@doc CDIA+ Training Agenda

The New 10 Step Program

@doc will deliver a two or three day course preparation class for the CDIA+ exam. The CDIA+ test has recently been updated to reflect a more comprehensive set of learning objectives.  These objectives cover a number of business issues and technical issues related to planning, analyzing, designing and implementing an imaging application.  We have organized these objectives and our training program into the following outline.  The course will be presented with a case study to assist attendees with applying the concepts presented in a holistic fashion. Attendees will also be presented with two sample tests based on the new objectives.  To see the list of objectives and more information about the new CDIA+ visit http://www.comptia.org.
