What makes us different
The common challenge for cyber talent is the lack of practical experience. Most of cybersecurity training programs are lecture-based. While students can memorize course materials to pass an exam, they rarely apply their knowledge to complete an end-to-end project. In other words, they are not job ready.
We are not just another school or training shop. Our mission is to develop the next-gen talent through the challenge-based learning and team collaboration.
Our Learning-DNS model
Learning by Doing
Learning by Networking
Learning by Sharing
In short, we empower you to achieve the best ROI for your career development!
What industry experts say about our program
Steve Rainville
President, Cyber Defence Corp
"I have had the opportunity to be a judge for the team presentations in the Cloud Security Experiential Learning Program. I was impressed by the cloud architectures each team built and the level of detail students provided to justify their designs. This is not just another online class; learn, design, build and test your solution while having seasoned SMEs to answer questions."
Ameen Sait
Security and Cloud Thought Leader
"I attended a few of the sessions at a personal capacity and I was very impressed with the quality of the course and the contents. It truly gives an edge to the students from a theory and practical perspective especially the team projects and competition at the end of the course. Would highly recommend this course for anyone who wants to work in IT Security."
Arani Adhikari

"The Cloud Security Experiential Learning Course is a pioneer in the field of innovative practical cyber-security training in the non-academic sphere.

Akash Chatterjee
Technical Business Analyst, Scotiabank
"The Cloud Security Experiential Learning program helped me cross the bridge between technical learning and hands-on experience so that I could feel empowered and have more impactful conversations, viewing the cloud and platform security from the customers' point of view. It helped me to see cloud security firsthand rather than as bolted on. I understand far better than ever before how to be a part of a full-scale cloud security solution."

"The program was truly experiential and challenging and gave me the opportunity to up-level my technical as well as non-technical skills such as team working and leadership skills. Knowing many professionals in the cloud field and having access to the hands-on labs for a year, are excellent assets from this program that will definitely change my work life!"
Ellie Soroush, CISSP
"This was a truly impactful program. Challenge-based learning and team collaboration were effective and unique ways of ensuring mastery of rather complex concepts.

It is a high-value program and I would definitely recommend it."
