"I attended the Cyber Crime Foundation course with very little knowledge.. The instructor was fantastic, explained subjects in depth and allowed a good amount of time for questions. I came away with lots of knowledge ready to use what I've learnt in my day-to-day role."
JS. (8/1/2024 (Monday) to 12/1/2024 (Friday))
