I applied for a scholarship from EC Council on Cybersecurity. I later received an email from EC-Council on the scholarship program but here's the catch: This partial scholarship covers all fees with the exception of a $199 proctoring and technology fee. Has anyone done this program and can confirm its authenticity?

Any time you're required to pay a fee for a scholarship, even a partial one, it's a good idea to its authenticity carefully. Here are some steps you can take:

1. **Research Online**: Look for reviews or experiences from individuals who have received the scholarship. You can check forums like Reddit, cybersecurity community boards, or LinkedIn groups.

2. ** EC-Council Directly**: Reach out to EC-Council through their official methods to the scholarship details. This can help you confirm whether the email you received is genuine.

3. **Check for Official Announcements**: Visit the EC-Council’s official website or their official social media pages to see if there are any announcements regarding the scholarship program.

4. **Review the Email Carefully**: Ensure that the email address it was sent from is an official EC-Council domain. Scammers often use addresses that look similar to official ones.

5. ** Alumni**: If possible, try to connect with past recipients of the scholarship through LinkedIn or other professional networks to get firsthand .

While EC-Council does run legitimate programs, your due diligence can help avoid potential scams. If you need further assistance ing the program, feel free to provide more details or any specific concerns you have.

Another script …..


Here is a sample script for a one-minute motion graphic video about the Elements of a Healthy Command:

**Video:**

> **Narrator:** A healthy command is one where everyone feels safe, respected, and valued. It is a place where people can thrive and perform their best. There are a number of factors that contribute to a healthy command, including work-life balance and safe storage for lethal means.

**Visual:** A montage of images showing soldiers working hard, spending time with family and friends, and safely storing their firearms.

> **Narrator:** Work-life balance is important for everyone, but it is especially important for soldiers. Soldiers have demanding jobs, but they also need time to relax and recharge. When soldiers have a good work-life balance, they are more likely to be happy and healthy.

**Visual:** An image of a soldier working on a laptop at home, surrounded by his family.

> **Narrator:** Safe storage for lethal means is another important factor in a healthy command. Firearms and other lethal means should be safely stored so that they cannot be accessed by someone who might harm themselves or others.

**Visual:** An image of a soldier safely storing his firearm in a locked safe.

> **Narrator:** A healthy command is one where everyone is committed to creating a safe and ive environment. By promoting work-life balance and safe storage for lethal means, we can create commands where everyone can thrive.

**Visual:** A group of soldiers working together and ing each other.

> **Narrator:** For more information on how to create a healthy command, visit [website address].

**On-screen text:** [Website address]

**Narrator:** A healthy command starts with you.

Sample script ……


Sample.…. **Script for a one-minute motion graphics video on the Elements of a Healthy Command (that reduce the likelihood of SAPR-related issues)**

**Narrator:** A healthy command is essential for preventing sexual assault, sexual harassment, and other forms of misconduct. When commanders and leaders create a culture of respect, inclusion, and , service are more likely to report sexual assault and other misconduct, and less likely to experience it in the first place.

More than 3 years later, this problem still persists. MTN Hyflexnet was down some hours in my area, so i activated...


Once you ok auto renewals, Airtel Nigeria deliberately makes it EXTREMELY difficult for you to opt out of it. Why not just add the opt out code in the same auto renew message (like every other data service provider does)?

Please push to FP for anybody else that this may help.
