I am I graduate of CYDEO, and I can only say, Cydeo provides highly qualified mentors and instructors! Give their students FULL support even after graduation! CYDEO treats their students like a family ! Classes are live! Java, Selenium, API (my favorite), SQL, Mobile testing instructors are geniuses! I can confidently say that, what Cydeo covers in one year, is worth of 4 years of knowledge. It’s hard, lots of sacrifices, lots of unslept nights. I highly recommend CYDEO, but only for those who are ready to sacrifice one year of social life

I sent hundreds of e-mails regarding some situations, but they did not call back even once. In fact, if you try to fight for your rights, they remove you from the platforms from which you owe all your money. There are better and more relevant courses, I recommend them.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job supportN/AInstructors1.0 -

Their curriculum is designed the way that will teach only what you need to kick off your new job as an SDET. Nothing extra straight to the point. I was an online student during COVID-19 lockdown and I never felt left behind or never felt lack of support from Cybertek Team members. They all working 24/7 and very prompt with help and assistance. Instructors are the best in what they are doing and they share the knowledge from real work experience and what's needed to succeed at the job.
I was interested in starting new career but didn't know how to start or where but after finishing the course I got offers from several companies and couldn't be more happier. It only takes 7 months and your full dedication to your new journey. Cybertek was the place for me and continues to change lives of many others. I can proudly say that I am Cybertek School Alumni.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

At the end of the course they will teach you how to lie to the employer to get the job. This school also in black list and creating fake pages for job references. Teachers not professional and out of 500 people on the course only 1% getting those intensive classes. Nobody will look after you, they just don't care, they just need money out of your pocket.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job support1.0Instructors1.0 -
