How long for cert?

Hey guys...I just passed my network + plus on Monday and I was wondering when would I get my certificate. I forgot what my instructor told I guess because I was so excited for passing the exam..:D

I'm sure it varies, but I thought I would ask....

Thanks!

Took 3-4 weeks to get mine.

Thanks and that sounds about right because I just got an email from my instructor and he said that it will take at least a couple of weeks or so via standard US mail and that he was going to send me a link for something for something else.

I got mine 10 days after I passed the test.

You have to sign in and confirm your address and such, takes a few days for them to update the site with the fact that you passed the test. Then they say it can take 6 weeks, but it is usually quicker than that.

Ok, gotcha and yeah, I hope it doesn't take that long. I already added "CompTIA Network + certified" logo on my website cause I also have my own IT business.

If anyone questions it you can always email them an online transcript.

Also you can print your PDF version as soon as your online profile is updated with the pass. That is what I did for proof until my actual one came in the mail with my id card.

Funny thing..got a email from comptia and I updated my information and "poof"....my online cert was there with my name on it, so yes, I could print it off until I get the original in the mail.

I sat for my Network+ exam on 08/07/2010. I was able to see the updates on CompTIA site 2 days later. I just got my certificate in the mail on Monday so it took about 2 weeks.

Today is 2 weeks since I gook Security+. It hit the mail about a week ago and I should be expecting it any day now.

How long does it supposed to take to show up on the CompTIA website?? I passed my Network+ a little over a week ago but still don't see any sign of it under my online CompTIA account..

I would get in touch with someone at comptia then. In my experience it took no more than 48 hours to show on their website.

Okay Thanks I did. Turns out I had two accounts with the same email, since I took my A+ at Prometric and my Network+ at Pearson VUE. So they will have to merge my two accounts, which will take 3 days.
