIA A+ Certification for Free

If you’re looking to launch a career in IT, earning a CompTIA A+ certification is a crucial first step. This industry-recognized credential opens doors to various entry-level IT roles, providing foundational knowledge in hardware, software, troubleshooting, and cybersecurity. However, the cost of certification, which includes training and exam fees, can be a barrier for many aspiring IT professionals.

At JobWorks Education and Training, we believe financial constraints shouldn’t hold you back from achieving your career goals. That’s why we’re excited to share an incredible opportunity to earn your CompTIA A+ certification for free!

Understanding the Costs of CompTIA A+: The CompTIA A+ certification consists of two exams (Core 1 and Core 2), each costing around $246. In addition to exam fees, candidates often invest in training programs, study materials, and practice tests, which can push the total cost to $1,000 or more. For those on a tight budget, these expenses can make certification seem out of reach.
