While the courses are self-paced and self-directed that do not have any official support, we do invite you to join our Offsec Community Chat Platform where you can connect, collaborate, and chat with your fellow learners, the Offsec staff, and infosec professionals as you go through the course. For more information, please visit: OffSec Community Chat User Guide
In addition, we also have our OffSec forums, where you might find help if needed: OffSec Forums
If you have not received your Forum Credentials or forgot your credentials, you can reach out to our Help Department at: help@offensive-security.com for assistance.
Make sure to include your OSID when reaching out so they can better assist you.
If you experience any technical problems connecting to, or working with the labs, please contact our Administrators via Discord in the #otl-support channel or email our Help Department at: help@offensive-security.com. (Note: This email is for technical support and not for assistance with course exercises.)
