How much will that cost?

And sounds good but is it even legal to educate people on illegal hacking ativities?

 

[SGT.Code]

yes it is actualy it cost a bit over 1000£ and they actualy make you sign a contract at the begining of the cours stating that you will not use the programs given or the knowlege past on to do bad things and its mostly what the cyber police and most security consultants are educated in

WOW for £1000 id hope for some hardcore training.

Tbh i dont have that money lieing around. If I had a dream that I wanted to become a Internet Security...dude, and was a tad older with a half decent income, then I would think about it.

Ive seen a few newbs trying to set up a similar course but you know when they offer a course like that for around £50, it isnt going any good.

Anyways are your you considering this course, or is it a bit to £££ for you too xD

Well the UK are back at school, and Sixth Form is really sucking.

Im taking ICT (computing), DT(systems & control), Electronics and Phyiscs.

Im doing advanced ICT, DT and Electronics. But the Physics, im reapeating last year because I did so crap then.

Then hoping to get some good grades to go yo University, to study Software Engineering.
