<p>Hello there,</p>
<p> I know you can find some cybersecurity courses in
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.coursera.org">www.coursera.org</a> [1]. <br>
</p>
<p> So far I have taken three of them (all of them from the
University of Maryland). They are more or less free :-).., I mean,
you can take the full course but in case you want to take the
exams and earn the certificate you have to pay, anyway, I believe
the price is reasonable, around usd 50 each. Each course last 6-7
weeks.<br>
</p>
I´m happy with the trainig, I have learned a lot, I´m happy the
course has some sort of hands-on that I personally like (and I´m not
alone).<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Alejandro,<br>
