CompTIA’s A+ 220-601 Essentials Exam is one of two exams required to achieve the A+ 2006 certification as an IT, Remote Support, or Depot Technician. The exam is meant for entry-level computer professionals, such as desktop support specialists, remote administrators, and depot assemblers. This exam has no prerequisites and is designed for individuals with at least 500 hours in computer technology support. Users that attain the A+ 2006 Certification are usually referred to as a helpdesk technician, computer support professional, or IT technician. The official domains of the exam are: - Personal Computer Components
- Laptop and Portable Devices
- Operating Systems
- Printers and Scanners
- Networks
- Security
- Safety and Environmental Issues
- Communication and Professionalism
Unlike the previous iteration of this exam, it will no longer involve questions on legacy operating systems, such as Windows 3.1 and Windows 95. Additionally, the A+ 220-601 exam will involve questions that deal with soft skills and office communication. Candidates that are familiar with computer technology but unfamiliar with service communication, would do well to study up on the proper method of assisting customers, coworkers and superiors. However, the exam will still ask 100 questions in traditional multiple choice and multiple answer format. The passing score for this exam is a 675 or better on a scale of 900.
