NO, check the requirements for a education to be considered, your degree must be certified by the school that all your courses were conducted in English.

If course done in Canada then no need for school to certify it was done in English since here only language used is either in English or French.

This is from the IRCC website:
I graduated from an English-or French-language high school/college/university. What can I use to show that I can communicate in one of the official languages when I apply for citizenship?
You may send a transcript, diploma or certificate showing that you graduated from a secondary school or from a post-secondary program in Canada or abroad. These materials must show that the program was in English or French. A single course in an official language is not enough to meet this requirement.

You need to have finished a program at a school, college or university. A single computer course is not enough. In particular you have to make sure that the program you finished was offered by a school, college or university, i.e. an official secondary or post-secondary institution.

Comptia is a private organization that hands out certifications. It is neither a school, nor a college, nor a university. So their certificates don't work for Citizenship.

Was that a degree or a short course? Better call IRCC and check with them.

***
You attended or are currently attending a secondary or post-secondary education program in English or French, either in Canada or abroad.

• A degree, diploma, certificate or official transcripts from a secondary or post-secondary education program showing you studied in English or French, in Canada or abroad.

Comptia ist not a post-secondary institution, so the point if this was a degree or a short course is irrelevant. Post-secondary instutions are universities, colleges and the like.

Ah, not familiar with Comptia.
So if I get a bookkeeping course for 1 year at Langara College in Vancouver, I will get a certificate after finishing the course, can I use it as proof?

I did a one year course, at a college, the course was called computer technician and was also awarded comptia A+ can this be accepted as one year post education?

You must be enrolled in or have received a degree from a recognized high school or post-secondary institution. Having completed a single course offered by a college doesn't count. You need to have an actual degree conferred (High Schol graduation, Bachelor, Master, License,...)
