theClubhou.se is excited to announce that they have partnered with Palmetto Cyber to open an EC-Council approved testing center and are offering certification classes in Certified Ethical Hacking (CEH).

Palmetto Cyber, a woman-owned, disabled veteran small business, is now a partner with EC-Council.  Palmetto Cyber is an EC-Council Accredited Training Center (ATC) and EC-Council Testing Center (ETC) at theClubhou.se

Christine Gilson, Palmetto Cyber CEO, said, "We are excited to provide EC-Council Training and Testing at theClubhou.se for all of their industry recognized certifications.  Using our Certified EC-Council Instructors (CEI) and Proctors, we can train and test the next Cyber Security Service Professionals for both Public and Private sectors.”

The CEH is a hiring standard and a sought-after certification by many Fortune 500 organizations, governments, cybersecurity practices, and a cyber staple in education across many of the most prominent degree programs in top Universities around the globe.  The Clubhouse is dedicated to growing a culture of innovation and collaboration. 

Eric Parker, Co-Founder of The Clubhouse, said, “This partnership will help us create more opportunities for people in Augusta to start and grow careers in cybersecurity, and help companies meet certification requirements necessary to perform their contracts. We are teaching people how to think with a “hacker mindset” to better defend against attacks in organizations.”

Gilson also shared, “This also allows us to help Department of Defense Cyber Professionals meet DoDD 8140 (DoDD 8570).  This is the first of our many planned partnerships with companies that have industry standard certifications.  This will launch us into more instructor-led training, virtual training and then our Cyber Services and Products, including DevSecOps and Pen Testing."
