Technology leaders and business owners from across the nation convened on Capitol Hill as part of CompTIA’s annual DC Fly-In on February 5 and 6, delivering a message to members of the House of Representatives and Senate about the role smart technologies should play in building the nation’s infrastructure. CompTIA makes this unique experience available to its members – it’s a great way for those advancing the business of technology to advocate for their businesses and themselves as citizens. Attending the DC Fly-In gives you the chance to meet with your state senators and representatives to discuss challenges and opportunities within the tech industry – giving you a voice on in our government.
Can I afford this IT certification?
IT certifications can be expensive. Not only the exam cost, but also the required training to help you prepare. That said, you have options for saving money, or potentially getting your certification paid for entirely.
Always investigate to see if your employer will pay for your training and certifications.
If you are a veteran, look into GI benefits and or Vocational Rehab and Employment (VR&E).
If none of those apply to you, check out Western Governor's University (WGU) or your local employment council or workforce development office. They often have programs that will pay for job training.

This was my first time attending the Fly-In and a chance for me to see first-hand the impact CompTIA Public Advocacy has on advancing technology legislation. I had the opportunity to lead a group of members to meetings on Capitol Hill with their congressman and senators. It was an honor to walk through the halls and meet face to face with legislators while giving our members a chance to give a voice to their businesses. At the end of every meeting, contact information was exchanged and we were encouraged to keep the lines of communication open, keeping congressmen and senators aware of the issues facing their delegates. Between meetings, my group and I had some time to step into the Library of Congress, the oldest federal cultural institution in the U.S., to appreciate its beauty and history.
