Cybersecurity Bootcamp

Evolve Security Academy has hands down changed my life! The remote course was delivered in such a way that it felt like we were actually in a live classroom and worked perfectly around a full time work schedule. I landed a job in cybersecurity by networking within the cohort. Attending Evolve’s cyber security bootcamp has been the best investment I have ever made and it changed my life in a matter of months!

This program has taught me far more about the information security industry and my place within it than my numerous years studying cybersecurity at University. Under the guidance and tutelage of experienced mentors who have spent many years honing themselves in their respective niches within the industry, we as a cohort developed strong bonds, practical experience and confidence in our craft which personally served me well in succeeding in my job search in the latter half of the bootcamp. Without Evolve Security Academy and my colleagues who supported me from day one of the bootcamp, I would have never imagined myself being able to converse with industry professionals on the scale and level that I do now.

I can honestly say that this bootcamp has changed my life. I am a much more motivated person and this experience showed me that I can push myself in ways I didn't know that I could before.

The instructors and content for this bootcamp are excellent. It provides you with hands on cybersecurity experience that would be hard to get on your own or with any other bootcamp. The curriculum flows nicely and starts you out with basic security concepts but over the course of the bootcamp you get into high level security concepts/methods. The instructors did an amazing job at making sure that everyone understood the material and the labs before moving onto the next portion. This bootcamp offers both blue team and red team content which separates it from other bootcamps for cybersecurity.

Attending Evolve Security Academy bootcamp is one of the best decisions I've made in my career. I had a technical background but wanted to really focus on cybersecurity. The program was not a piece of cake but with enough determination, patience and with the help of the knowledgeable instructors, I can proudly say that I've done it. The modules were well thought of and classes were presented in a professional manner every session. I especially like the breakroom activities that gives us opportunity to work together in small teams to analyze and solve different tasks. Career coaching is also another strength of this program. Not only are students trained technically but they also guided us on how to present ourselves in the market and prepare for job hunting. Overall, Evolve Security Academy has really done a great job exposing students with knowledge of the real world scenarios and possible solution relating to cybersecurity.

Evolve gave me the tools I needed to find out what I wanted to do in the field of Security. What stands out to companies is the commitment you put to complete this 17 week course. In the end, joining Evolve paid off and I was able to get into the field as a Security Administrator.
