A hands-on ethical hacking training where you work directly on real-world hacking labs with expert guidance and practical challenges.

Do I get a certificate?

Yes! You’ll receive a PDF certificate and a trophy-style “Shell Sessions Wall Trophy” to show off your achievement.

When and how will I receive my certificate?

After completing the course, your Shell Sessions certificate (PDF) will be emailed to you. Your “wall-trophy” certificate will be sent by post within 4 weeks of course completion.
