I was able to access session 6 a few hour ago. Now I can't get access.
Am I the only one having trouble?

I passed my SecAI exam, and immediately afterward I fell sick. My physiotherapist said it was due to heavy lifting. I was like, "How? I didn't lift anything!"

This is based on a true story, but I'm recovering well, guys.
Thank you so much, Stephane, for the voucher, and thank you to our instructor for the course and all the support.

congratulations

Congratulations! I took it and passed the exam recently. The CertMaster Perform course had quite a few issues with the labs, but provided the information needed to pass the certification.

I concur. I earned over 60 different certifications, mostly paid for by employers, because I thought it would help me in two ways:

1. It would mean more certification exam courses I could teach. It turns out that some of them had zero demand for training.
2. They would add to my overall body of knowledge. Honestly, I had the knowledge even without the certification for many of them.

Figure out what you want to do and which certs will get you closer to that goal. All the rest are just distractions.

Exactly correct! I spend SO MANY YEARS when I first got into IT in 2007 playing certification Pac-Man only to realize that it was absolutely a waste of my time. I'm horrified how many VMware Certifications I focused on and the platform is mostly dead now.

Hi Folks, I will post updates on the voucher distribution in this thread. We did make a few changes in effort to try and speed up the distribution. I will post as soon as I hear a date that the emails will go out with the vouchers.

Thanks

This has been on mind as a curiosity as well.

And just think, sometime later this year you'll be able to sit for the new SY0-801 exam!

Hoping it will be a bit lighter, will have to win it over with no doubt.

The first time around that is a tough one! Congrats!
Is this for personal growth, or are you preparing to start teach Security+ content?

Personal growth.

Studying for SecAI+ and want to pass the examination asap.

Greatidea07 · Jul 9, 2026

May I check whether any of you have experience in delivering a SecAI+ in class sessions? A request came through and ask for a three days in-class delivery of SecAI+? What is your view and possibility of delivering this in three days? Thanks! Paul Wan

Well, you just have to delete "Cookies and site data" then reload with the new link, it should work without problem, you'll need to do so for all sessions you'll watch, else use private table everytime you want to watch a new session

Shea is sooo right here. Before picking up a new certification, you should consider how and when you'll need to recertify to maintain it.

@Abu Afza, yes, I will take a look to see what I can find out.

Good evening, @Stephen Schneiter. Could you please check it when you get time?

Unless your going to get paid for it. I wouldn't recommend doing certifications "just because". If there is a company hiring a certain skill or your doing consulting and their required for a certain job. Ok, but just getting certs for the sake of it. It's a waste of money and time...time being the most important.

Or AWS stuff if you really want to work in the cloud!

Dude, fantastic signature! I grew up reading SH, and that is one of the main things I attribute most to wanting to specialize in this industry when I heard it was a thing.

that login portal is long gone with the update of the website last year. Here is what's here.

My org budgets "premium" training opportunities for IS staff every-other year and this year it's my turn. I have a couple SANS certs (GCIH, GCPN) already and while I love SANS and think they're great, would really like to diversify my skill set.

I've been looking into the possibility of training with other orgs like OffSec, Hack-the-Box, Arcanium, and Antisyphon (a personal favorite). I love HtB but feel like their certs might be too new for industry-wide recognition if I need to look for employment. I hear OffSec is fantastic but very difficult and that Arcanium is great training (but doesn't offer certs).

For those who would start with "depends on what you're looking to do...", I am looking for a mix of great training and ideally would love to add a cert or more to my resume.

I would love to get some advice from those who have experience training with those and/or other orgs please! What are your success or horror stories?

Flag on the play...unnecessary foul. We don't say the M word out loud. Ughhh...

I have earned the CCAP, CIOS, CNIP, CNSP, CNVP, CSAE, CSAP, CSCP, CSIE, CSIS stackable certifications, but I don't list the badges on my LinkedIn profile. I recently did an inventory of my 60+ certifications and cleaned off all but the most essential.

Shea Bennett · Jul 8, 2026

Not to rain on the parade, but I have been waiting for mine since 2024 ;-)
