Trainer Training, Putting You Ahead

Domain One measures your ability to assess and configure the classroom environment for effective learning. It also assesses your ability to determine student needs and how to tailor your lessons to meet those needs.
Domain Two measures your knowledge of different learning styles and methods of instructional delivery. This portion also assesses your ability to use various instructional media such as flipcharts, handouts, slide presentations, and video.
Domain Three measures your communication abilities like remaining positive and professional in all teaching situations. This covers appearance, non-verbal communication, personal grooming, and the ability to handle student questions and concerns in a positive and non-critical way.
Domain Four assesses you in your learning facilitator role. It measures your ability to develop and maintain group-learning dynamics and a learner-centered environment. Also, your effective questioning skills will be examined as well as your active listening skills.
Domain Five assesses your ability to reflect on your own teaching performance and assess the progression of your students throughout the lesson. You will be expected to know effective surveying techniques for this section of the test.
It is recommended that a candidate take a practice exam before undertaking the real one. Practice test questions from a competent training program such as PrepMasters can help you prepare for this intense computer-based test.

CTT+ Skills Assessment Video Exam
The skills assessment video portion of the CTT+ examination is where you show off the instructor techniques you have learned. In a 20-minute video, candidates give an actual instructional performance which will be reviewed by professional evaluators. You must also fill out a Video Documentation Form that gives additional information about the video-taped instructional performance.     

Scoring
To receive CompTIA’s CTT+ certification, candidates must pass both the computer-based test and the video skills assessment. The minimum passing score of 655 is needed to pass the computer-based test, and a score of at least 36 points must be achieved to pass the video-based test.
If a candidate fails one or both of the tests, he/she will receive a final score, the minimum passing score, and diagnostic indicators. The candidate can then use this information to determine the areas of their strengths and weaknesses to better prepare them for a retake of the failed exam. 

 

CTT+ Certified!
After passing the CTT+ certification exam, the newly certified trainer will easily stand out from the rest of applicants for training positions. The prestige and respect for this certification are just a few reasons why you, as a trainer, should consider embarking on this worthwhile journey.
