Evolve Security Academy

The curriculum was planned out well. I was able to gain more knowledge just by completing the labs. My instructors were scholarly and have a passion to teach and learn. This was a great course that provided me with the knowledge and experience I need... Read More to advance in the cybersecurity field.

After intensive research on what virtual school i wanted to attend, my final decision was evolve academy and i must say it was the right choice, i learned everything i wanted and more. The labs are great and so are the instructors, all the material is... Read More straight foward so you can learn and even teach your self but the instructors make it so much better because they are there when you need them.

A great education. A respectful community. The experience had professor-led lectures - both live and video - combined with cohort hands-on lab work. This combination provided a full opportunity to learn cybersecurity from all angles. I liked the fact... Read More that the course was based on learning objectives, engagement, and discourse. I felt confident that I had learned the right things at the right time. This course takes the dedication of time and effort. This isn't an easy "rubber stamp" academy. The only feedback I have is for students to put in extra effort during the course in order to pass the final. The final requires an absolute understanding of the material.

I really could not have picked a better boot camp! I learned way more about cybersecurity than I imagined I could. First of all the scheduling was great. I'm sure it helped all of us with not getting burned even with all of the information we learned... Read More throughout the entire 20 weeks. The instructors as well as the assistant instructors were so knowledgeable, patient and helpful. Everyone was willing and eager to answer all of our questions that we could have had. I really loved the amount of hands on learning we did as it helped me retain a vast majority of the material that was given throughout the course. The only thing I wish that we covered more of was how to properly do write ups for security assessments, but I'm sure that can be added in for the upcoming cohorts. Our career coach was also extremely encouraging and made sure that we knew how much value we hold as cybersecurity experts and that we can SURELY pave a way for ourselves in this industry. That helped me boost my confidence a lot while making my way through the boot camp. All in all I am so glad that I made the decision to attend Evolve Security academy and I 10/10 recommend anyone else considering this school to go for it.

I decided it was time for a career change, but didn't know the first thing about cyber security. The Evolve Security Academy bootcamp was no joke. You're immediately thrown into the Linux terminal, and it only gets harder from there. However, the instructors... Read More are amazing, and never failed to help me through something I didn't understand. As the weeks went by, my confidence and passion for cyber security grew. Make no mistake, you have to WANT it. I studied on my own outside of class for probably 20 hours a week. The tests and labs were challenging, but you have not only the instructors to help you, but also your classmates. Being in a smaller "breakout" group allowed us to tackle certain tasks as a team. We learned a lot together, and even remained friends after class was over. When you first start it seems impossible, but by the time class is over, you feel like it went so fast. If you are the type of person that is serious about learning, this class is for you. Be prepared to study hard, have no social life, and be sad when it's done. 10/10 would do again.

Evolve taught me the technical skills in addition to the unique critical thinking skills that are necessary for cybersecurity. As someone who has 20 years of experience in an unrelated field, I am merging the professional skills that I already possessed... Read More with the technical skills that I learned to fulfill a dream of changing careers and helping companies secure their infrastructure.

I genuinely loved my experience with Evolve Security Academy. It led me to a complete career shift, introduced me to a network of alumni (now industry professionals), gave me a solid foundation in networking.security concepts, and so much more. I can,... Read More wholeheartedly, say this bootcamp changed my life and the lives of many in my cohort. I'd recommend Evolve Security Academy to anyone looking to break into cybersecurity!

My time in the trenches while attending the Evolve Security Academy was very intense, immersive and collaborative.

This boot camp is fast-paced but worth every minute! From someone who had very little IT knowledge and zero cyber knowledge, I feel more than confident to start my journey in this industry. The support from the staff and encouragement from classmates... Read More is in itself, the best part of learning with Evolve. I would recommend this boot camp and Evolve to anyone interested in cyber!

The Evolve Security Academy OSCP Bootcamp was a very skill-oriented program that helped me learn the ins and outs of what it means to be a pen tester. The best part of the program was getting to participate with seasoned instructors on hacking networks... Read More and machines. Nothing was setup ahead of time for them to succeed. They approached the boxes cold just like I did, so I got to watch how their minds worked, the rationale they had for using certain tools above others in different situations, and what they did when they struggled - as everyone does. It was an excellent experience. I learned a lot and am sure my company is more secure now.
