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.
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.
Evolve Security Academy has provided me the tools and mentorship needed to be successful in the cybersecurity space. Not only did they challenge me to think outside of the box, but to strive for excellence. Thanks to them, I now have the confidence and technical skills needed to tackle any challenge that comes my way.
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.
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.
The class gave you a sense of community within the cybersecurity industry, and it allows you to feel like you are involved in the security community regardless of if you're new to security or if you're coming from a different industry.
