Captiva Solutions’ proprietary training methodology ensures you maximize your training investment.
More than just getting you “through the certification exam,” our Real-Skills-for-Real-Jobs® (RS4RJ®) training methodology integrates powerful real-world skills with hands-on exercises to demystify complex theoretical concepts. It ensures the knowledge you gain is aligned with skills required of typical cybersecurity roles found in today’s workplace.
Our courses are compliant with current examination requirements of the endorsing organization, industry best-practices, and government mandates and directives, such as the Department of Defense Directive (DoDD 8140.01) and the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE) framework from NIST.
In addition, our courses have been vetted and certified by NASBA’s Continuing Professional Education (CPE) program, recognizing Captiva Solutions as a CPE sponsor for eligible courses.
Using our methodology, you gain core technical knowledge and some of the most powerful job skills required to succeed in your role. We also provide coaching, mentoring, and free post-class support to get you well-equipped as a cybersecurity professional.
A certification validates and recognizes an individual’s experience, competency, knowledge, and skills within a specific body of knowledge. Captiva Solutions’ certification preparation training programs provide instruction and/or training to understand and acquire specific competencies, knowledge, and/or skills towards industry recognized certifications, such as ISC2’s CAP and CISSP, CompTIA Network+ and Security+, ISACA’s CSX, CISA, CISM, and CRISC, EC-Council’s CEH. Below are more details on each program.
