Two ways in

Start from a certification — or start from the job you want.

Either door leads to a roadmap: the exact courses and labs, with practice tests where we have them, in order. Membership covers 490+ courses and 350+ labs. 38 of the 45 roadmaps, marked + Infra Labs, also use labs from the Infrastructure Labs add-on. Different starting points. A clear path towards your next certification.

I've struggled with some of the 'theory and concepts' in CompTIA courses. I'm very much a hands-on practical learner and this has helped me grasp many concepts that I've struggled with before.

StationX is an excellent Site and Service and the best bang for your buck! […] I would highly recommend Nathan's StationX site as the go-to place for cyber security skills.

Questions

Before you join

Can I cancel?

Two clicks, from your account, any time. No calls and no emails needed. Once you've cancelled, we may show you one optional offer, such as a discount or a pause, with an equally clear No thanks. See the emails you'll get.

Am I too much of a beginner?

Roadmaps start from zero — A+ and Tech+ are the first steps. Pick a career and the roadmap shows you the right one to start with.

Do the labs need a powerful computer?

No — everything runs in your browser. Nothing to install.

Do you cover AWS, Azure and cloud in depth?

Yes, mostly through the Infrastructure Labs add-on. Membership gives all 490+ courses, unlimited attempts at the 350+ hands-on cyber labs and all 45 roadmaps. The 1,300+ cloud and vendor labs are in StationX Infrastructure Labs, a separate $149/year add-on. You never need it to join and it is never added at checkout. If a step on your roadmap uses an Infrastructure Labs lab, that step shows as locked with the price on it inside your free account — so you see exactly what Membership covers before you pay.

Is the exam included?

No. Exam fees are separate from membership. You book every exam with the organisation that awards it; for some CompTIA exams you can buy the official voucher from StationX first.

Preparing for more than one certification? Use the same membership.

Explore the certification roadmaps included in your plan.

How current is the content?

Courses, labs and roadmaps are updated continuously. Labs written for an earlier version of an exam stay available: most stay in the library, and some leave the catalogue lists but keep their own lab pages. The skills still apply, so you can keep practising on them.

Your roadmap is already built.

All 490+ courses, unlimited attempts at 350+ hands-on labs, and 1,300+ practice questions — in the exact order your roadmap needs them.
