So none of your interns are taking the certification exam?
No, that would be silly. Even ones that would eventually do some bench work, the A+ is useless for enterprise bench work and is focused on consumer bench. We are not a bench company, nor a consumer one. So the A+ broadly doesn't apply in any way to us as a company, or IT interns looking for IT careers.
I don't see how the A+ content is not useful to someone working with client PCs, hardware and OS. I know many of the basic things in the A+ some people here are obviously ignorant of that otherwise would have been long gone over had the A+ been studied, as one example.
You are confusing the material with the cert. They are two different things. Having a cert for brushing your teeth would be insanely useless, but that doesn't imply that not knowing how to brush your teeth is useless.
I don't agree with that logic because it's baseless as in can be said with any cert, or validation of covered material such as degrees.
Your point (not example, your example was completely bad) is only valid if the material and cert are not linked, such as to know none of the material the cert or degree is certifying one should know or be familiar with by having said cert or degree.
If someone does have the A+, it's assumed they are aware of and have covered the material the cert is certifying they are competent of.
Perhaps some of the material the A+ certifies some degree of knowledge of is useless for certain jobs and careers... perhaps some job descriptions require certs that are completely irrelevant to the job, but that's besides the point and not an issue with the cert or material itself.

@JaredBusch I'm so sorry for making such a huge mistake in my second language. Would it make things better if I erased my post? :face_with_stuck-out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Western Union totally down today. Keep getting "technical issues", then they admitted that there is something system wide and they are down for now.

So we had to fall back to MoneyGram, which worked, then their system went down with that bank. Dominica had to run to a SECOND MoneyGram facility for them to finish processing!

Except the point here is that the cert is not for the right field and is not just useless to someone actually wanting to be in IT, but probably actually detrimental.
BUt the point was that we were discussing the cert and you responded about the material. You can't disagree with that point, it's just fact, there is no opinion portion.

They are never linked, logically they cannot be. So the point is always valid. Getting a cert and learning material for a cert are quite different things unless you believe that you can learn the material while taking the cert exam itself - which is possible in theory but unrealistic.

Of course. But this is both a false assumption and not relevant. What matters is the inverse being false... because someone lacks the A+ doesn't imply that they don't know the material. SInce that is false, my point has to be true.
