Genuine or phishing attempt?

[RobEllis]

I received this email earlier today from donotreply@isc2.brightspace.com. Is this a genuine isc2 communication?

Hello everyone,

Apologies for any confusion here. The course is real and free and you should have received an email explaining that. Our learning management system jumped the gun a bit and sent the email before we could send OUR email. It’s a real email and a real free course – and worth 5 CPEs – again sorry for any confusion!

Thank you for letting us know about this. We hope you enjoy the course if you choose to take it.

Best,

[FGA_Sol]

Thanks for the update.

There was also a tweet from @isc2 some hours ago clarifying this...
