Great course, presented in a way that suits all styles of learning, verbal, visual and practical all the way through (around 30+ hours of content). The assignments are realistic and invaluable for building skills and confidence, especially when you are required to create reports on your findings and submit them for review, something you would be expected to do in the workplace. Report writing tutorials and example reports are also covered in the course, this is something I found lacking in other OSINT courses, so I pleased this was included. Help and assistance was always available and prompt. Overall, the course is very professional and teaches the essentials required to be an effective OSINT practitioner, I really got that feeling of “on the job training”. My only disappointment is not finding this course sooner after spending time and money on other courses. Highly recommended… 10/10
