Founded by former National Security Agency (NSA) analysts, Level Effect is a cybersecurity education and training provider offering a 14-week, live Cyber Defense Analyst (CDA) Bootcamp. Students engage in hands-on, immersive learning that helps them master the skills needed to defend and protect an organization’s network. Students begin the course with a rudimentary understanding of cybersecurity and finish with the skills and knowledge they need to start a career in cybersecurity. Classes are live and take place Monday through Thursday from 7-9pm CT with an optional Friday session from 5-6:30pm CT. Students can expect to spend between 15 to 20 hours per week (including live sessions) completing the required work.
The CDA Bootcamp uses training techniques similar to those used in the military to equip students with a vast amount of knowledge in a short period of time. The content is structured so that every module builds off of the techniques and tools learned from previous ones. As students progress through the bootcamp, they’ll learn new tools and techniques while strengthening their knowledge of those they’ve already learned. Throughout the bootcamp, students learn Windows, Linux, networking, forensics, malware analysis, threat hunting, threat intelligence, hacking, network defense, incident response, security operations, and PowerShell.
At the end of the bootcamp, students have the opportunity to showcase their skills by earning a Cyber Defense Certified Professional (CDCP) certification. This capstone assignment engages students in a number of real-world security operations scenarios that they must overcome while articulating solutions in a detailed report. Students who earn this certification have demonstrated that they have the knowledge and skills to work within a security operations team and is a great staple for any cybersecurity resume.

I was apart of the original Level Effect Cohort in 2020. I had never worked in IT prior, and I came in as a 2x college dog water college drop out that could not figure out or understand how Cyber Security worked. After completing this exam. I was able to immediately build off what I had learned and study for and pass my Security + Certificate. I now currently work for Motorola as a Security Operations Technician, and I 100% thank this class for beginning my journey to get to where I am now...

I now currently work for Motorola as a Security Operations Technician, and I 100% thank this class for beginning my journey to get to where I am now. I can not say getting a job was easy. I have been through dozens of job interviews, and I got turned down everytime. But with perseverence and learning from my mistakes from previous interviews, I inevitably was able to start a career. With a little bit of perseverence and hard work, you can most certainly walk down the same path I did to start a Career in Cyber Security. A college degree is not required, and most people nowadays in the field would agree with that.
