This listing uses one pricing dimension: a seat license for LDR516: Strategic Vulnerability & Threat Management. You buy access per person, so cost scales with the number of students you enroll. Each seat covers one learner taking the course. To train several people, you add more seats. There are no separate tiers or instance sizes to choose from. Pricing follows a contract model, so you commit to the seat quantity you need for your team.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What does one seat license cover, and how is a student counted?
One seat licenses a single learner to take LDR516: Strategic Vulnerability & Threat Management. Each person you enroll uses one seat. To train several people, you buy one seat per learner. The course runs five days instructor-led, with self-paced hours and hands-on labs.
Can I choose different training formats with a seat, such as online or in-person?
The course is offered in several formats, including live in-person, live online, and self-paced self-study. A seat covers one learner taking the course. The seat price itself does not change by format on this listing. Contact the vendor to confirm which format applies to your seat.
How does my cost change if I need to train more people later?
Cost scales with the number of seats. Each added learner needs one more seat. There are no tiers or instance sizes, so adding people means adding seats at the same per-seat structure. You commit to the seat quantity your team needs under the contract model.
