Before anyone says anything, I have to have this training for work.. And I am pretty excited about it as well 
Here is the Course Description:
Because security is an ever-changing battlefield, Ultimate Hacking exposes you to the latest in network vulnerabilities and defenses. From Windows and UNIX hosts to routers and firewalls, instructors will illustrate each technology's default security posture, installation weaknesses, methods hackers use to circumvent "secure" settings, and countermeasures for each vulnerability.
More than just theory, you will gain critical security skills by practicing with your classmates and instructors in a full-featured computer lab.
Foundstone instructors will walk you through foot-printing an organization's Internet presence to show you how to identify, exploit, and secure popular and little-known vulnerabilities in Windows and Unix systems.
You will also explore common weaknesses in router and firewall installations, learning ways to circumvent both traditional and "hardened" security filters or firewalls. Finally, in a review exercise, you will attempt to exploit a simulated "secure" network with multiple operating systems and security mechanisms requiring you to utilize all of the skills learned throughout the class. This ?capture the flag? exercise ensures that you can immediately use these skills when you return to organization.
Here is my Course Syllabus:
Day one sets the foundation in which penetration tests are performed. Emphasis is placed on the importance of performing the work in a methodical and thorough manner.
Reviewing publicly available information
Network and domain enumeration
"whois" lookups
ARIN lookups
DNS Interrogation
Zone transfers
Network reconnaissance
Scanning / Landscape Discovery
Ping sweeps
Port scanning
Banner grabbing
OS guessing
Footprinting Lab
Use the tools and techniques taught on day one to footprint and scan Foundstone's Footprinting Network in Irvine, California. The Footprinting Network consists of a wide variety of machines on the Internet (Windows, Red Hat, Solaris, HP-UP, AIX, etc.). These machines are specifically made available to the class for the purpose of running live scans. The appropriate entries in ARIN and Network Solutions have also been made so that students can perform actual lookups against those databases. This lab gives students the opportunity to run the tools in a realistic manner against live machines on the Internet.
Day 2 - Windows
The material taught on day two focuses on Windows, and begins with a basic overview of Windows security, followed by Foundstone's methodology for hacking and securing these systems. During the lecture portion of the day, there will also be test machines for student experimentation.
