Easiest way to get your team certified and truly improve your security

…and the highest first-attempt pass rates

Trusted by Enterprise Leaders

Any of this sound familiar?

Coordination Headaches

Voucher management. Multi-week scheduling conflicts. What should be a simple training request becomes a time-consuming operational headache that slows down actual strategic security work and drains your team’s productivity.

Failed Exams

When someone fails an exam, you lose far more than an exam fee. You lose weeks of productivity when they study for the retake. Certification timelines slip, compliance deadlines move, and leadership waits on results that should have already been delivered.

Little Practical Change

Most exam preparation helps you memorize the content. It’s a straightforward approach. However, cybersecurity exams aim to test competence, not memory. So, the pass rates are only 50%. That’s also why teams getting certifications often don’t improve security.

The easiest ways to get certified and see a real improvement

Intensive Bootcamps

The quickest way to get your team certified

Your team members study one week (3-5 intensive days with live instruction) and pass the exam the following week.

Self-paced MasterClasses

The least disruptive way to get your team certified

The online learning environment adjusts to your team members’ individual schedule, progress, and knowledge.

Online Bootcamps

The quickest way to get your
team certified

Our intensive bootcamp training gets your team certified fast. In 3-5 days, your team gains true understanding of security concepts—not just exam memorization. They learn how to apply principles to real-world scenarios, which not only makes the exams easier, but also makes the skills easy to transfer to their work. If you don’t want to commit your entire team at once, they can join any of our regularly scheduled public bootcamps

Expert Instruction

Our lead instructors helped create some of the most respected certifications. John Berti co-authored the first Official CISSP Study Guide and led the development of CCSP. Rob Witcher has guided thousands of security professionals for nearly a decade after leading the security team of a large multinational organization. Our instructor team brings decades of hands-on cybersecurity experience from Fortune 500 environments.

They teach understanding and practical implementation. Your team learns how to architect secure systems, evaluate risks, and implement controls—not just memorize definitions for exam day. When they truly understand the concepts, the exam becomes straightforward and they become significantly better at their actual jobs.

Complete Materials

Your team gets everything needed to pass in one complete package:

  • Intensive instructor-led sessions
  • Comprehensive course materials
  • Interactive flashcards
  • Practice questions via mobile app
  • Knowledge assessments
  • Full-length practice exams
  • Visual mind maps
  • Complete reference libraries
  • MasterClass access for select certifications

Flexible Delivery

Virtual format means no travel costs, no off-site coordination, and minimal disruption. Bootcamps last a week or less, creating minimal disruption to your team’s work.

We can organize a private Bootcamp for your team (minimum 20 participants). Your team members can also join our public Bootcamps.

One focused week vs. months of study means your operations keep moving.

Not everyone can commit to a week of intensive training. Our MasterClass delivers the same expert instruction and comprehensive materials in a flexible, self-paced format. Your team studies when it fits their schedule—during lunch breaks, commutes, or after hours.

Watch the deep dive

Self-Paced Video Learning

Your team learns from the same expert instructors who teach our bootcamps—the people who helped shape some of these certifications. Instead of live sessions, they get structured video lessons they can pause, replay, and return to as needed. 

Each module breaks down complex security topics into clear, practical explanations with real-world scenarios so the content sticks. They gain true understanding without the pressure of keeping up with a live group, and they can revisit lessons anytime as they prepare for the exam.

Here are a few sample videos from our CISSP MasterClass

Adaptive Learning Technology

Our adaptive learning system builds a customized study plan for each team member based on their target exam date, weekly availability, and—maybe most importantly—what they still need to study. Everything they do while studying tells the system where they still have weak areas, so they can focus on where it matters most. They always know what to study, how long it will take, and whether they’re ahead or behind. This structure eliminates wasted time and gives your team a clear, predictable path to certification without guesswork.

Complete Support System

Your team gets:

  • Comprehensive course materials
  • Interactive flashcards
  • Practice questions via mobile app
  • Our concise guide book
  • A detailed workbook
  • Knowledge assessments
  • Full-length practice exams
  • Visual mind maps
  • Complete reference libraries
  • Weekly live Q&A calls
  • Optional personal mentoring

Everything syncs across devices so learning continues anywhere.

Everything Your Team Needs to Pass
… and more

Some students choose to use additional resources to learn even more. But most of our students only use the resources we provide them. That makes the study process easier and faster for them because they can focus only on what they really need to study for the exams.

In addition to the study materials, we provide resources that make the practical work easier.

For example, people who get CISM certified often end up in roles where they need to review security controls. So, we give them a Quarterly Security Review template that covers the key areas—along with a PowerPoint template for presenting their findings clearly.

Similarly, people who get AAISM certified will need to evaluate third-party vendors’. So, we provide them with a Vendor/Third-Party AI Risk Evaluation Guide.

What Security Leaders Are Saying:

I wanted to reach out & say thanks again for the class you presented for the Target cohort two weeks ago, of which I was a part. The boot camp gave me the confidence, direction, and cognition to test out after months of slow, unfocused self-study.

— George J., CISSP, Target

One word, Fantastic. The way you both are able to break down the topics into succinct understandable information is impressive. I have sat in one other CISSP Bootcamp before where the instructor essentially had us highlight lines in the book for 5 days straight. As I stated above, the practice question walkthrough was great. I can tell you, I THOUGHT, I was reading questions correctly. I THOUGHT I wasn’t thinking too technical. But the walkthrough gave me proof that I wasn’t and completely changed my mindset.

— Adam D., CISSP, Deloitte

Thank you both so much for your instruction and passion in delivering the CISSP course material. It is rare to find people who have such vast knowledge and experience, as well as a commitment to education and furthering the profession. Your advice and guidance was definitely the only way I could have passed the CISSP exam, especially in such a short time frame.

— Robby B., CISSP, Scotia Bank

The community aspect of masterclass is fantastic because it gives you the opportunity to connect with others from all over the world who are in different parts of their journey and really gets you focused and helps earn confidence...

Dan VanBeek

Short videos that you can view within your own schedule in a way that makes you comfortable, but the knowledge assessments within the masterclass provide you with the ability to assess the understanding of the actual concepts...

Valery Rinconi Sllim

Investment is worth it if you follow your time because then they will give you exactly where to start, and then from there they will practically guide you to the goal. Right now that I have the C-I-S-S-P, I want to keep bringing cybersecurity...

Craig Caldwell

I came across the destination certification website and I knew the presentation, the mind maps, when they were able to advise like, this is what you should be focusing on. That's when I knew they knew what they were talking about...

Kush Behl

And I watched masterclass like three times at least. And all your words, Rob, all John's words were gold for exam. I kept repeating them in my head whenever I was going to sleep. I'm waking up, I'm just repeating those words constantly...

Asim Khwaja

Of course, destination certification, Rob and John's course absolutely is the right investment to achieve that goal basically. It's a course worth doing, and it's a course worth investing in. And it's a certification like no other...

Built for Every Stakeholder

  • For Security Leaders

  • For Training Managers

  • For Finance

  • For Your Team

Managing corporate training shouldn't add to your workload—and you need to show it's working.

You need training that delivers measurable results you can report to leadership:

Proven efficacy

Industry-leading first-attempt pass rates mean you can demonstrate your training investment actually worked. No explaining why half your team failed and needs retakes.

Strategic investment

Train the right people for the right roles. Not everyone needs CISSP—some need CCSP for cloud work, others need Security+ for foundational skills. We help you match certifications to actual job requirements.

Operational ease

No coordinating multiple vendors, managing vouchers, or babysitting logistics. One partner for all your certification needs means you focus on strategy, not administration.

Confidence building

Your team goes into exams prepared and confident, not stressed and underprepared. That confidence translates to better job performance beyond just passing tests.

Practical impact

If your team merely memorizes frameworks for the exam, it won’t improve your security. We focus on teaching the practical skills they need to use the concepts effectively.

Certify your team—the easiest way (for everyone)

Thousands of security professionals at leading companies have passed the toughest certification exams on their first attempt thanks to our training. Your team will be next.

We will map out what it will take for your team to achieve near-certain certification results with minimal disruption to their (and your) work.

We’ll walk you through the best options for your team, certification timelines, and how to fit training into your operations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can we schedule training?

For private bootcamps, we can typically get your team started within 2-3 weeks depending on your preferred dates and certification. For our regularly scheduled public bootcamps, your team members can join the next available session—we run these throughout the year. MasterClass access is immediate upon enrollment, so your team can start studying the same day.

What's the time commitment for our team?

Bootcamps run 3-5 days depending on the certification (CISSP and CCSP are 5 days, CISM is 4 days, AAISM is 3 days). Sessions typically run 8-9 hours per day via virtual delivery, so your team joins from wherever they work. MasterClasses are self-paced—most team members complete preparation in 6-10 weeks studying around their work schedule, but the system adapts to whatever timeline works for them.

What if someone on our team doesn't pass?

While we maintain industry-leading first-attempt pass rates, if someone doesn't pass, they retain access to all materials and can continue studying at no additional cost. We will have a 1-on-1 call with them to make sure they know what to focus on to make their second attempt a relatively easy pass. They can also attend our weekly live instructor calls, access updated content, and retake practice exams. We're invested in your team's success beyond just the initial training—we support them until they pass.

How do you measure pass rates?

We track pass rates differently depending on the level of student engagement with our program.

For students in our Preferred and Premier MasterClasses, we have nearly 100% accurate pass rate data because these students work directly with our instructors throughout their preparation. 

We know exactly when they sit for the exam and whether they pass on their first attempt. These students have a 93.6% first-time pass rate.

For students in our Essential MasterClasses and bootcamps, pass rate data is based on voluntary self-reporting. While we actively collect this information and the results are directionally consistent with our Preferred and Premier students, we can't guarantee the same level of accuracy since not all students report back after taking their exam.

The consistent pattern we see across all our programs: students who follow our complete preparation system and engage with the materials thoroughly have strong first-attempt pass rates, regardless of which certification they're pursuing.

Can we customize training for our team's needs?

For private bootcamps, we can adjust scheduling and pacing to fit your team's needs. Our MasterClass adaptive system automatically customizes the learning path for each individual based on schedule and knowledge—your senior architects who can’t commit to an 8-hour study time can create their own study timeline.

How do you ensure my team can actually implement what they learn?

Unlike training that focuses on memorization, we teach for genuine understanding of how to apply security principles in practice. Your team learns how to architect secure systems, evaluate real risks, and implement proper controls—not just recognize exam answers. When they face actual security decisions at work, they know what they're doing. This is also what the exams aim to test for, which is why our students consistently pass on their first attempt. Our corporate clients also consistently report their teams perform better on the job after our training.

What support is included after bootcamp?

Your team retains access to all course materials, practice exams, and our mobile apps. They can continue attending weekly live calls with our expert instructors to get questions answered. For MasterClass students, they maintain full platform access for 12 months (extendable if needed). We don't disappear after the bootcamp—we support your team through exam day and beyond. We also provide students with practical resources specifically designed to make implementing what they’ve learned easier. For example, Vendor/Third-Party AI Risk Evaluation Guide for AAISM students helps them review vendors far more quickly.

How does virtual delivery work?

All Bootcamp sessions are conducted via video conferencing with live instruction, real-time Q&A, and interactive discussions. Your team joins from wherever they work—no travel required, no conference room coordination. The experience is engaging and collaborative, not just watching recorded videos. MasterClass combines on-demand video instruction with weekly live calls for direct instructor access and personal mentoring (in Preferred and Premier tiers).

Are exam vouchers included?

We don’t force you to deal with voucher management. Instead, we direct students to reserve a suitable exam time for themselves. They pay for it and send the invoice to your finance team for reimbursement.

What are payment and volume options?

We offer transparent pricing with volume discounts for larger teams. Payment options include one-time payment (with discount) or installment plans to fit your budget cycles. For teams of 5+ people, contact us for customized pricing. We work with your procurement process and can accommodate net-30 or other payment terms standard for enterprise purchases.
