What this course is
Where digital literacy stops being optional.
CompTIA Tech+ is the modern replacement for ITF+. It is CompTIA's entry-level certification covering computing fundamentals, networks, security awareness, software and data — designed for any business professional, graduate or career switcher building digital literacy at speed.
At Nexperts, Tech+ is delivered as a 3-day intensive across 24 hours of live, hands-on lab time. We map every domain to real-world examples relevant to MY workplaces. By day 3 you've toured a live PC, configured a small home network, identified phishing, written your first SQL query and decoded a system log.
Tech+ is not for IT professionals. It is for every other professional who works alongside IT — and that is everyone. After this course, you will speak the language of your IT team, ask better questions, and make better decisions.
Tech+ is the recognised CompTIA entry credential and is the right starting point if you are pivoting into IT or building digital literacy as a non-IT business professional. From here, IT-track learners progress to CompTIA A+ or Network+; non-IT learners gain immediate workplace fluency.

Why our pass rate is 96%
Industry average: ~78%
Most candidates over-prepare on infrastructure and under-prepare on data + dev concepts. Tech+ rewards balance, not depth in any one area.
Nexperts: 96%
We balance time across all 6 domains. We drill the question patterns. We gate booking on a clearance mock.
Your IT Path
Tech+ pairs with A+ and Security+.
Tech+ is the entry. From here, IT-track learners progress to CompTIA A+ (hardware + OS depth), Network+ (network depth), or Security+ (cybersecurity).
Expected salary range after Tech+: RM 3,500 – RM 5,500/month for entry-level IT and business-tech roles in MY. The cert serves more as a credibility signal than a career endpoint.
