CompTIA Security+T Certification

The CompTIA Security+ certification tests for security knowledge mastery of an individual with two years on-the-job networking experience, with emphasis on security. The exam covers industry-wide topics, including communication security, infrastructure security, cryptography, access control, authentication, external attack and operational and organization security.

There is compelling evidence that neither technologies nor policies alone offer effective protection against security threats. Theft and destruction of intellectual property takes place despite the presence of firewalls, encryption and corporate edicts. The industry and governments around the world must have a well-trained workforce to effectively combat hackers, attacks and security threats. CompTIA Security+ is the standard validation for that workforce.

Audience

This curriculum is targeted at IT professionals who wish to gain CompTIA Security+ certification. Participants should have a minimum of two years networking experience and possess a thorough knowledge of TCP/IP. CompTIA recommended that the Security+ test candidate have the knowledge and skills equivalent of those tested for in the CompTIA Network+ certification exam.

Keimos Networking Courses

Our courses use simulations extensively to provide opportunities for students to learn & practice skills-based content. This “learning by doing'” model is far more effective than the traditional true/false, multiple choice approach. Live application software is not needed.

Interactive content is used often in the courses to engage the learner's attention, to reinforce and exercise skills being taught, and to provide feedback on the learner's grasp of a skill or concept.

CoursesAlthough we provide tailor-made courses there are standard courses available that meet the needs of the IT industry. These courses provide the student with real life knowledge and certification that is recognised worldwide. Some of the courses that we currently provide offer no certification but will provide the student with enough knowledge and skills to compliment many of the certification courses. We also know how good the courses are because as well as helping in the development of the courses, Microsoft uses NETg courses to train its employees.Accredited Courseware.NETg strives for the closest working relationship possible with Microsoft, Cisco, CIW, Netscape, CompTIA, Novell, IBM and Oracle to produce not only the most up-to-date library of courses, but also the most relevant content. By having courseware that follows the "official curriculum" students are assured of getting the most relevant content directly from source. The courseware is mapped directly to the development partners certification programmes, resulting in a comprehensive e-Learning experience for the student. With students from the likes of ICI, AT&T, Logica, Lufthansa and the NHS, some of the biggest companies in this country, the courses have already proved there worth.
CertificationWhy Certify?Certification programmes deliver substantial benefits that can directly contribute to the goals of an individual or organisation. The bottom line: your projects are completed on time and within budget, and technical solutions (and professionals) perform. As technology becomes more complex and support demands continue to increase, certification programmes provide you with an objective, consistent method for hiring or training employees or for getting employment.Certification - An Investment in the FutureRecent studies have documented the financial and performance benefits of certification. These studies demonstrate that training and certification programmes are strategic investments in the intellectual capital of the organisation.
Studies performed by Dataquest and IDC indicate that certified employees: Provide greater knowledge and increased productivity. Deliver a higher quality of support. Assure a certain level of expertise or competence. Demonstrate higher morale and commitment. Also, studies comparing organisations committed to certification versus those that did not found that those who certified their employees: Reduce organisational training costs. Recovered their investment in training and certification in less than nine months. Experienced, on average, 34% less unscheduled down time. Experienced 39% lower cost per downtime incident. Who else provides similar training?http://www.discoveryvip.com/http://www.cctglobal.com/http://www.computertim.com/http://www.oootraining.com/http://www.ckls.org/~crippel/computerlab/tutorials/http://www.trainingmag.com/training/index.jsphttp://www.detc.org/http://www.microsoft.com/traincert/default.asphttp://www.trainingregistry.com/ Distance learning/Self StudyAll courses are designed to offer you the student the convenience of studying from the comfort of your own home or workplace, working at your own pace in the way that is most suited to your lifestyle and career commitments. Working at your own pace means that you are more likely to learn the subject in-depth as you are not under pressure to compete with other students who may be better or worse than, so you will never lag behind or be waiting for somebody to catch up.The National Education Training Group (NETg), the developer of award winning interactive e-Learning solutions, is the supplier of the software used to train you. NETg's unique Skill Builder system allows pre-assessments at every stage of the course to save time, trouble and money by elimination of the need for trainees to work through what they already know before moving on to later stages in the course dedicated to the skills they really want to learn. Customised Courses and Training Training is modular based with self-assessment testing to ensure that you only move on to the next module after successfully completing the previous one - aiding understanding, boosting information retention and enhancing the learning experience. Because of this modular approach and by having some 800 courses to select from, we can tailor your course to meet your specific needs or level of ability and by staging courses we can ensure that you are gaining qualifications throughout the course.Our ultimate aim is to target your training needs and provide you with an up-to-date and enjoyable learning experience.  Accredited CoursewareWe only provide courseware that follows the "official curriculum", so that as a student you are assured of getting the most relevant content. The courseware is mapped directly to the development partners certification programmes, resulting in a comprehensive e-Learning experience for you the student. Every course meets the learning objectives required to pass the certification exams and to effectively employ technology on the job. With students from the likes of ICI, IBM, LearnDirect, Lufthansa, Shell and the NHS, some of the biggest companies in this country, the courses have already proved there worth. E-Learning using Computer Based TrainingAll our courses use Computer Based Training (CBT) software to train and assess you as you progress through your lesson. We use CBT, because E Learning does not vary in quality from day to day, class to class, or environment to environment, the information conveyed and presentation remains consistent. Studies indicate that technology based training can reduce learning time requirements due to the self paced instruction, familiar media, immediate interaction, feedback and personalised instructionThe benefits of e-Learning are: Learning Curve -            Up to 60% Faster Content Retention -        Up to 25 - 60% Higher Learning Gains -             Up to 56% Greater Training Time needed -    Up to 70% QuickerE-Learning provides motivation through immediate responsive feedback and individual involvement. As a student you are given greater flexibility, control and responsibility for your own learning process.SupportKeimos provides free technical support for issues involving installation of the course software and tutorial support for Desk Top courses, web design and introductory networking courses. For the more advanced courses support is optional, but where you choose to have support this is provided by Keimos or International Correspondence Schools (ICS) who pioneered the concept of distance learning as far back as 1890. In ICS a student will have the back up of the world leader in distance learning with the re-assurance of support from qualified advisors.i-Net+i-Net+ certification is vendor-neutral and will validate an individual's baseline knowledge of Internet concepts.
