How important are the Labs in Security+

---

I have been studying on udemy which has no access to labs, when i joined ITProtv i noticed a whole bunch of
labs for the comptia certs. Are these a must do and will the feature in the exams?

Thanks in Advance

Hey @Cale-Morris, labs help to apply the concepts to tangible implementation. While not a requirement, they can help tremendously with performance-based questions requiring practical application of the technologies you are learning about.

I hope this helps, great question and look forward to hearing from you.

Hi @wes-bryan I had a similar question about the labs.

Does the course ever specifically direct you to complete - for example- Virtual Lab Course 1?

Or is this more something you do after finishing the videos?

Thanks!

Hey @Erik-Swain good question, there is no specific requirement to perform labs, however where there is a match in the concepts, I would always encourage any member to get hands on lab experience to help re-enforce the application of concepts taught, this can have a tremendous benefit to an exam candidate.

Thanks @wes-bryan!
