That’s why we are excited to partner with Auldhouse – it gives professionals in New Zealand access to the largest provider of cybersecurity training offerings.”
“We are excited to be partnering with Auldhouse and working closely to train and increase cybersecurity competency and capacity in New Zealand,” says Judy Saw, Business Development Director of exclusive EC-Council distributor, Wissen International. “Having the largest selection of cybersecurity training in New Zealand makes Auldhouse a trusted partner for local organisations, says Jeff Felice, President of CertNexus, a vendor-neutral certification body providing emerging technology certifications for IT and security professionals.”
