Training & preparation

How you prepare is your call.

SkelerSecurity certifications are performance-based assessments — like OffSec and EC-Council, the exam stands on its own. You can train with SkelerSecurity directly, prepare through an authorized partner institute, or attempt the assessment self-paced. No training is required to sit the exam.
