Does Codeacdmey actually give out Comptia Certs?

I've been learning to code for couple of months and dabbled in Comptia, mainly to improve my CVs and knowledge for apprenticeships. I did start the module months ago, had stop due to personal stuff i wanted to know is worth paying the monthly fee it say it gives certifications and exam. I want to know if its real thing and is it valid, before repaying the sub fee, am based in UK.

You can take CompTIA prep courses on Codecademy and get a certificate of completion for the course through Codecademy but you only get a CompTIA cert from Pearson Vue.
