  6. Once the ID’s have been created, please collect and put all IDs in the attached spreadsheet along with the students full name, home address, telephone number, email address, and school name.  The spreadsheet should be returned to me ASAP @ rchaney1@houstonisd.org

Please Note that the Career ID Portal does NOT

  • supply an exam voucher to the student
  • schedule a specific time or date for the student’s certification exam

Each student will still need to receive two exam vouchers to take the A+ exam, and one exam voucher if they are taking Network+ (please contact Jettie Greene if you need additional vouchers). 

And each student will still need to schedule a time and location to take the exam.  To schedule exam students should visit: http://certification.comptia.org/resources/registration.aspx
