Department Guidelines

A+ certification requires two exams for certification. Students who attempt the certification exams and earn 60% or more of the points will earn credit in the course. Successfully meeting the CompTIA A+ scoring requirement (~80%) will result in earning the certification. Scores between 60 and 100% will be graded using the standard BBCC grading policies and grade points.
