In 2021, we launched the OffSec Learning Library (OLL) and we've been working on migrating all of our Alumni student over to the new portal.
Any students who registered and started their courses before we launched the OTL, were studying in what we now refer to as the Legacy system.
If you're an alumni student and no longer have access to your original personalized purchase link to the Legacy system or are unsure whether your account has been migrated or not, please Submit a request and our team will be happy to assist.
In order to try and clear up some confusion, as parts of the Legacy system is still operational, we'll try to explain the difference between our two systems.
Legacy System:
While we're transistioning to the OffSec Learning Library, we still allow students to register via the Legacy system in order to purchase our Course & Cert Exam Bundle or Learn subscriptions.
However, all new registrations will automatically be migrated over to the OLL after successful payment and ID verification.
Alumni students who haven't been migrated yet and make a new purchase using their purchase link (with the exception of certification attempts) will also automatically be migrated to the OLL upon successful payment.
Once a file has been migrated, an email containing instructions on how to setup the OLL account will be sent via email.
Student Access:
Alumni students that are still studying in the Legacy system were provided with VPN credentials, downloadable course materials, exam scheduling link and access to their student control panel via email.
They do not have online access to the labs or their course materials.
All exam challenges (with the exceptions of Assessments) are also currently being hosted in the Legacy system. Since all exams are in the same environment, all of our students will have to go through the same process when attemting the exam, regardless of which environment they are studying in.
OffSec Learning Library:
New students can register directly to our OffSec Learning Library in order to get online access to our products.
The OLL provides new ways for our users to discover and consume our content. Students will have online access to their purchased products (including control panel, course materials, labs, exercises, etc.).
You can find a quick walkthrough for the main functionalities of the OLL control panel on our Course start guide page.
