Silicon Valley ISSA CISSP G.R.I.T. Program
CISSP Certification Prep - G.R.I.T. Program
Silicon Valley ISSA Education Fall 2026 Cohort
Serious preparation for serious security professionals.
Prepare for the CISSP with a program designed for serious security professionals. Over 12 weeks and 21 live, instructor-led sessions, you'll gain deep proficiency across all eight domains — the frameworks and strategic understanding that translate directly into leadership, architecture, and governance work.
This is not a boot camp or a cram course.
This is structured, strategic preparation built by practitioners for practitioners.
Best of all, the course is no-cost for Silicon Valley ISSA members — if you're an ISSA member in good standing from any chapter, just join the SV chapter ($30) to enroll. Seats are limited.
