Are you sure that you weren't looking at www.sans.edu course when you meant www.sans.org ? That could be the only reason I would think SANS would require a bachelors degree. I went through their class this year at their conference in Orlando and my class was taught by Dr. Eric Cole and he did a fantastic job. He was very easy to learn from, covered everything you needed to take the exam and presented in a very informative way. Just be prepared for your brain to become mush :) I would highly recommend any SANS course the instructors they have are TOP NOTCH and are always willing to help the students that are there to learn. Hope that helps! Thanks, Mark On 28 Nov 2006 19:27:51 -0000, jlehman () mail esignal com <jlehman () mail esignal com> wrote:
I was going to take the SANS mentor class for the CISSP. But I have just discovered that they are requiring a B.S. degree, which I don't have. I have been in the I.T. field as a sys admin/telecommunications/pseudo security person for 10 years now. I have achieved SANS silver GCIH and CGNA in the past year and a SCP (snort certified professional). I don’t have a B.S. because I decided to be a chef,a nd got a culinary arts degree. I did that for 15+yeard and made it to my goal, but I make much more today than I did as a restaurateur. So people, should I continue to peruse the SANS track, or somehow get that B.S and get the CISSP eventually? I see many job postings that are asking for CISSP certs.
