Training Requirements
You will need a computer with a camera and microphone and access to the internet. The computer will need to be able to support Teams and the training platforms(either Infosec or Immersive Labs).
CyberQuest is a self-paced, self-directed online training programme but generally participants will need to put in between 10 to 12 hours online a week to complete the suggested training courses. This varies somewhat between Paths,with the Intermediate the most time intensive.
