Course Overview

Passing Certification Exams with Strategic Test Taking!

Study smarter and pass your ITIL 4 Foundation, A+, Network+, Security+, PenTest+, CISSP, and other exams easier!

This course is designed to help you learn "how to study" for certification exams and understand how to pick the right answers on test day. Now, I know that sounds simple, but there is a method to this that many students don't know.

Have you ever taken an IT Certification exam and scored only 695 but needed 700 to pass? Have you had to retake the exam several times in order for you to pass? If so, you may need some help learning how to take certification exams more effectively. This is because they are different from than the tests you took during high school, college, or university.

In this course, you will learn how to study better, take more efficient notes, and most importantly, how to increase your odds of passing your CompTIA (A+, Network+, Security+, CySA+, PenTest+, CASP+), Microsoft, ISC2 (CISSP, SSCP), EC-Council (CEH), or other IT Certification exams on the first attempt by using our tips, tricks, and efficiency gains to your advantage.

After teaching all these techniques in the course, we will dive into some practice exam questions (A+, Network+, Security+, PenTest+, ITIL 4 Foundation, and CISSP) and put these principles to use, showing you how they can help you increase your odds of success, so that you can pass your exam on the first attempt!


What my students are saying about this course:

  • I enjoyed the course so much I ran it from beginning to end on one session. It is very clear and easy to understand and the explanations of tackling test questions should prove very useful. I will definitely be using these techniques in my next exam. (Eddie, 5 star)

  • I am very interested in cutting my time down on my studies but have the important information. Learning style registers very well with me and some of the things spoken in here appears backwards to those I know, but actually syncs to how I do things. (LaRanne, 5 stars)

  • Really helped. I took some good notes that resonated with me, plus I like that he includes the study guide PDF that is a written breakdown of everything he covered. Taking my Sec+ in 2 weeks. This has eased the nerves alot! Thx Jason! (Rodrigo Segura, 5 stars)


Upon completion of this course, you will earn 3 CEUs towards the renewal of your CompTIA A+, Network+, Security+, Linux+, Cloud+, PenTest+, CySA+, or CASP+ certifications.

    There are some fantastic tips and hints on how to improve reading and note-taking. However, I wish there had been more practical examples in sections 3–6, rather than PowerPoint slides. Show us your real notes and guide us through one or two pages of reading and note-taking e.g.

    I did benefit from the content. I've always been a strong test-taker, and I currently use some of these techniques, but I was still able to learn some new ones. Thank you!
