CompTIA was just acquired by a private equity firm — and this could change everything.

In this episode, I sit down with Wes Bryan (former ITProTV trainer) to unpack what this acquisition could mean for CompTIA certifications like A+, Network+, and Security+. We dive deep into how this move might reshape the future of IT certifications, the growing value of hands-on skills, and what hiring managers are really looking for in 2025.

🎯 What You'll Learn:

  • Are IT certifications still worth it in 2025?

  • Will CompTIA’s new ownership shift focus away from learners?

  • The rise of hands-on labs vs traditional certs

  • How to future-proof your IT career in a changing landscape

  • Real advice for beginners entering tech today

Whether you're just starting out in IT or rethinking your certification path, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.
