Why should I choose to study CompTIA & EC-Council Certifications?

If you currently have little to no IT experience, gaining professional IT and Cyber Security qualifications through CompTIA and EC-Council will provide an entry point into this exciting and well-paid industry.

Having earned your CompTIA and EC-Council certifications, you will have your knowledge validated by industry recognised awarding bodies, which can be used to gain employment internationally.

Students new to IT

Many delegates undertaking CompTIA IT certifications have never worked in the IT sector or have a limited knowledge of IT. As such, CompTIA certifications enable everyone interested in entering this industry, to gain the knowledge and confidence required to get into their first IT job roles and work their way towards more senior IT and Cyber Security jobs.

Is the Cyber Security Specialist package suitable for me?

If you want to become an Ethical Hacker but currently don’t have the IT certifications required to get started, this course makes for an excellent entry point, as you will gain the fundamental knowledge and certificates required to support your Cyber Security studies.  

This Cyber Security training course would suit:

  •    IT professionals looking to advance their careers in Cyber Security.
  •    Students who are considering an IT career in Security or Networking.
  •    Professionals who work in areas requiring a broad understanding of IT.
  •    Individuals looking to move into the Cyber Security industry.

Prerequisites

While there are no official prerequisites to enrol on this Cyber Security Specialist training package, it would be beneficial if you have a basic understanding of IT or have already earned your CompTIA IT Fundamentals Certificate and CompTIA A+ Certificate.
