FAQ
Before you pick a step
I don’t have a cert yet. Where do I start?
Fund the course with PathPay if you need to spread tuition. Plans run 3, 4, 6, 9, 12 or 18 months, and exam vouchers remain separate unless otherwise noted. PathPass practice is the next step after enrollment. After you pass, PathLock keeps the letters current.
Can I use Army CA, AF COOL, or employer funding on this path?
Yes. If Army Credentialing Assistance, Air Force COOL, or employer tuition covers the course, skip PathPay and start with PathPass. After you pass, add PathLock to keep the credential working. Ask Accumentum for a quote or the voucher paperwork your funding office needs.
I already passed. Do I still need PathPass?
No. PathPass is exam prep for the test you will sit. If the letters are already on the résumé, start with PathLock™. Tracker Free is open now on PathLock.co, and paid PathLock 1.0 plans start at $15/mo.
Does PathLock replace (ISC)² / ISACA annual maintenance fees?
No. PathLock helps you earn and track CPE/CE hours so renewals do not sneak up. Annual Maintenance Fees (AMF) and membership dues still go to (ISC)², ISACA, CompTIA, and other credentialing bodies.
Can I cancel PathLock?
Yes. Manage or cancel anytime from billing in your PathLock account. Access continues through the period you already paid for.
Is PathPay insurance?
No. PathPay finances Accumentum training. It is not an insurance product.
Is PathPass a certification body?
No. PathPass is exam prep. Accumentum does not issue CompTIA, (ISC)², ISACA, AWS, or PMI credentials.
Is PathLock the same as Pathlock, Inc.?
