Re: CISSP

I'm actually taking it right now.
I like it. The training is done by Dr, Eric Cole which does an
excellent job at explaining the different domains and giving good
examples where you might get confused.
You should also try to get the off line mp3s so you can listen to them
while driving or doing whatever.
SANS training are the best in my opinion.  This is the 4th training
I've taken with them and when compared to the different trainings from
different vendors I've taken in the past. These guys are way better.
But this is just my opinion.
good luck.
