Learner, Advanced Diploma in Cybersecurity

“I did some research and found that Training Vision provided basic but more in-depth training in cybersecurity. I like the fact that we have face-to-face classes. It encouraged discussions that cannot be done easily during online sessions. I don’t mind the career switch. After finishing this course, I do look forward to joining something related to cybersecurity so that I can practice on it.”
