Cybersecurity Training Delivery Methods

Microassist offers cybersecurity classes in three formats:

Instructor-Led (ILT): Classroom group training where the students and instructor are in the same physical location. These are typically held during the weekday.
Virtual Instructor-Led (VILT): Students and the instructor meet at the same time with real-time interaction and use technology to span the distance. Like ILT courses, these are usually held during the workweek.
Online Self Study: Students study independently and interact with the instructor and other students via a once-per-week, online, two-hour, live instructor session for course content reviews and student certification exam preparation. Discussion forums include questions and answers as well as instructor-led discussions on current information security topics. Students access these classes at their convenience. The weekly discussion forum can be scheduled after standard work hours.

All courses are customizable for content, length and delivery.
Contact our Training Team for details.
