    The Cybersecurity Boot Camp was totally worth it!

    I joined this program because I wanted to further expand my tech knowledge into cybersecurity and I didn't know how or where to begin. This program doesn't require having any cyber knowledge and it guided me from the very start. I can confidently say that I learned how to use various (ethical) hacking tools and even created my own hacking project for my final. 10/10 would recommend this boot camp to anyone that is looking where to start in cybersecurity. My instructor, Teaching Assistant...

    challenging rewarding adventurous

    I surprised myself to even enroll in school. I knew I was capable of so much more than just working a job, I wanted a career, but I didn't think I was good enough for school but look at me now, I did it. The journey wasn't easy, working fulltime and overtime but I pushed through and made it to the finish line.

    Best decision I made

    I was looking and thinking of a new career, I wanted to follow my passion of creating and learning something new!

    Breaking into my dream field.

    I would like to start by saying, this course has been exactly what I didn't know I needed. I had left my previous employer and was looking to break into a field I had a passion for. When I went my own way, I was mindlessly scrolling through job boards for tech jobs. It seemed I'd never find something that I qualified for or was in a field I wanted to be in. I happened to come across the U of M Cyber Security Course, and I thought what the heck. Ever since, I have been building my reperto...

    University of Minnesota UX/UI Boot Camp

    I chose to move into UX Design after completing a freelance design job. I realized that while working on this project that I felt fulfilled and eager to keep working even after it was completed. I have never felt like that at a job before. 

    I really enjoyed my boot camp experience, while it was difficult and frustrating times, it was exciting to see my knowledge and skill grow in real time. My favorite part of the boot camp was probably working in studio classes where we were spli...

    Coding Bootcamp

    I am an IT professional with about 2 decade of experience. Most of my experience was in legacy technology and past 5 years I've been playing the role of Business Analyst. I was working for Delta Airlines in Minnesota campus. When COVID hit and impacted Airline business, the great company it is, with great leaders, we were offered voluntary packages to separate from the company with health insurance for a year. I took that opportunity to introspect my career path and retool myself. As I l...

    UX/UI Design Bootcamp

    I would highly recommend this bootcamp to anyone wanting to learn and put in the time. I made lasting relationships with classmates that I will now carry through my career, as well as so many skills I never thought I could learn in a 6 month time period. It really gives you the tools to do so many things with your career or business.

    Just like BEING REBORN

    Syria, 1997. My very first experience facing a PC. It was running on Windows 95, very slow, very noisy, and extremely magical. That was the moment when I said to my father "I will become a programmer". Then, life took me on a different path (financial pressure/survival mode) and I ended up working in the media field for +8 years. But that moment of love, at first sight, stayed with me and I had to remind myself that “IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO BECOME A CODER”.
