Hi Petr
You already have the basic knowledge of pen-testing, therefore I
would recommed you need to be very selective on the course you
attend, as the majority are script kiddie based, point and click
stuff.
From our experience at BT, you need a combination of advanced
hands-on skill and conceptual security knowledge. Again from our
experience we have worked closely with the Security Associates
Institute and their Certifed Security Associate program, and have 13
certified CSA experts at BT. Check out the link:
http://www.securityassociate.org/csa.pdf
But this is only half the picture, you really need to combine this
with a conceptual course such as the CISSP.
