For a moment let's forget costs or course options. What is the underlying immediate need for your institution? Many courses are NICE for a tech to have, but in a bad economy, everyone needs to focus on areas where there is a significant need in order to justify any such expense. -----Original Message----- From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Pratt, Benjamin E. Sent: Thursday, October 22, 2009 2:30 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] SANS 504 Alternatives Hello everyone, I am trying to convince my boss to let me go to a SANS 504 Hacker Techniques, Exploits & Incident Handling course but, in this economy, he's concerned about cost. I told him that SANS is the best training out there but he wants me to find the cost of similar training from other vendors, if it's out there. Does anyone know of similar courses from other companies? Thanks, Ben
