Cybersecurity

Yes! The Cybersecurity Bootcamp powered by Cybint requires no prior cybersecurity knowledge.

While there are no standardized pre-requisites, you will need basic English proficiency, basic math and logic skills, and most of all drive and motivation to learn in an accelerated environment.

Our curriculum is aligned with the NICE-NIST Framework and we will prepare you to apply to roles like Cyber Security Analyst, Forensics Analyst and Incident Responder.

We developed the Bootcamp under the principle of “EVERYTHING you need to know but ONLY what you need to know”. With our accelerated learning methodology (based on military bootcamps), we focus on giving you the specific skills you will need to develop.

In the remote version of the Bootcamp, you will get together with all your classmates and facilitator first thing in the morning for a session where you will get ready for the learning objectives of the day. Then you will go study on the Cybint Platform and at the end of the day, you will get together again with the whole cohort and facilitator for another session to help you consolidate the day’s learning. During the day, if you have doubts you will be able to ask questions to your facilitator, classmates and Cybint experts.

Sure! Ironhack is designed for those who want to start their career in the tech industry. Please check our syllabus and gather all the information for each of the programs. Keep in mind that all our Bootcamps are super intensive. Learning to code is not easy, but if this is what you really want to do, get ready to change your life!

In order for you to practice, we have developed labs that run in “virtual machines”. This means that when you open a virtual machine in a different browser, it will be as if you were in a totally different computer. In these virtual machines you will be able to run different operating systems, access different tools without installing them in your computer and you will also be able to practice in a safe way, without hurting yourself nor others.

Skills in cybersecurity are global, so once you have the skills then you can apply for positions overseas.

Bootcamps are not for everyone, even if anyone can apply for them. The concept of bootcamp comes from the military camps: it means effort, teamwork and passion above anything else. Our Bootcamps are designed for reinventing education and go beyond the passive traditional education. Learning is based on projects, and there are no grades or exams. You will get constant feedback from teachers and classmates, our methodology is hands-on and you will be supported by the Careers Department to achieve your career goals. At Ironhack, the title is not the most important thing, but our job market network, our ability to adapt the content to the market needs and the technical skills of the Ironhackers.

At Ironhack, we believe that diversity and inclusion means supporting everyone. Your age or previous background is not a problem to join the Bootcamp. If you are worried about companies rejecting your profile or having difficulties to get to the job market, we can evaluate your case and check if the Bootcamp is aligned with your career goals. At Ironhack, we are committed to give you an honest feedback and orientation in your career. We admit anyone who shows the Ironvalues and wants to improve their technical skillset.

We can give you some tips and put you in contact with our students' network once you are enrolled, but Ironhack doesn't have any residence or housing available in the campus.

We work with a variety of third party partners and government agencies to provide you with the very best financing options. If you're unable to, or would just rather not, pay for your full tuition upfront, we can break your fee up into instalments to make the payments manageable. Depending on your location and eligibility, you may be able to get your Bootcamp partially or even fully funded. In fact, most Ironhack students use Financing Options to fund their education, so you're certainly not alone in needing a bit of help!

Yes! Our bootcamps don't just help you land a traditional job, they can also give you the confidence and skills to launch your own freelance career and be your own boss.

Career Services are available to you from day one of becoming an official student to one year after graduation. This includes being assigned an experienced Career Coach , who'll help you map out your career path and get job-hunt ready based on current market needs and trends. They'll review your resume, LinkedIn profile, portfolio and pitch.

You'll also have a 1:1 with them to help you get you unstuck when the job hunt gets...sticky or if you need to do a mock interview to prepare you for the real thing. As long as you're actively job-hunting, we'll be on hand to assist you.

You'll also have access to job postings from our global hiring network of more than 1,000 companies!

That's it! You're an Ironhacker!

We're not going to lie, it's difficult, but definitely doable. We're cramming all of the key skills you need to achieve your goals into a few weeks/months. It also gets trickier when you balance Bootcamp with work and/or other commitments. So it's definitely a challenge, and you should be certain that you've got the right motivation to take it on.

That said, you don't need to be a tech genius to succeed. Our alumni are living proof: from Sales Assistant to Data Scientist, from Art History to UX/UI, from Chef to Full Stack Developer and from Music to Cybersecurity.

All you need is motivation. Where there's a will, there's a way.

Each Bootcamp comes with mandatory pre-work, which covers the essential knowledge and basic information of each track. This ensures that everyone will have the same foundational knowledge on the first day of class.

That being said, some people will move faster than others, but that's OK! Our curriculum is designed to adapt itself to those that are moving more quickly and those that need a bit more help.

The best way to get Bootcamp-ready is through completing the pre-work, which aims to give everyone the same foundational understanding of the core concepts in their chosen track.

Full time students will get 50 hours of training in a combination of self-paced and group activities, guided by an instructor in the week leading up to Bootcamp.

Part time students will receive the same training, but entirely self-paced for maximum flexibility. You can get started as soon as you become an official student.

Full-time and part-time Ironhackers receive the same quality education and career support, but each format comes with its own benefits to better fit your goals, lifestyle, financial situation, and state of being. Consider carefully which one makes the most sense for you. Keep in mind that both require the same amount of dedication from you, and will also include some independent work outside of class time.

Part time is a great choice if you're looking for more flexibility and want to work while studying, or need to balance your Bootcamp with other commitments. Full time can help you change careers more quickly, and is great for a more immersive experience, which allows you to get help more frequently from teaching staff and your fellow Ironhackers.

Our Admissions team will be able to advise you during the application process, and figure out which option is the best for you.

There are uncountable benefits to enrolling in a Bootcamp, but let's highlight the main ones:

1. The most in-demand hard skills. We've got our fingers on the pulse of what tech companies are looking for in their candidates, and we're always adjusting our course content to make sure you're getting the hard skills that'll actually get you hired.

2. Hands-on experience. As well as lectures and reading material, every Ironhacker gets experience through hands-on projects that closely resemble what you'll be working on as a junior Web Developer, UX/UI Designer, Data Analyst, or Cybersecurity Officer. Putting your new skills into practice during Bootcamp helps you hit the ground running in your new career, and gives you an awesome portfolio to boost your job search.

3. Personalized career support and development. Our Career Services are available to every Ironhacker and include, but aren't limited to; portfolio, LinkedIn and resume assistance, 1-1 career guidance with a Career Coach, mock interviews, talks with HR and tech experts in your field. You'll also have access to job postings shared by our global network of hiring companies, who are looking for talent just like you. And thanks to us you'll be job-hunt and market-ready when it's time to meet them!

Unlike competitors who guarantee jobs after the Bootcamp or your money back, we don't want you to get just ANY job, but one that's aligned with your long term career goals. At Ironhack, you get out of it as much as you're willing to put in. We equip you with the tools to help you achieve your goals, but it's up to you to open the door to your future.

What we do guarantee is our commitment to you and your goals, and providing you with a quality education, expert career advice, a supportive learning community and a global hiring network.

There are no knowledge requirements for our Bootcamps. As long as you have sufficient proficiency in [LANGUAGE], basic logical skills, enough time, and most importantly motivation, you're fit for a Bootcamp. Each cohort has students from different backgrounds so if you're starting from scratch with your tech knowledge, you're not alone.

Passion above all else! You don't need a particular skill set, and you don't need to come from a certain background. Ironhackers come from all corners of the world and bring a wealth of experiences with them.

That being said, Bootcamps aren't easy! So in the application process we look for people whose long term goals will genuinely benefit from our services. We also look for people who have enough time and energy to dedicate to the Bootcamp, and the motivation to see it through till the end.
