      hello. I need to really learn PfSense correctly and be able to demonstrate proficiency. I cannot afford the official Netgate Class ($900) let alone the cost of lodging, travel and meals.

      Can someone recommend a web based alternative that would be self paced or instructor lead where the labs and studying could be done between sessions?

      My only learning has been via YouTube, chat rooms, and this forum. These have been very valuable, but I believe I am missing a lot of knowledge that must be learned in some form or sequential order, building blocks to apply and understand withing the framework of managing a firewall adequately.

      So if anyone can provide some thoughts I'd really appreciate it.
