Do you want to earn the Offensive Security Certified Professional (OSCP) certification, but is the course too expensive? We give students the chance to earn the OSCP through a minor, fully sponsored by us.

What we offer

• The full OSCP course for 3 months, including the exam (worth €1,649)
• Supervision from experienced, OSCP-certified pentesters
• Room to ask questions and get tips
• Network contacts in the security world

How it works

• The course is self-study; you set your own pace
• You come to our office at least twice for questions, tips and guidance
• If you get stuck, we are also available remotely

The conditions

You follow this track through a minor in your studies, see below. We also ask that you are motivated to earn the OSCP and that you have basic knowledge of Linux and networking.

We ask for nothing in return, no repayment of the course, and you do not have to come and work for us afterwards. The only thing we expect is that you take it seriously.

Which minors facilitate this?

The following universities of applied sciences have minors in which you can follow this track:

• Hogeschool Leiden has a dedicated OSCP minor
• Fontys Hogeschool has included the OSCP in the “CyberStars” minor
• Hogeschool Utrecht facilitates this through the “Project van je Leven” minor

At a different university of applied sciences? Get in touch, perhaps we can work out a suitable arrangement together with your programme.
