Scott Jernigan wields a mighty red pen as editor in chief for Total Seminars. With a master of arts degree in medieval history, Scott feels as much at home in the musty archives of London as he does in the warm computer glow of Total Seminars’ Houston headquarters. After fleeing a purely academic life, he dove headfirst into IT, working as an instructor, editor, and writer. Scott has edited and contributed to dozens of books on computer literacy, hardware, operating systems, networking, and certification. His latest books are CompTIA Strata IT Fundamentals All-in-One Exam Guide (with Mike Meyers) and Computer Literacy: Your Ticket to IC³ Certification. Scott co-authored the best-selling CompTIA A+ Certification All-in-One Exam Guide and the Mike Meyers’ A+ Guide to Managing and Troubleshooting PCs (both with Mike Meyers). He has taught computer classes all over the United States, including stints at the United Nations in New York and the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia.
