Black Hat now issues all Training Certificates of Completion in digital format. Digital credentials — a traditional looking certificate, and more modern badge — provide a more sustainable, verifiable and secure pathway for Black Hat Training attendees to share their achievements.

Certificates and badges are sent to the email address associated with the attendee registration. Certificates will not be issued to attendees not physically present at their registered Training course.

For any questions or issues with your certificate, please contact: certificates@blackhat.com


Training Class Cancellations by Black Hat

In the event that a Training is canceled due to low enrollment, Trainer cancellation, or other reasons beyond our control, we will contact you immediately to make an alternate selection.

If Black Hat is forced to cancel a Training class, you have the following options:


Training Class Change Request

You are registered only for the Training class you selected. In order to change classes, you must complete the Black Hat Registration Update Form no later than July 17, 2020, space pending. After this date, we cannot change your Training class unless the class has been canceled.

If you are owed a refund for the difference of the class cost, you will be sent a refund via the same method of payment.

If additional payment is required, you will be billed the difference in the class cost. All outstanding fees must be paid in full by July 17, 2020.

Please email your request to: blackhatregistration@informa.com. Class space for the Training is extremely limited and we have sold out in years past. There is no guarantee that space will be available in the class you are requesting.


Training Class Reservations

All Training course seats are first-come, first-paid. The only way to hold a seat in a Training course is to be paid in full at the time of your registration. Black Hat reserves the right to cancel your unpaid registration without notification in order to guarantee the seat to a paid delegate.
