This CCSK version 5 and Cloud Security course is a unique blended program. Part of that program is online instructor-led (synchronous) training. In the sidebar you can get an overview of the content. If you have not registered yet, you can do so here.

This page has up-to-date resources for access to the live online sessions and is a great one to bookmark in your browser. As a reminder, you will have access to all sessions and all recordings for the life of your CCSK exam token (which is 2 years, and extendable).

Session links

The Adobe Connect session links are as follows (Adobe login required, provided to learners):

Sprint day 1 / Sprint day 2 / Sprint day 3 / Sprint day 4 / Sprint day 5.

All of these have multiple recordings. These can be found by logging into your Adobe Connect account and search for "CCSK v5" (use capitals in the search box to defeat any '"spelling correcting" browsers). You probably want to sort that page by most recently created, and September 2024 is the first version 5 session.

For CCAK sessions look here.

CCZT, and live sessions are also planned.

The sprint sessions are 2 hours a day (with a 5-minute break).

Session goals

The goal of the sprint sessions is to go through all the material top-down. It is NOT about reading many slides, but it is meant to be very interactive. You’d do well to go through at least part of the material in advance of the session and prepare your questions.

In between those sessions, I will be watching all discussion areas and responding when needed.
