What Do Graduates Have to Say?

"I always found interest in cybersecurity. I had a passion for this huge field that keeps evolving. I looked for courses online, and found that most of them are very hands off, a video running on a website. Then I found Wawiwa’s Cybersecurity program. I registered and throughout the program, actually found myself looking forward to class. It’s a live session, with a lot of practical work, working on real-life cyber tools and experiencing what they can do. The instructors have real-life stories and examples from the field to get points across. It makes the program really exciting!”
