Why Do This Course
Move From Defence to Offence
You stop guarding the wall and start testing where it gives way.
The Whole Attack Chain
Recon, social engineering, network and host attacks, then post-exploitation.
Write the Report Too
Reporting and communicating results sits inside the course, with its own module.
Where These Skills Could Take You
Penetration Tester, Ethical Hacker, Cybersecurity Analyst. Breaking in is the job, the report is the product, and the permission slip makes it a career.
Cyber Security Analyst
Watches for threats and closes the gaps that get found.
Penetration Tester
Tests systems on purpose, with permission, then reports back.
Ethical Hacker
Thinks like an attacker so a business can fix it first.

Common Questions
Do I need Security+ first?
It is recommended, not required. CompTIA suggests it, along with some hands-on security experience.

About three months. It is self-paced, so the timing bends around you.
What does it cost?
Pay upfront, pay in four, or use a longer plan. Ask an advisor for the figure.

Online and self-paced. The cohort connects through Slack and the course platform.
How is the exam run?

Is this legal work?
Yes, when it is authorised. Testing happens with written permission from the system owner.
What if I am new to IT?
You can join without prerequisites. Most people find the defensive fundamentals an easier first step.
Is this nationally recognised training?
CompTIA PenTest+ is recognised globally and named directly in security job ads. It is an industry certification, not nationally recognised training. In this field, the CompTIA name is what gets read first.
How do I check the details first?
Ask for the course guide and speak to an advisor. Fees and timings are worth confirming.
