    Hello @Jamie Ahinasi-Blondy, I think this group will be able to give you some feedback. If I might get started, I would ask for a little more information, such as what type of training are you going to offer, Security+, preparing attendees for certification or what do you have in mind?

    @Stephen Schneiter, Thank you Stephen for your kind reply. So, I intend to start with Security+ and I think in some instance, i would be preparing them for certification. There are other times I might just give them a little insight into some aspect of the Security+ base on the needs identified at the time. Yea, so I start with security+.
    Thank you

    Have you selected a training curriculum?

    I would say the basics would be:
    1. The overview information on the certification, itself
    2. The certification objectives.
    3. CertMaster Learn for Security+ - ELearning/Official Curriculum materials
    4. CertMaster Labs for Security+ - Virtual Labs
    5. CertMaster Practice for Security+ - Exam Practice Testing
    There are other various videos and other training solutions out there, such as ITProTV, Udemy, Cybrary, with some of the instructors for these resources frequenting CIN.

    From the looks of you wanting to start with Security+ related training. I know a fun interactive lab or concept to do is to crack password hashes. What I would do for this (if you wanted to do it yourself), is to use a Kali Linux VM, the Rockyou wordlist, and a tool like John the Ripper or Hash cat.

    You could take a random entries in the list of that wordlist and run it through a hashing algorithm like MD5 and then have them perform a dictionary attack on the hashes.
