Do I need prior IT or cybersecurity experience?

No. Many of our programs are beginner-friendly and start from foundational concepts.

If you already have experience or certifications, some programs may help you refine, validate, or advance your skills. If you’re unsure where you fit, we recommend starting with Start Here.

Are these programs self-paced or instructor-led?

It depends on the program.

We offer a mix of:
