Get hands-on with the skills every Computer Software Technician needs…we’re talking OS, security, troubleshooting, and the right kind of professionalism.

In this CompTIA A+ 1002 course, explore Windows and non-Windows systems, install and upgrade operating systems, and script your way through real-world automation tasks. You'll dive deep into system tools, control panels, and command-line fixes.

We’ll cover network sharing, remote access, and keeping your systems connected, secured, and locked down. From blocking threats to recovering data and responding to incidents, every module gets you closer to being the go-to IT pro in the room.

Through hands-on labs, you'll back up files, configure firewalls, secure mobile devices, run PowerShell scripts, perform MITM attacks (in a safe space, of course), and even set up surge protection like a boss.
