Fusion Cyber has been a valuable opportunity to learn a new in-demand skill with community and resources I would not have had access to otherwise. I am still new in the program but have already gained a lot of knowledge and insight into the field. The program is a lot of work but a lot of reward and I feel optimistic about my future in the field of cybersecurity.

Mary B.

Current Student

As a former participant of the Cyber Fusion, I can say that this program is incredibly beneficial. The program provides students with various opportunities, from study sessions to practical testing and mentorship. The guidance throughout the program is exceptional. Cyber Fusion isn't just any standard cybersecurity program. The staff genuinely cares about the knowledge each student retains as they enter the field. The program's quality outcome is a result of rigorous validation and verification standards, the same methods used in standardized testing. Through their validation process, you can understand the evaluation based on feedback from previous cohorts. This allows Cyber Fusion to plan and develop a product that meets student, industry, and business needs. Verification through pre-test execution allows the staff to understand where students are progressing and evaluate areas that require remediation. This static method helps in assessing their performance and contribution as a whole. The program gives each cohort a chance to demonstrate their knowledge over ten months, preparing them for testing for multiple CompTIA exams.
