Dimensions summary
This listing offers one pricing dimension: a single-user license for the SEC497: Practical Open-Source Intelligence (OSINT) course. You buy access for one individual under a contract. There are no tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons to choose from. Pricing scales by the number of licenses you purchase, since each license covers one user. To train several people, you buy multiple single-user licenses. The course material and access are tied to that one named user and are not meant to be shared.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
One license covers one named individual. That person gets access to the course materials and labs. The training, course books, test questions, and courseware are for that user's individual use only. You cannot share, resell, or use the material to teach others without written permission from SANS.
OnDemand access runs 120 days from when you start the course. Your access begins when you click Start Course, or 14 days after the course becomes available if you have not started. You can buy 45-day extensions, but access cannot extend beyond one year from the original activation date.
You buy multiple single-user licenses, one per person. Each license is tied to a named individual and cannot be shared. Organizations training several people may consult SANS about group purchasing, which offers a single procurement process and a central account to manage enrollments and track progress.
