FAQ

Do I need prior IT or cybersecurity experience to enroll?

No prior professional cybersecurity experience is required. Incoming students should be comfortable with basic computer networking and the Linux command line. We provide a free pre-bootcamp Cybersecurity Fundamentals primer to get every student exam-ready.

What does the partnership with EC-Council University mean for me?

Coursework is built directly against EC-Council University's official CND, E|CIH and CEH curriculum, and your tuition includes all three exam vouchers. You will graduate eligible to sit three of the most-requested cybersecurity certifications in the world, with prep guidance from EC-Council University-aligned instructors.

How do the certification vouchers and retake attempts work?

Tuition includes one voucher each for CND, E|CIH and CEH. Each voucher is valid for one year from the date of issue. You receive two exam attempts per certification — so if you don't pass on your first attempt, your second attempt is already covered.

What is the class schedule?

Classes meet live-online Monday through Thursday from 7–9 PM CST, with every other Saturday from 10 AM – 3 PM CST. Plan on roughly 20 hours per week total, including individual lab work. The schedule is built so you can keep a full-time job.
