2024 – present
Netskope
The SSE teaching pillar: taught from inside the category's defining vendor.
The Netskope chapter is the accreditation sprint of this record: administrator to integrator to architect in under two years, the instructor authorization in between, and the SSE category itself as the subject matter.
The accreditation sprint
It began with the Administrator accreditation in late 2024, followed by Integrator in 2025 and Architect in 2026, with the sales-side NCSSA and NCSSE alongside, a deliberate run through every angle of the platform: operating it, deploying it, designing for it, and positioning it. The hands-on implementation and operation labs were part of the same push.
Teaching the security service edge
Netskope Certified Cloud Security Instructor since 2025, with the Trainer Accreditation Administrator License current through 2027, delivering the official operation and administration and implementation and integration courses. Teaching SSE from inside one of the vendors that defined the category closes a neat loop with this site's own glossary and tooling around SASE and SSE.
