The challenge

A US training nonprofit needed an experienced practitioner to teach live classes to its student groups.

It wanted hands-on teaching across SIEM tools, Linux and Kali Linux tooling, AWS and CompTIA certification preparation, each run as its own hourly contract.

  • Taught AWS concepts to a student group.
  • Ran CompTIA A+ and CompTIA Security+ exam preparation with the client's question and answer material.
