"One of the best and most in depth IT certification course training I have ever experienced. I have taken Network +, Security+, CEH, CCNA and CISSP and have no regrets. The hands on training and the in depth knowledge the instructors have is second to none. The instructors not only teach you theory but allow you to put in the practice in production environment scenarios. I work in the IT field and some of the things I have learned in their courses I have applied in my own company and has benefited everyone. They are definitely a great place to learn and hone the skills you already have."

    Exam and Certification Requirements:

    This training helps to prepare the student for the CISSP Certification exam.

    (ISC)2 uses Computerized Adaptive Testing (CAT) for its English language CISSP exam. This means that each answer you give is scored by an algorithm that determines how well you know the exam content. Your score throughout the exam is used to determine the following questions helping the algorithm build up a complete picture of your knowledge.

    The CAT process means that the more you know, the fewer questions you have to answer, turning the previously 6-hour exam into a 3-hour one. Depending on your knowledge, you will be asked between 100-150 questions.

    The exam is comprised of questions related to the eight domains of the CBK. Students can take the exam at any Pearson Professional Center. The exam voucher cost $699.
