    The good thing about this is that the Ethical Hacking course is free on NetAcad and the CTF event is only $100 (so less than £100 and far less than a lot of entry level Ethical Hacking courses out there).

    This may be something I'll do myself :)

    Wow OK this is the best one ive seen for awhile while. The sort of course any of us might benefit from.

    This has me thinking about when I retire. I think even if I retire, I’d do things like this to keep the old brain cells going. It doesn’t always have to be for me to make more money in work

    Thanks for sharing, while it looks good part of me wonders how many more certifications will these vendors produce. I have even started to see individuals starting their own companies and selling certification in certain IT and security areas.
     
    Certifications: A few.

    Yeah, added to that it doesn't cost the earth like either the PenTest+ for the CEH - however maybe it's not as high level as them, but for someone who doesn't have any or alot of pentest knowledge, it may be the best option.

    Plus like you said, those learning paths don't always have to be for money :)

    Know what you mean, there's a new training provider springing up every five minutes - and the quality varies alot. The good thing is that, at least, Cisco has already made a name for themselves in the Cyber Security field, so it's already a trusted and known name :)
