Renewing CompTIA certification

2021-10-12 13:08:00

A question that comes up pretty frequently on Discord, is about CompTIA's renewal process. Like ISC2, ECC and SANS/GIAC, CompTIA also have a program that works with CPE/CEU (study credits). However, they're actually a bit more flexible than the others.

Here's a nice comparison of the "easiest" ways to renew.

TLDR, you either:

• Pay to take the same CompTIA exam again.
• Pay to take Certmaster CE (if applicable).
• Pay to pass a higher CompTIA exam (Net+ renews A+, Linux+ renews both, etc).
• Pay to pass someone else's exam, but then you will also need to pay renewal fees.

Me, I've always gone for the last option, which is silly because getting PT+, CYSA+ and CASP+ would have renewed all my certs for free. 😐 Wasted money
