Testimonials

NIST Cybersecurity Framework Bootcamp — The in-depth look into not only what the standards are, but how to apply them, was extremely helpful. I very much appreciate the practical examples that were given.

MSPL-900T00: Microsoft Power Platform Fundamentals — Instructor did an awesome job tying the material we were learning to real world scenarios and giving examples of how he has used in the real world.

Microsoft Excel 2019: Part 1 — The shortcuts that I learned; they will save me so much time in the future. I plan to apply this content to future spreadsheets I will create and/or modify.

CompTIA CySA+ Cybersecurity Analyst — Everything I learned had real-life examples of what I experience in my work field on a day-to-day basis.

AZ-040T00: Automating Administration with Windows PowerShell — Instructor took personal interest in what we were there for and kept an upbeat tone for each lesson. He was able to expound upon any question we asked.

Microsoft Office 365 Online (with Teams for the Desktop) — I knew nothing about 365. That has changed. Thank you!

Implementing and Configuring Cisco Identity Services Engine (SISE) — The class was great at teaching all the different parts of Cisco ISE and the labs were very helpful with setting up a new server and configuring.

NIST Cybersecurity Framework Foundation — Thanks to the Cybersecurity Foundation course, I feel confident in my ability to help assess the state of our current profile and to help implement changes to make our website safer.
