    Good Learning Experience

    When I look back at my time in the Cybersecurity Bootcamp, I can say without a doubt it was a good learning experience.  There is a lot of information coming at you quickly, although, for those who put their heads down, dig in, and digest the information it's definitely worth the work.  My only criticism would be the job assistance on the back end.  I feel like there are missing pieces, especially for those who don't come from a tech background.  Personally, I would share with those just...

    An experience at the least

    I have mixed feelings about this program. When I started this program I was nervous about the material but I was still invested in learning, so I gave it a try. Along the way the professors and the counselors tried to help regarding the material.There are also tutors that can help you with specific work you are given and they will do their best to help you. 

    Although I did receive the certificate and graduated I'm still not in the cybersecurity/ technology/ IT field aft...

    Decent IT Practice

     I really liked a lot of the instructors. They were engaging, made the information interesting, were helpful, and the best part of the course. They seemed like good people who had good experience. 
    I honestly didn't have the best time looking for jobs afterward though. With the pricing I wish I got a bit more than I did. It's two years later and I don't yet have a job. Online job hunting can be rough.
    Going to college now instead, which I wish I just spent this money on that to get...

    Great Introduction to IT

    The boot camp prepared me for my career transition into IT. Since I was new to IT, it helped give me a wide breadth of knowledge so I could land a job in IT. I think the boot camp was a good value for the price to get all the personal time with instructors that you receive. The sheer amount of hands on experience helps you gain much more knowledge than if it was purely classroom based. I would recommend this boot camp to anyone interested in changing gears to IT.

    Overall positive

    In this course, a student will become familiar with many topics and skills. This course will not get a student certified, and you may not be a viable applicant in the field after graduation. A graduate will have significant work after the course before being a viable applicant.

    UofM Nexus Cyber Bootcamp

    Great course and instructors! The workload was challenging, but manageable. The Instructors were very good! The content of the course is relevant to the job market. In each module, the labs are cumulative and paced comfortably. I would recommend this course.

    Challenging content but needs refinement

    2021 graduate of this bootcamp and part of the 7th graduating class overall. I had recently retired from a career in science and administration and was attracted to the fast growing field of Cybersecurity not only because of the availability of employment opportunities, but foremost for the chance to help protect our country from data theft. I came into the bootcamp with an above average knowledge of technical writing, computer applications and computer hardware, but with only a basic kn...

    Alright but overpriced

    The perception going in to this program that I had was that I was that I would be able to easily get a 100k a year job by the end of the program. As the program went on, however I realized more and more that this could not be further from the truth. This program qualifies you for a minimum wage job at best. The certificate obtained from completing the program has no weight in the cyber world and I certainly don't feel qualified to work a decent job. Now this wouldn't be much of a problem...

    Great Experience and Knowledgeable Professors

    My experience at U of M Nexus was very good. I gained the necessary skills and experience to get into the IT and Cyber Security industry. The curriculum was straight forward and the professors would stay after class to provide additional help. The Professors were super knowledgeable and provided real world examples. The labs in each course provided realistic situations you would see in a real Cyber security analyst role.  I am currently an IT administrator and I would never have had this...

    Very Thorough

    Nexus is at the forefront of cybersecurity technologies, theories, and methodologies, and this is evident through the course materials, exercises, and projects. The course is very comprehensive, although it can be challenging due to the extensive content covered in a relatively short time frame. However, if you dedicate yourself and actively participate in class, you’ll discover a sense of camaraderie among your classmates and benefit from the mentorship provided by the professors.

    Nexus Cyber Security

    I've been an IT professional for about 20 years primarily in system administration and engineering of SAN/NAS environments.  I was looking to make a change in my fields and have wanted to go into security and system protections.  This course, while informative, seemed to be more geared towards those with little to no background in IT.  The instructors were knowledgeable but the material itself was rather basic.  I was hoping for something a little more advanced considering the time and e...
