This value extends through the service network &ndash; from certification body, to certificate holder, to employer, to the public they serve.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p>ANSI is a global leader in the accreditation of personnel certification programs and is the only U.S. accreditor that requires a week-long assessor training as well as a mandatory annual training update to meet the requirements of ISO\/IEC 17011. <\/p>\n<p> &ldquo;We are extremely pleased that our certification programs have achieved this important accreditation,&rdquo; said John Venator, president and chief executive officer, CompTIA. &ldquo;This highly-desired status further affirms that CompTIA certifications are the recognized industry benchmark for a broad range of foundation-level IT skills.&rdquo; <\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/certification.comptia.org\/a\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"CompTIA A+\" onclick=\"linkClick( this.href );\">CompTIA A+<\/a> certification validates skills needed by computer support professionals, including installation, configuration, diagnosing, preventive maintenance, basic networking, security, safety, environmental issues, and communication and professionalism. <\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/certification.comptia.org\/network\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"CompTIA Network+\" onclick=\"linkClick( this.href );\">CompTIA Network+<\/a> validates an IT professional&rsquo;s ability to install, configure and troubleshoot basic networking hardware, protocols and services. <\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/certification.comptia.org\/security\/default.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"CompTIA Security+\" onclick=\"linkClick( this.href );\">CompTIA Security+<\/a> validates knowledge of communication security, infrastructure security, cryptography, operational security, and general security concepts. <\/p>\n<p> About CompTIA<br \/>The Computing Technology Industry Association (CompTIA) is the voice of the world&rsquo;s $3 trillion information technology industry.
