Element K Releases CompTIA Security+ Curriculum in Preparation for New Exam

ROCHESTER, N.Y., April 29, 2010 — Learning solutions provider Element K, a Platinum Content Partner in the CompTIA Authorized Partner Program (CAPP), is pleased to announce the release of their much-anticipated CompTIA Security+ courseware. CompTIA released their 2011 exam objectives earlier this year and will be releasing a new version of the Security+ exam (SY0-301) in May 2011. In preparation for this new release, Element K used single-source development to create the highest quality training materials that map to these new objectives.

For a long time, Element K has been known as the leader in CompTIA training materials. CompTIA Security+ courseware from Element K consists of engaging and learner-centered activities with content that maps to the 2011 objectives. CompTIA Security+ certification validates experienced technical knowledge of security as it relates to systems security, access control, network infrastructure, assessments and audits, cryptography, and organizational security across all vendor products.

Element K's CompTIA classroom materials are available in traditional print and e-book formats. Each course book also includes an access key for Knowledge Packs — enhanced learning tools that extend the student's experience beyond the classroom. Using Element K books or e-books, instructors provide students with access to an online portal with a collection of resources that include:

  • Immersive content and interactive resources and simulations that map to the course objectives.
  • Assessments to identify competency gaps and validate comprehension.
  • Electronic course books accessible via a web browser or mobile device.
  • Printable quick reference cards and other performance support materials.
  • In select offers, access to vLabs — hands-on practice on real hardware and software.

All Knowledge Pack components are accessible 24/7 via the portal at http://www.yourlearninghub.com in secure, 12-month subscriptions. To purchase Knowledge Packs for CompTIA titles, visit the Element K courseware store at or call 1-800-478-7788 (or 1-585-240-7500) to speak with an Element K representative.
