Certified - CompTIA Server+

This episode catalogs the range of study resources available to Server+ candidates, starting with official CompTIA materials such as the objectives document, CertMaster training, and practice exams. We also explore high-quality unofficial resources, including third-party study guides, online courses, and peer discussion forums, emphasizing how to evaluate their reliability and alignment with the current exam version. You’ll learn why cross-referencing multiple sources helps reinforce accuracy and reduces the risk of relying on outdated or incomplete information.

We then shift to the essential role of lab tools in building practical skills. Whether it’s physical hardware like servers, racks, and networking equipment, or virtual environments running hypervisors, the episode explains how to set up and use these tools effectively. We discuss open-source utilities, free trial software, and low-cost lab configurations that still provide realistic hands-on practice. By understanding how each resource contributes to different aspects of exam readiness, you can build a balanced preparation toolkit that supports both conceptual mastery and applied skill.
