the most trusted source for computer security training, certification and research


Community SANS

The Community SANS format offers the most popular SANS courses in your local community in a small classroom setting - most courses have fewer than 25 students. The course material is delivered over a six day period, just like it is at a larger SANS event, we just deliver it in your own community at a discounted cost for tuition and travel expenses.

Community SANS benefits include:

  • Brings SANS to your local community (so you can go home at night)
  • Instructors trained by SANS Fellows like Eric Cole and Ed Skoudis.
  • Full set of books and access to audio files
  • Opportunity to network with like-minded students from your local community
