Flexible professional development program designed to empower educators, help schools build capacity for CTE programs
Downers Grove, Ill., Sept. 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Career and technical education instructors now have more options for professional development through a new program from CompTIA, the leading global provider of vendor-neutral information technology (IT) training and certifications.
CompTIA’s Professional Development Series equips teachers with industry-recognized certifications and strategies for modern technology instruction, while simultaneously helping their schools build capacity for career and technical education (CTE) programs.
"CTE programs are essential in helping students build the technology skills that are in such critical demand in the workforce, but these programs are only as effective as the level of instruction they provide,” said Mark Plunkett, executive vice president, CompTIA.
“CompTIA’s Professional Development Series enables educators to confidently deliver essential tech instruction that will help students thrive in a digital world,” Plunkett continued. “This program is a key component of CompTIA’s commitment to expanding products and services to support workforce training in our schools."
The Professional Development Series is designed for educators in a variety of roles, including both new and experienced CTE teachers; IT, computer science and digital literacy instructors; and education and tech staff team members interested in certifications and professional growth.
Sensitive to teachers’ schedules, CompTIA’s self-paced OnDemand learning solutions allow educators to move through the materials at their own pace. The flexible and dynamic professional development program offers educators a variety of resources, including:
- Learning and certification options with CompTIA Tech+, A+, Network+ and Security+
- Expert support via live chats and weekly office hours with certified experts
- Bi-weekly mentor and guidance sessions with certified classroom teachers
