[161] Why CompTIA are the MSP Industry's Best-Kept Secret

In this episode, Richard speaks to MJ Shoer, the Chief Community Officer at CompTIA. After studying for a degree in computer science, he worked in sales for startup software and hardware companies.

He taught himself everything he needed to know about technology and became an IT director. He went on to found his own successful MSP, which he sold to a competitor. After doing some consulting, he got his first role at CompTIA.

He joins Richard Tubb to explain who CompTIA are and how they help MSPs. MJ shares the story of his own journey in the tech world and what it was like to experience the start of connectivity.

Richard asks MJ about the ChannelCon events and what it means for members that CompTIA is a company information sharing and analysis organisation. They also look at being a local member and the CompTIA Spark Initiative.

MJ also shares his thoughts on the changing relationship between MSPs and vendors, how to encourage younger people into careers in IT, and how CompTIA are playing a part in advancing women in the industry.
