Today, Netgate is pleased to announce the immediate availability of our flagship training offering, pfSense Plus Fundamentals and Practical Application in a free, self-paced, online format.
The pfSense Plus Fundamentals and Practical Application course is designed to help our customers manage and maintain their network firewall, VPN and router using pfSense Plus as one of the core elements. This self-paced training will allow our customers to take part in real-world scenarios using virtual interactive lab environments while covering some of the most commonly used features of the product. In addition, participants will be rigorously tested on basic networking concepts that are critical to the success of their pfSense Plus deployment.
Access to the training course is free. We encourage everyone interested in learning more about pfSense Plus or about firewalls and routing in general, to work through the curriculum at their own pace. At the end of the course, an optional multiple-choice test with labs is available for those seeking certification for a small fee.

The ability to provide the same high level of training and a positive learning experience for our growing customer base in a self-paced format and at an affordable price point is exciting.
