SPRINGFIELD, Vt. — Students in Ms. Wilson’s Technology Essentials and Hands On Computers classes traveled to Colby-Sawyer College to take the CompTIA IT Fundamentals exam on Tuesday, April 3. The students walked away with a 100-percent pass rate as all 9 students passed and earned this industry-recognized credential.
“The students were nervous going into the test, but they all worked diligently beforehand. They studied and practiced and it all paid off in the end,” said Ms. Wilson, the Technology Essentials and Hands On Computers Instructor at the River Valley Technical Center in Springfield, Vermont.
The CompTIA IT Fundamentals is an introduction to basic IT literacy in five categories: software, hardware, security, networking and basic IT literacy. The exam consists of 75 multiple choice questions and students have a limited time of 60 minutes. This is the first level of CompTIA certifications. The next exam is CompTIA A+ and Ms. Wilson has three students working towards passing this challenging level.
