Another way to learn Pentest is from http://de-ice.net
You will be introduced to another framework, ISSAF, instead of OSSTMM. This
is new online training and need more review from its participants. It is
more appropriate for new comer in Pentest field instead of OSSTMM. Try this
first before OCSP and/or OPST.

Cheers,
Ardian

If you really wanna start understanding how to PenTest you should
forget CEH its for script kiddies, you MUST try - From BackTrack
Creators!!! Offensive-Security Courses.

CEH teach you how to use tools but Offensive Security 101 course teach
you how to think like a hacker developing your own scripts or
exploits, and isc2 gives 40 CPE's for that course. Is excellent, and
the certification is called OCSP - Offensive Security Certified
Professional (you can get it after passing a 24 hour real hacking
test).

Check it out:

Cheers!!!!!
