Why Should I Attend?

Gain Hands-On, Real-World Skills Immediately.

Each day combines lectures, practical exercises, and live evening scenarios. You’ll practice techniques like communication profiling, elicitation, influence, and nonverbal analysis—then debrief and refine those skills each morning. This immediate feedback loop helps you retain knowledge and develop effective methods you can apply at work (and in life) right away.

Are You a Red-Team Operator or Cybersecurity Professional?

Strengthen your offensive and defensive tactics by understanding how people think and react under pressure. You’ll learn how to spot, counter, and ethically use social engineering methods to protect organizations from human-focused threats. 

Are You a Manager, Leader, or in Sales?

Develop ethical influence skills to motivate teams, build authentic rapport, and negotiate more effectively. Mastering the psychology of decision-making not only enhances your leadership style, but also ensures you can recognize, and thwart personal or organizational attacks targeting the human vector.

Leave with a practical toolkit—and a Path to CESE Certification.

You’ll walk away with a fresh mindset on human behavior and an option to pursue the world’s only Certified Ethical Social Engineer (CESE) certification, an internationally recognized credential.

Learn from Chris Hadnagy.
