Words Have Power

Varun Prasad Thayamkot UAE

The course was organised well. The trainer kept the classes engaging and explained the topics with much clarity.

Muhammad Usman Australia

The trainer was very thorough in explaining technical as well as managerial concepts. The best part of the lectures was explaining the concept using real-world examples and the trainer was not shy to share his personal experiences. This enabled me to relate to the problem statement by remembering the examples and answering the questions. Another good part about the trainer is his approachability; you can always ask him a question and he will satisfy you. There are a lot of things that can be talked about him. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with his training methodology. Regarding Infosec Train, I would also like to mention that they were organised except for a few hiccups with GoToMeeting at the very early stages. However, it can happen to anyone; the important thing is that they promptly addressed the issue and ensured that the rest of the learning sessions remained smooth.

Amol Vijay Wani India

Pleasure doing CISSP training with Infosec Train. Gave deeper understanding into each and every module and topic across all domains. Never felt too overwhelmed by topics or putting more effort to understand anything. Everything was explained with great detail and examples. And to do it with such ease indeed comes with trainer’s skill experience and expertise. My target was just to understand and apply the concepts at the workplace but I am glad and more than motivated to do full justice to getting the certfication now.

Chinmaya Gundanna India
