Why Choose This Course
CompTIA PenTest+ is an instructor-led training course that develops practical penetration testing capability across planning and scoping, reconnaissance, exploitation, post‑exploitation, and reporting, aligned to its current exam objectives.
You learn how to plan engagements ethically and lawfully, collect and prioritise intelligence, execute attacks in on‑prem, cloud, web, wireless, and hybrid environments, and communicate findings with clear remediation guidance that stakeholders can act on.
You learn how to plan engagements ethically and lawfully, collect and prioritise intelligence, execute attacks in on‑prem, cloud, web, wireless, and hybrid environments, and communicate findings with clear remediation guidance that stakeholders can act on.
The curriculum reflects the latest version of the certification, which emphasises modern attack surfaces and performance‑based assessment of hands‑on skills.By mapping each module to the official domains, the course helps you build repeatable methods for discovery, exploitation, and post‑exploitation while maintaining evidence and engagement hygiene.
You leave with exam‑aligned content, scenario walkthroughs, and practice using common tooling so you can learn, prepare, and perform with confidence in real assessments and the certification exam. A certificate of course attendance is included.
