I like training with Pentesec!  From the registration process, until the end of the course you experience their passion for sharing knowledge.
It’s not just about delivering the course, it’s a human-to-human experience, where the instructors add value by sharing their personal experience and insights.
A smooth running lab, passion, experienced instructors and the human-interaction on top of the courseware make the virtual-classroom come alive.

Erwin van Harrewijn – February 2020

Working with Greg is like having a human Google to call on, it’s fantastic. He doesn’t just explain the syllabus, but also the wider context and the history of the product evolution, which is so, so useful.

David Delchar – October 2020

I’ve just completed this course with Greg Harewood and thought it was a really well delivered course. The platform was the best I’ve used for a course, it was very close to a classroom feel.

David Stephenson – September 2020

Just wanted to thank you once more. I sat for my exam and passed it. The training and the extra time in the environment contributed immensely to this. I appreciate it.

Maqondisa Mlambo – July 2020

The instructor presented the course very well and the pace was manageable for someone who hasn’t worked with Check Point before.  The knowledge from the instructor was excellent.
