Cybersecurity Bootcamp

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.

Evolve Security Academy was a fantastic way to start my cybersecurity career.  Before this class, I had never worked with virtualization or Linux, and I did both in my first week!  I enjoyed learning the wide range of foundational topics and applying everything we learned in a real assessment with a local charter school.  The instructors love teaching and cybersecurity, and they were truly invested in my success.  The bootcamp can be tough, as it should be, but it was very rewarding.  Finally, I loved the fun and close relationships I developed with my fellow cohort classmates.  No better way to start than with enthusiastic and motivated friends.

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.

Evolve Security Academy did a great job of preparing me for the basics of the cybersecurity industry. My lead instructor was an exceptional instructor. The depth and variety of the labs were challenging and fast-paced. We covered a lot of ground in a very short period of time. The career coaching component of the Academy was enormously helpful, as was the collegiality of the other students. I was able to pass Security + one month after finishing the class. Around one month after that, I was offered an internship.

I couldn't have asked for a more diverse and intimate group setting albeit it was all online, I feel that I have made very close connections with my classmates through this intricate learning process.I feel that this bootcamp is for everyone even if they aren't looking for a job in cybersecurity as this world is changing and our presence online is becoming more and more prevalent. The materials and curriculum is well suited for those who really are looking forward to learning more and expanding their horizons on a new and exciting field.
