I'd been on the service desk for four years and every security role wanted experience I had no way to get. The CPENT labs were the first time I'd actually broken into something rather than read about it. Three months after the exam I had two offers.
IT Support Analyst Penetration Tester
The instructor had actually run incident response, so when I asked what really happens in the first hour of a breach the answer didn't come off a slide. That is the thing that got me through the interview.
Network Technician SOC Analyst
I did the whole thing online around a full-time job and never felt like the remote cohort was the lesser option. The labs run in the browser, so I could practise on a work laptop I'm not allowed to install anything on.

Everything else you're probably wondering
Straight answers to the questions we get asked most. If yours isn't here, ask us directly — we reply within one working day.
Still not sure?
Talk to an advisor who has actually delivered these courses, not a call centre.
Ask your questionDo I need existing cyber security experience?
Not for the entry-level certifications. A general IT background — helpdesk, networking or systems administration — is enough to start with Certified Network Defender. The advanced tracks such as CPENT do assume prior hands-on experience, and we will tell you honestly if you are not ready for one yet.
Is the certification exam included in the price?
Yes. Every course price includes the official exam voucher and the official courseware from the accrediting body. There is no separate exam fee to budget for.
What happens if I don't pass first time?
You get a free retake. Most people pass first time, but the retake is included so a single bad day does not cost you the certification or another course fee.
Can my employer be invoiced directly?
Yes. We invoice employers directly and can work to a purchase order, so you do not have to pay up front and claim it back. Tell us on the enquiry form that your employer is funding it and we will send everything your finance team needs.
How much time does it take each week?
Live courses run as full days across a set week. Self-paced study is typically six to eight hours a week over a few months, and the lab environment stays available throughout so you can practise around your job.
Is the training in person or online?
Both. You can attend in person or join the same live cohort online, and the hands-on labs run in your browser either way — nothing needs installing on a work laptop you may not control.
Ready to make the first move?
Tell us where you are now and we'll map the fastest route to where you want to be. No obligation, no pressure — just a straight answer from someone who works in the field.
