Exam Prep Software: All CompTIA classes offered include access to web-based practice exams. CompTIA certification exams are very rigorous and challenging. By studying after the class and using these practice exams, students will greatly improve Their chances of passing the actual certification exam the first time.

Exam Pass Guarantee: All of the CompTIA certification classes we sell come with an Exam Pass Guarantee from the training provider. To receive the exam voucher students will need to take the Practice Test provided, and achieve and 85% or better in Certification Mode, prior to the release of the exam voucher. The practice test is typically ordered the first day of class and emailed to each student. Once the student emails exam@onlc.com with proof of the 85% or better, the exam voucher will be released to them within 24 hours. Should you fail on the first attempt, you will be provided a second voucher (up to 3 vouchers total per exam). However, should you decide to not take the practice exam or to take the exam without first achieving the 85% in certification mode, the Exam Pass is null and void.
