TK0-201

About This Exam

TK0-201 (CTT+ Essentials) is the computer-based knowledge exam for the CompTIA CTT+ (Certified Technical Trainer) certification. It validates the ability to plan before the course by reviewing learning objectives against learner and organizational needs through needs assessments and audience analysis, adapting materials without compromising the course design, and preparing a safe, comfortable physical or virtual learning environment with the right logistics, equipment, session room setup and contingency plans; to select and implement delivery methods and instructional media that suit the content, the learners and their learning styles, and handle problems with each medium; to demonstrate professional conduct, content expertise and clear, bias-free verbal and non-verbal communication and presentation skills; to facilitate groups by establishing and maintaining a learner-centered environment, using a variety of question types and active listening, giving learners clarification and feedback, and motivating and reinforcing them; and to evaluate the training event by monitoring learner performance with sound assessments and by evaluating the course design, the trainer's own delivery and the effectiveness of the training against its objectives. It is for classroom and virtual trainers, instructors and other training professionals with six to twelve months of training experience. Together with a performance exam, TK0-202 (Classroom Trainer) or TK0-203 (Virtual Classroom Trainer), it earns the CompTIA CTT+ certification. CompTIA retired the CTT+ certification in 2023: the last day to take the TK0-201 exam was September 30, 2023, and holders of the certification stay certified for life.
