Just got my welcome package!
After getting a certificate at school today, I come home and I see the CompTIA packet waiting for me. I opened it up, and it turns out that they print it out on regular multipurpose paper.
I probably shouldn't be too disappointed, I got two certificates in one day, and it only took 20 days for the packet to get here.
I'm probably going to frame it and laminate my card tomorrow.
Did any of you guys get nice certificates?

But the important thing is that you passed and that you're listed in the CompTIA website.
Congrats!
I thought of the jagged circles as intentional. It kinda reminds me of the previous Knoppix theme, which I thought was pretty cool.
I guess I shouldn't expect much from an entry-level cert, but when I get CCNA(not anytime soon), it better look damn good.
I'm surprised the white margins are even, I thought they'd screw that up for sure.
Does your Net+ certificate look the same?
thanks...
There's the certificate,
an ID card printed on harder paper(like a mini certificate),
a kind of addition to the certificate that lists the standards, and says "____ is proficient in ....",
an application to become an authorized CompTIA service center,
a short congratulatory letter outlining what comes with the package, and finally,
a postcard-sized ad to be a member of CompTIA at a discounted price.
I thought there was a pin or something, but I guess they stopped doing that.
Congrats on your pass!
The Network+ certificate is exactly the same.

***I'll add you can Capitalize the word 'I' to show a little respect for yourself too.
'i' before 'e' except after 'c'.... weird?
Thanks Plantwiz for the additional info about the pin/badge.
This forum has the best fellas you can find anywhere...
keep up the good work guys.
Thank you too, plantwiz. I don't think they're worth the money either. :P
Got some membership offer e-mail from CompTIA the other day and if you signed up for a year or two you would receive a certificate of membership + a pin of your choice etc (the pin you could pick was depending on what certs you had). I think they should have given that pin in the welcome package for the certification, not the membership package.
Will they improve ? Time will tell
If you want a MCP certificate, just take a blank peice of paper, and write;
