EC-Council Certified Ethical Hacker (CEH) Virtual Classroom

Course Overview

With a growing skills-gap in Cyber Security globally, there are more job vacancy’s than there are certified candidates to fill them. This is a frustrating problem for employers, who are struggling to find the right talent for their organisations. This makes this one of the most lucrative and rewarding sectors to move into, with UK average salaries peaking around £60k for Ethical Hackers in London and the career progression opportunities are also excellent.

To become a Certified Ethical Hacker and work within the Cyber Security industry, you need to undertake specialist training from an international recognised awarding body, like EC-Council, through an award-winning provider, like e-Careers. The EC-Council Certified Ethical Hacker Certificate includes the training and exams required to become an Ethical Hacker, and embark on a career in the Cyber Security sector. 

As the most comprehensive Ethical Hacking course, you will grasp the essential principles and techniques of ethical hacking, with the goal of helping you become a professional capable of systematically inspecting network infrastructures, to discover security vulnerabilities, preventing malicious hacks and attacks in the future.
