Frequently Asked Questions

- Information Assurance (IA) and Cybersecurity professionals seeking to improve job skills or obtain a certification
- U.S. Government and Department of Defense (DoD) IA personnel with DoD 8570/8140 Requirements

Why should I take a course with you?
There are many reasons. Here are a few:
- Cybersecurity Certification exam prep “boot camp” courses focused on passing the exam
- Exam Pass Guarantee – free course retake if you do not pass certification exam
- Exam Fees/Vouchers included
- Certification pass-rates over 90%
- Technical hands-on cyber defense courses focused on improving job skills
- Best in class with outstanding reviews
- Industry expert and certified professional trainers with real-world experience
Our trainers actually practice on a daily-basis what they teach. This allows us to apply real-world experience to course content and tangible answers to questions in class. We use anecdotes, offer advice, and comprehensively answer questions like “how does this apply to the way we do access control at our location where we use 8 character passwords with a mix of upper/lower case, numbers, and special characters?”
If you’re like us, you’ve probably taken courses at “Learning Centers” or “Education Centers” that use full-time instructors. Although there is nothing wrong with this approach, we feel the real-world experience our trainers bring to the table greatly enhances the value of our courses. Application often differs from theory. We are practitioners. We not only help you pass a certification test, but can also help you solve a technical problem you’ve been struggling with at work.
What is the registration or enrollment process?
Once you register for a course on our website, you will receive a confirmation email. A week prior to the course we will send you a Course Info email with the exact location for the course, logistics information, trainer contact information, and anything else we feel you should know.

Do you offer virtual or remote training?
Yes, we offer Live Online courses. Our courses are typically offered in a live hybrid environment, where we have a mix of In-Person and Online attendees. You can find more information about our Live Online courses here.
Live Online
Alpine Security offers an effective and proven online learning experience providing the freedom to attend our cybersecurity training from virtually anywhere. Our Live Online platform reliably delivers our awesome Instructor-Led Training experience directly to attendees anywhere (home, work, vacation, etc.).
Similar to our Live In-Person training, attendees using our Live Online system have a real-time, live instructor experience. The live instructor teaches the course and provides the opportunity for remote attendees to participate in discussions and exercises with both in-person and remote attendees. Alpine Security’s Live Online system provides a fun, rich, and engaging live classroom environment that allows attendees to easily interact with instructors and fellow attendees.
Some of our courses involve hands-on activities and labs. These activities are performed via a secure cloud-accessible environment. This cloud-based environment allows remote students to follow along in real-time with labs in the same manner as local, in-person students. Most lab materials are also available outside of class times so attendees can continue to study and learn at times that work for their schedule. As an EC-Council Accredited Training Center (ATC), our cloud-based iLabs subscriptions are available 24×7 for 180 days after the start of the course.

Do I need a laptop for your courses?
You do not need a laptop – we will provide one for you. However, it is preferred you bring your own laptop for our hands-on courses. Our hands-on courses typically utilize VMware/VirtualBox for a virtual lab environment or online iLabs. Using your laptop allows you to set up and configure the course hands-on lab environment on your own system. This way, after the course is over, you can continue practicing what you learned in the course without having to worry about replicating the classroom environment or setup.
Do you offer evening or weekend courses?
Yes, please check our Training Schedule..
Private Group Training
We offer all of our courses in a private setting for your group of six or more people (organization, friends, etc.). We can conduct private sessions Live Online, Live In-Person, or Hybrid. There are several ways we handle private training:
We travel to your location and conduct the training onsite, at your location. This can be with In-Person personnel, Live Online personnel, or a combination of both.
We conduct private training for your group at our facility, located in O’Fallon, Illinois (Greater St. Louis / Scott Air Force Base Area).
We conduct Live Online private training for your group.
We arrange an offsite location (hotel, conference center, resort, etc.) for your group’s training.
We can customize the duration, hours, etc., to meet your needs…within reason – we can’t cram a 5 day CISSP course into 2 days, but we can possibly cram the 5 day CISSP training into 4 longer days (shorter lunches, earlier start and later end times).
