Description
An explanation of the material found in the ISC2 SSCP Exam Outline, with particular focus on what you might expect to see on the exam. If you've been considering taking the SSCP test, this is the course for you. The course offers more than seven hours of video content at a highly-competitive price, and the accompanying coursebook can be purchased from the WannaBeA website. Drawn from the instructor's own experience as an official ISC2 SSCP instructor, the course is delivered in a simple, straightforward manner, designed to help you pass the exam.
Students are encouraged to review the ISC2 SSCP Exam Outline, available for free from the ISC2 website. The course includes other recommendations and suggestions for study purposes, as well as guidance on how to approach the test, and which topics are most likely to appear. This course is not a substitute for the requisite experience-- the course content does not teach many of the basics necessary for attaining certification; students are expected to have a background in IT prior to this course. At least two years of specific experience is necessary to qualify for the certification; students should have that much knowledge, as a minimum, prior to taking this course.
WannaBeA. Success and certification are only a class away.
Who this course is for:
- Candidates seeking to pass the SSCP exam.
