@WrCombs said in What Are You Doing Right Now:

if they are taking the certification test, then you shouldn't really skip.

Added a new training category so that we can organize that type of material better rather than grouping it under careers.

Finally done posting the "important" bits of the new CompTIA A+ training. Skipped over loads and loads of clearly bench stuff or filler. Tried to limit it to the parts someone going into IT could actually use.
