Cybersecurity Bootcamp

Evolve Security Academy has provided the platform for eager minds to pursue a career in information security by cultivating the knowledge-base and enhancing the technical skills needed to succeed in this robust industry.  Dousing the students in many security domains such network, application, and physical security allows oneself to have a heighten curiosity in an environment that is meant to challenge students for higher growth potential. I highly recommend Evolve Security Academy for not only the experience and knowledge, but for being apart of a movement that changes what employers see as opportunity and potential.

After completing this bootcamp, I received several job offers both because of Evolve's reach-out as well as my own job search. I'm happy to have achieved my "dream job" because of Evolve, but I'm just as happy about the group of friends and colleagues that I've gained in my cohort as well as among Evolve's highly engaged staff.

Evolve Security Academy will make sure that you feel supported. The most valuable part of Evolve Security Academy is the strategic, hands-on approach from instructors who work in the field, not just professors. With my certification from Evolve Security Academy and CompTia Security +, I have the confidence I need to explore a new career field.

Database Analyst, The Joffrey Ballet
Cybersecurity Bootcamp

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.

Cybersecurity Bootcamp

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.
