Hi
I always wanted to attend some classes to refresh and regroup on pen
and security. Every time I go look I am just stumped at the prices.
Since I have not attended a SAN's course I could be mis judging and
perhaps the price is wel worth it.
No. Buy a couple books. I've always said, lessons are for the
unmotivated :-)
Network Penetration Testing and Ethical Hacking
Course Fee: $4,365.00
Certification Fee: $549.00
OnDemand Fee: $449.00
This kind of crap makes me angry. You get more out of a conference talk
(like at Defcon or CarolinaCon) in an hour than a whole day of stuffy
classroom and light refreshments.
its an vlive session, home type course 3 hrs every week for 12 wks.
Meh. Then the price should be even lower.
You who have experienced these types of courses, can you tell me its
worth that much?
I have, and I know a few instructors as well. Doesn't sway my opinion.
For example, CISSP boot camps and courses[1]. Oooh, PowerPoint slide
shows and bad jokes. Not the best way to learn.

PS That being said, I will be doing another lunch and learn at SANS DC
next month - but hey, those are free for people :-)
[1] Well, that was about 10 years ago for me. But from what I've heard,
same premise.
