Serving Scott AFB and the Metro East Defense Community
IT Dojo delivers CompTIA training for defense professionals across the Scott AFB area, including:
- USTRANSCOM (US Transportation Command) — Headquartered at Scott AFB and responsible for the Department's global transportation and distribution network. A large IT and logistics systems workforce with DoD 8140 certification obligations tied to information system access and contractor task order requirements.
- Air Mobility Command (AMC) — Also headquartered at Scott, with a substantial communications and IT operations workforce including active duty, civilian, and contractor personnel carrying IAT-level certification requirements.
- DISA at Scott AFB — The Defense Information Systems Agency operates a major location at Scott. DISA is one of the most compliance-focused organizations in the DoD, with rigorous and actively enforced 8140 certification requirements for its personnel and supporting contractors. Security+ and Network+ are near-universal baselines for the DISA workforce.
- Metro East Illinois Contractor Community — Boeing Defense, Leidos, CACI, and other firms supporting USTRANSCOM, AMC, and DISA programs with IT and cybersecurity personnel who must maintain certification compliance as a condition of their task orders.
- 375th Air Mobility Wing — The host wing at Scott with communications, IT, and cyber personnel across multiple functional areas carrying DoD 8140 obligations.
CompTIA Training for DoD 8140 Compliance at Scott AFB
Scott AFB is home to three of the DoD's most logistics- and communications-intensive organizations: USTRANSCOM, AMC, and DISA. Together, they generate a large and consistent demand for DoD 8140 certification training — particularly Security+ and Network+, which are baseline requirements for the broad IT operations and communications workforce these organizations maintain. DISA's presence is especially significant: as the agency responsible for operating and defending the DoD Information Network (DoDIN), DISA enforces certification compliance more rigorously than many other DoD organizations, and both government and contractor personnel supporting DISA at Scott are subject to these requirements.
The Metro East Illinois defense community has fewer local IT training options than larger coastal defense markets. The nearest significant training infrastructure is across the Mississippi in St. Louis, requiring a commute that most Scott-area personnel would rather avoid. IT Dojo's live remote format eliminates that barrier entirely — students attend from home or any approved location with an internet connection, without sacrificing the live instructor interaction and structured exam preparation that drives certification success.
