Assistance from SMEs is crucial in providing an industry relevant exam. To qualify, SMEs must have 3-5 years of experience working in one or more of the following roles: IT security practitioners (especially those involved in internal staff training initiatives), IT security instructors (secondary or post-secondary instructors teaching entry level courses), and those involved in workforce development programs.

When: August 15-18, 2022
Where: Virtual workshop
Only professionals working in one of the fields above should apply. Please note that while CompTIA is recruiting those with a background in teaching/training, we will exclude those training towards CompTIA certifications and those who may profit or materially benefit from knowledge of the CompTIA credential content are not eligible to participate.
