  • Description


    This foundational IT Concepts and Terminology training prepares learners to think with and talk about the most fundamental ideas in IT: what data is, how it gets stored, and how it can best be used.

    This foundational IT training doesn't directly relate to an IT skill or an IT ability. Instead, it focuses on the ideas, concepts and terms that IT depends on. But those are core ideas for any business, organization or job that uses digital technology.

    More details


    Understanding what a computer system is, what role a digital network has in the broader picture, and what data can actually do for a company — these are big questions that depend on basics. You'll learn them with this course.

    After finishing this CompTIA training, you'll know how to think with and talk about the most fundamental ideas in IT: what data is, how it gets stored, and how it can best be used.

    For managers with CompTIA products, this CompTIA training can be used to onboard new or aspiring IT professionals, curated into individual or team training plans, or as a CompTIA reference resource.

    IT Concepts and Terminology: What You Need to Know

    This IT Concepts and Terminology training covers basic IT topics including:

    • Writing and understanding different ways of representing data
    • Using the right terminology and tools to access and edit data types
    • Grasping the basics of computing and processing
    • Thinking with what data and information represent in the modern business world

    Who Should Take IT Concepts and Terminology Training?

    This foundational IT training is considered foundational-level CompTIA training, which means it was designed for non-technical professionals or aspiring IT professionals with no experience at all.

    Basic IT user training. Even if someone was good behind the wheel, if they tell you they don't know what a highway is, what road signs mean, or what the red and green flashing light thing is, you'd doubt their ability to drive. Don't make that same mistake with technology. Learn the vocabulary and concepts that make your computer run, your networks connect and your data work.

    New or aspiring IT professionals. If you plan to have a career in the IT world, one of the first and most important steps in that journey is knowing the words and ideas you'll be dealing with. This foundational IT course provides you with what you need to understand what IT delivers for organizations, and never sound like you're a fish out of water.

    I really enjoy teaching someone a topic that was difficult for me to learn so they don’t have to go through the same pain that I did while learning that topic.

    James brings more than 30 years of IT experience to his training. He got his start in IT volunteering for a nonprofit and becoming their defacto IT pro — while using an MS-DOS portable computer. Before joining CBT Nuggets, James did freelance IT work, and wrote and reviewed technical books. His hobbies include photography, hiking, and traveling, especially to Eastern Europe and Russia.
