I know you can by the EC-Coucil CEH book at Barnes and Noble for 75 bucks. It should give you a pretty good understanding of what the course will entail.

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0972936211/ref=wl_it_dp/103-8029621-6183802?%5Fencoding=UTF8&coliid=I2YT787IAISYN&v=glance&colid=21GEEQ4AL0BVL

If you're unsure, give that book a shot and then reasses.

List,

I was looking to see if anyone had any exposure to ec counsil's CEH course.
I have heard mixed views on the ec counsil, but nothing about their courses. I dont really care about getting a certification, but I wouldnt mind getting one also. My main concern is, learning quality stuff that I can put to use in a security career.

As im sure everyone feels the same, I Dont want to drop my money on something that looks good,
but really isnt going to help build knowledge.

for a quick reference, here is a link to the exam/course I found

http://www.mile2.com/certified_ethical_hacker_training_v3.html

and http://www.eccouncil.org/CEH.htm

Does anyone know if this is quality stuff, or is there something out there better? (A major factor to me looking at this was, I can find a class local so I dont have to travel)

Regards,
Chris
