The exam is designed for individuals looking to get a basis for the different types of terminology used in the IT field and to help new additions to the industry get up to speed with their coworkers. The exam covers five topics, including software, hardware, security, networking and basic IT literacy, according to the company. CompTIA also recommends the exam for companies looking to promote and verify basic fluency in IT terminology and concepts among employees.
“IT literacy is a critical element in today’s innovation economy, which drives employment and powers growth in many other industries,” said Todd Thibodeaux, president and chief executive officer at CompTIA, in a statement. “This credential addresses the growing need for a deeper understanding of technology fundamentals throughout an organization.”
Training materials for the exam are expected to be available later this month. Additionally, training through the new CompTIA CertMaster course is expected to be available in November.
CompTIA also announced that it will retire its Strata IT Fundamentals exam as of Aug. 31, 2015, so make sure you get your certification soon if you’ve been holding off.
