A+ Certification Definition

A+ is a certification offered by the CompTIA (Computing Technology Industry Association) trade group. The A+ certification contains two exams, the A+ DOS/Windows Exam and the A+ Core Exam. The tests feature cross industry questions, not specific to one certain vendor, but an overview of PC technology. Considered an entry level certification, many companies use the exams to test basic knowledge of employees.

CompTIA also offers Network+, a networking exam, I-Net+, an Internet technology exam, and CDIA, a document imaging certification.
