Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one single user license cover for this course?
One license gives one named person access to LDR514: Security Strategic Planning, Policy, & Leadership. The course runs five days instructor-led or 30 hours self-paced, includes 32 hands-on labs, and earns 30 CPE credits. Access is tied to that one learner and cannot be shared across multiple people.
How do I add more learners, and does per-unit pricing change with quantity?
You add learners by increasing the number of user units you buy. Each unit covers one person. The pricing is per unit, so cost scales directly with the count of licenses purchased. There are no tiers or included-amount thresholds in this listing that change the per-unit rate.
Does the license include a certification attempt or extended course access?
The listing prices a single user license for the course itself. Certification attempts and extended online access are handled separately by the vendor rather than bundled into this unit. For those specific add-ons, contact the vendor to confirm availability and terms.
