CISSP training - Face-to-Face or Live Virtual

ALC CISSP courses are either 100% in-person or 100% live virtual. That way you get the best training experience.

We do not offer hybrid CISSP training whereby some participants are physically in class while others are joining remotely. This invariably results in a lesser training experience. If the trainer focuses on the needs of one group, it is usually at the expense of the other. You can spare yourself the frustration of the hybrid experience with ALC fully-dedicated CISSP training.

ALC is Australia’s longest-serving provider of quality CISSP training, since 2005. Our reputation is second to none.

This 5-day CISSP Prep concentrated course provides information security professionals with a fully-immersed, minimum-distraction CISSP training and certification experience. The course covers the 8 domains of the CISSP Common Body of Knowledge as reorganised and updated in 2021. The course will broaden and deepen your understanding of the domains and give you full preparation for the (ISC)2 CISSP accreditation examination.

The Gold Standard

CISSP is long regarded as the gold standard of security qualifications. It draws from a comprehensive, up-to-date, global common body of knowledge that ensures security leaders have a deep knowledge and understanding of new threats, technologies, regulations, standards, and practices. It is based on the CBK (Common Body of Knowledge) which comprises eight subject domains that the (ISC)2 compiles and maintains through ongoing peer review by subject matter experts.

To attain the CISSP certification candidates must have a minimum of 5 years of direct, full-time security professional work experience in 2 or more of the domains of the CISSP CBK. One year of work experience may be waived by (ISC)2 if the candidate holds a four-year or higher college or university degree or approved credential. Candidates who do not meet these criteria may be given Associate status until conditions are met.

Unsure if you have adequate experience?

If you are unsure whether you meet the requisite experience criteria, please refer to the (ISC)2 web site PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENT. Please note that (ISC)2 also offers the option to become an ASSOCIATE OF (ISC)2.

Our trainers make the difference

When you attend a training course there are actually two costs – the course fee, and the value of your time. You can see the fee. But whether you get value for your time and money depends totally on the quality of the course.

Lots of things go into making a great course, but the single most important is always the trainer: their knowledge of the subject, their real world experience that they can draw upon in the class, their ability to answer questions, their communication skills. This is what makes the difference.

ALC works only with the best. When it comes to CISSP, ALC has three exceptional world-class trainers:

He is extremely knowledgeable and deli8vers the content fluidly and in as fun a way as you can get pushing through a large amount of content. Trainer was very knowledgeable and put his best foot forward to ensure training is spaced out, interleaved with interactive activities, key concepts are reinforced - given the vast coverage required for the CISSP course. Well done Ger! He's an asset to the company."

I used the highlighters all the way through the materials makings notes and colouring important concepts. This helped the training be more interactive. It was great that there were only two slides per page. It left the right amount of room under each slide to make additional notes from what the instructor was saying. This was brilliant. Our trainer Ger was great. He was patient and methodical going through all the materials and answering all types of questions. He had a great knowledge based from which to illustrate real world examples. Well done Ger. Thank you for a very informative course."

I was very happy to learn virtually as it gave me the flexibility to move around the room and feel more physically comfortable than in a normal classroom."
    Senior manager, September 2020
  • "It was a good course overall. It's very difficult to deliver a course on-line as one does not get body cues from trainees, i.e. if they're understanding the course content or not. Peter did well and is clearly experienced at what he does. A worthwhile course and would certainly recommend."
    manager, September 2020
  • "No issues with audio or video quality, encouraging everyone to be on camera enabled a more interactive and focused environment often lost in remote training. Very in-depth, covered the topics adequately and explained well. The provisioning of materials before the course start date is often lacking and this was very helpful and much appreciated. The inclusion of the sticky note pack was a nice touch that I really valued and showed an attention to detail that was much appreciated."

What our clients say

  • "Going through practice questions as a group was good. The gamification was excellent."
    | | October 2022
  • "I'd like to note that Ger is a fantastic instructor and I'd be happy to have him as my instructor again with ALC. He is extremely knowledgeable and deli8vers the content fluidly and in as fun a way as you can get pushing through a large amount of content. Trainer was very knowledgeable and put his best foot forward to ensure training is spaced out, interleaved with interactive activities, key concepts are reinforced - given the vast coverage required for the CISSP course. Well done Ger! He's an asset to the company."

  • "The guide was great and I particularly loved the stationary caddy that came with the materials. I used the highlighters all the way through the materials makings notes and colouring important concepts. This helped the training be more interactive. It was great that there were only two slides per page. It left the right amount of room under each slide to make additional notes from what the instructor was saying. This was brilliant. Our trainer Ger was great. He was patient and methodical going through all the materials and answering all types of questions. He had a great knowledge based from which to illustrate real world examples. Well done Ger. Thank you for a very informative course."

    Senior Security Assurance Engineer | | October 2020

    Senior manager | | September 2020
  • "It was a good course overall. It's very difficult to deliver a course on-line as one does not get body cues from trainees, i.e. if they're understanding the course content or not. Peter did well and is clearly experienced at what he does. A worthwhile course and would certainly recommend."
    manager | | September 2020
  • "No issues with audio or video quality, encouraging everyone to be on camera enabled a more interactive and focused environment often lost in remote training. Very in-depth, covered the topics adequately and explained well. The provisioning of materials before the course start date is often lacking and this was very helpful and much appreciated. The inclusion of the sticky note pack was a nice touch that I really valued and showed an attention to detail that was much appreciated."

I personally prefer Live Virtual Training over face to face training which saves the time of commuting to and from the training venue. Very clear instructions and easy to follow.

    Hi Peter, I wanted to express my thanks for the course the other week and especially the extra day of exam prep and review. I also just wanted to let you know I took my exam this week and passed which is a testament to your training as I went into this cold with no prior prep apart from your training and the materials provided. So thanks again for all the help as I really appreciated and wish you all the best for the future.
