Question 1

Do I need prior tech experience?

Accepted Answer

No. The first three weeks build foundations from the ground up. We accept absolute beginners alongside career changers and IT support pros.

Question 2

What's the time commitment?

Accepted Answer

Plan on 12–15 hours/week for 12 weeks: live sessions, lab work, and self-paced reading. Sessions are evening + weekend friendly.

Question 3

Is the program online or in-person?

Accepted Answer

Fully online with live instruction, recorded sessions, and virtual labs you run on your own laptop in EVE-NG. No physical hardware required.

Question 4

What hardware or software do I need?

Accepted Answer

A laptop with at least 16 GB of RAM and ~1 TB of free disk space, plus EVE-NG installed (Community or Pro). We'll help you get EVE-NG set up in week 1 if you haven't already. No physical routers, switches, or firewalls needed — every lab runs virtually.

Question 5

What certifications will I be ready for?

Accepted Answer

By graduation you'll be well-prepared for CompTIA Network+, Security+, and most of Cisco CCNA. We focus on real skills first; certs are a byproduct.

Question 6

What if I can't pay $5,000 upfront?

Accepted Answer

Use the 4-installment plan: $1,250 at enrollment, then $1,250/month for 3 months. No interest, no credit check.

Question 7

What if I miss a live session?

Accepted Answer

All sessions are recorded and you keep lifetime access. You'll also get a 1:1 catch-up if you fall behind.

Question 8

Is there a refund policy?

Accepted Answer

Yes — full refund within your first 7 days in the program, no questions asked.

Question 9

When can I start?

Accepted Answer

Any Monday. We run rolling enrollment — once you enroll, your week-1 materials and lab access unlock the following Monday, and you join the next live session that week.

Question 10

Do you help with job placement?

Accepted Answer

We provide resume review, interview prep, mock NOC/SOC scenario interviews, and intros to our hiring network. We don't guarantee jobs — we guarantee preparation.

Questions, answered.
