Learn Ethical Hacking at These 106 Ethical Hacking Bootcamps

Cybertek has equiped me with skills that could have taken me a very long time to acquire, its fast paced but with persistence and had work someone who is interested can hack it.

The American University Cybersecurity Program is the perfect choice to anyone who wants to start the journey of cybersecurity. The program provides the fundamental knowledge to learn from the basics moving forward to more complex and sophisticate topics. The most important is that provides a closer look of the real work experience with several practices, make it easy to get the skills required to perform and excellent job. 

In my case with a background of Electronic Systems Engineering, it gave much more to keep going to a more specialized career, update my knowledge and learn new things that I only dreamed before.

I went into this bootcamp with no knowledge of cybersecurity and very little IT experience. This bootcamp prepared me well for what to expect in the field. I gained both book knowledge and hands-on experience with tools you will see in a cybersecurity job. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get started in cybersecurity. 

I joined this course in end of 2021. I learned network, operations systems and security related stuffs from zero. Then I found a job in the middle of 2022. The instructors were super interested and helpful. When I had any question about anything, I reached them easily. And even after graduation they helped my orientation. 

This bootcamp isn't about getting good grades and completing assignments. In the end, how much you learn depends on the amount of time and effort you put in. Coming from someone without any prior knowledge about software development, it is a beginner friendly program. I recommend you try the introductory course to see if it is something you want to invest your money in. You can learn most of what's in the curriculum online for free. The benefits of enrolling here are having many different instructors who are currently working in the tech industry, receiving feedback from them in real time, and building new connections. Personally, I had a good experience and I enjoyed learning in a classroom environment.

 

Para todos aquellos que estén pensando hacer un bootcamp, voy a contar mi experiencia personal. 

 

Yo era abogado en ejercicio, pero francamente no me gustaba la profesión. Siempre he sido una persona muy tecnológica, muy autodidacta y necesitaba dar este salto. 

 

Estuve haciendo un estudio de mercado sobre las diferentes escuelas, leyendo reviews en foros, viendo quienes serían los docentes, y al final decidí que ciberseguridad en Upgrade era la mejor opción para mi. Siempre me había interesado mucho esta disciplina y desde luego no ha sido una equivocación. 

 

La experiencia es intensa, a veces desbordante, pero si realmente te gusta es muy disfrutable. Se crea un ambiente de compañerismo y entablas relaciones personales que merece la pena vivir. 

 

En cuanto a encontrar un empleo, y hablando por mi, lo he encontrado en un periodo de tiempo muy razonable. Terminé a finales de noviembre y en enero ya había firmado, navidades mediante. 

 

Y si eres una chica, este es el mejor momento para vosotras en ciberseguridad. 

I took the 12w + 4w pre-studies bootcamp course of C# .NET Fullstack Dev education.
Best choice professionally i've made!

The setup was a hybrid solution so it was free choice to either attend online or attend in the physical classroom on Campus.
I did a bit of both and regret not spending more time on Campus. If you got the chance to sit there, do it!

Awesome teachers!
Awesome premises!

I am about rounding off the QuickStart Software Engineering bootcamp. It's been  a great learning experience for me. The scope could be a lot for a beginner, but there's adequate resources to help for anyone willing to put in the work. The instructors are super nice and patient in helping students learn

Great instructors who are willing to help you thrive and learn, friends with them on LinkedIn, they would answer my many questions without being bothered, truly want to see you thrive, my career  coach Cachet was amazing and supportive, Javier the career advisor helped me out greatly, was always available to text or call about it and put in a nice review and word in for me that I feel guaranteed me my 1st job (that I got 1 day before the program ended). It does not guarantee job placement, BUT they do provide the necessary skills and traits to be able to land a job and the fundamental knowledge to be able to succeed. 

I found the hands on lessons to be very challenging and useful. Much more than a regular bootcamp. It definitely took dedication to complete the 10-month program, but well worth it.  The instructors were very knowledgeable and engaging. Some of the lessons were basic for anyone in the industry for years, but the advanced topics were definitely harder and new to me.  Well worth it.  I did look forward to each new lesson.

The University of North Florida offers a cybersecurity bootcamp powered by Fullstack academy. After a lot of research, I decided this would be the core resource that I would use to change my career from project management to cybersecurity. I completed their part time cohort, which lasted 6 months (October 2021-April 2022). It provided a wonderful base knowledge that has set me up for some really great opportunities as a cybersecurity analyst. The pace and content of the course was challenging but rewarding. The instructional staff were all very knowledgeable and supportive, which made learning this new material much easier than a path of self paced study. A big bonus for me was that the program included amazing career services that assist with resume creation, job hunt strategies, and interview preparation. I would highly recommend this program for anyone that wants to make themselves competitive for an entry level cybersecurity position. 

I was in the Cyber Security bootcamp that took place earlier this year and I really enjoyed my time. The teacher Monica was wonderful to work with and very much so a team player. I read a lot of things saying bootcamps are impossible because of how much information is learned in a short period of time; but it was not overwhelming at all. I found myself learning at the same pace as everyone else and that has not always been the case for me. 10/10 would recommend.

They really want you to get a job in whichever industry you choose! Another benefit of the smaller size of this school is they do well if you do well.

Full Review:
There are a couple programs out there that might help cover tuition if you qualify and the school offers reasonable financing options. I had spoken to one of their recruiters before signing up and was able to work out options best suited to my financial situation with their senior leadership. They have some information about their financing options on their website, but if the cost of tuition is the only hurdle you see then be open with them and talk it out. They absolutely want to help people who honestly wish to help themselves. 

Skillspire is a small institution focused on getting people into the tech industry. Their size allows them to help you in the right capacity needed for your situation. They have more freedom to accommodate their students on a personal basis. 

Are you a nervous test taker or stress over due dates? NO WORRIES HERE! You won't take a single exam and due dates are very flexible. The course was designed to be no stress/low pressure for the students. The grading structure is very relaxed as well. Turn in your assignment and get the points. 

Concerned you won't be able to find the time to participate? 
I live on the East Coast and they're based in Seattle, WA. That's a 3 hour time difference. Wednesday classes were late for my time zone but if I couldn't make it to class the instructor sent a link to the recording of the class. They're understanding and lenient on attendance.

You will not pass/fail based on attendance or grades. You are responsible for learning the material just like any other learning institution but they will pull all the stops to make sure you can learn what they're teaching. You get out of this course exactly what you put in. When I went through the course we didn't have our first official homework assignment until just before half way through the 20 weeks. Personally I recommend using an additional resource to practice what you learn between classes. I was brand new to all the material and I felt I needed it and the extra practice helped. 

Worried you're computer skills are outdated? 
For me, I was a fairly new to programming and didn't have a language I already knew. I had dabbled in C++ in the early 2000's and I liked it. I can't say I put much effort in staying current in tech since that time. When I was looking into this course I wasn't even familiar with Window OS's post Windows XP. I used computers at work that ran Windows 7 - 10 but I only used them for very  basic tasks. Upon signing up for the course I had to get myself a proper laptop but I was definitely overdue. ; )
My point is, I barely had a hobby remotely related to tech before I took this course and I didn't struggle due to that. I had played around with some Linux distros on an ARM device (Raspberry Pi 3B+) I purchased on a whim a few years ago but it wasn't even operational when I committed myself to taking the course. I was absolutely a novice. 
I just recently finished the course and I'm excited to see where I end up from here. 

I graduated from the 2010-USD-CYB-PT cohort and could not have had a better experience. The coursework was clearly laid out and the class sessions were a perfect complement to the pre-work. The Instructor and Instructional Associate provided real world examples and applied industry experience to better prepare the students for the Cybersecurity field. On top of covering a large range of topics (Programming, Linux, Windows, Red Team, Blue Team etc.), the student success and career success teams were absolutely phenomenal in ensuring student success as well connecting graduates to relevant work experience and networking. If the students are willing to follow the guidance of the Fullstack team and put in the effort, there is no doubt that they will come out of the bootcamp with the capability to start their career in the Cybersecurity field. If there were a way to add more Windows OS related content, that would be my only suggestion in order to build a larger scope of understanding. 

I completed the part time full stack web development bootcamp on Feb 2023. I had the great opportunity to work with great instructors (Kiavash Page & Charles Lucas) and career services (Liana Corniel & Magdalena Lynch) who went out of their way to ensure my cohort had the needed tools to succeed. This bootcamp covered everything needed to succeed in an entry level web developer interview. The course definitely moves fast so you have to be on top of everything and you have to spend time outside of the bootcamp to study and complete work. There is plenty of support if you take advantage of the office hours! You also have to make sure you spend time outside of the bootcamp practicing technical interview questions (codewars/leetcode) to ensure you are ready for interviews. As long as you put in the time and effort, I believe you too can succeed with this bootcamp! 

I had a wonderful experience going through this cyber security bootcamp! Each subject is taught by a different teacher, each teacher comes from an experienced background in cyber, allowing for a variety of dynamic environments to learn in. Career services are very helpful and contain everything you need to structure your resume, LinkedIn, as well as interviewing skills. I have to compliment them on their accommodations, as well. If you are having a rough time, no matter what it is, communicate and they will help you! I can confirm this, as someone who reenrolled due to a heavy loss. I found that you get what you put in to this course, and it is a bootcamp so be prepared to work hard!

This course changed my life and empowered me to be a software engineer.  I was extremely lucky to have had such a fantastic instructor, Preston Wallace, and mentor, Jean Leconte. After I completed the program, Laura McClernon worked tirelessly to assist me in finding a job.  I couldn't have done it without their expert assistance.  I would recommend this course to anyone who feels stuck in life and has no idea how to escape.  I had little direction in life beforehand.  I am accustomed to learning on my own, but was struggling to make time for self-improvement.  I needed to make an investment in my future and have a structured curriculum; I was consumed with just living day to day, surviving the daily grind, and worked long hours at low pay to provide for my family.  Now, thanks to Fullstack, I can escape that cycle and improve my circumstances for myself and my family.  I feel like I am in control of my life again, with a bright future ahead of me!

The UC Chico Production Bulletin System class is a great tool for all upcoming prod coders. The production unit series of courses (TFDP 173) provides instruction and felt like an effective boot camp for what I'm getting into with studio system coding.
