The Academy offering CPE Credits

Ahriakin

If you haven't seen it before The Academy (www.theacademy.ca) offers free how-to videos on a number of topics, short and to the point they are especially handy for open-source products that otherwise wouldn't have video training of their own. Anyway an email from them this morning had this and I figured you guys might find it handy:

Attention CISSPs! I personally spoke to ISC2 and they have advised me that The Academy's registered users can submit CPE credits for viewing our security videos. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns and I will address them with ISC2.

Don't forget to join The Academy LinkedIn Group http://www.linkedin.com/e/gis/71823/29A0DF7FB943

New videos are posted to the 'Featured Videos' section of the website.

Find our new videos at: www.theacademy.ca"

Edit: Fixed my URL...doh....

I'm already a member of The Academy group on LinkedIn.com, but I haven't really looked into what they offer for free training materials. I assume their materials being acceptable as CPEs means The Academy is now a Trusted CPE Provider to the (ISC)2.

I should mention that The Academy is an organization dedicated to making available free training and vendor materials for the creation and maintenance of security infrastructures and is sponsored by cccure.org. Their site has lots of great information and is growing in size.
