A core project involves designing and deploying a complete train-the-trainer workshop that includes role-specific workbooks, knowledge retention quizzes, and a live cyber range integration, simulating real-world corporate training rollout scenarios.

This course prepares candidates for the Certified Training PractitionerTM (CTP) certification, a credential recognized across IT services, banking, and government sectors for validating expert-level training delivery skills.
