Thank you @Rick Butler , always there for assistance.

@Stephen Schneiter, any updates regarding the PenTest voucher distribution? Thanks.

Is there a way an instructor can monitor a student's work with in CertMaster Learn and Lab? Does either program allow for an integration with a LMS? TIA.

I'm in the boat as you.

Hello, When will the vouchers from attending the PenTest TTT be disbursed? Thanks.

I experienced the same issues with the recent PenTest TTT sessions.

Good points from @Rick Butler . I'll speak from an empirical and anecdotal views. I'll preface my remarks that I have done both types of institutions referenced in this thread.
