The Course

Our bootcamps are designed to take someone from any background, with or without prior IT experience, and teach them the skills needed to launch a successful career in cyber security.

CAPSLOCK's 'Certified Cyber Security Practitioner' Full Time bootcamps include over 360 hours of live, online tuition in a virtual classroom. The learning is hands-on and problem-based, meaning you'll be solving real-world cyber problems in a simulated work environment and gaining valuable first-hand experience and skills.

You'll cover a whole host of topics, from governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) and ethics to cloud security and penetration testing. Please see below for an overview of the problem areas and topics we cover.

The course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Information Security and includes 5 industry-recognised certifications:

• Ce-CSP - CAPSLOCK

• Security+ - CompTIA

• Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) - Cloud Security Alliance

The Full Time course takes 16 weeks and live classes run from Monday to Friday, 09:30 - 14:30. There is the option to study Part Time if you’d prefer. 

The Cost

CAPSLOCK offer four different ways for learners to fund their place on these bootcamps, including options to pay nothing up-front. Tuition options include:

Future Earnings Agreement - Join CAPSLOCK and pay nothing up-front. Then, pay 13% of your gross monthly income for 48 months but only after you've graduated and are earning over £25,000.

Pay Up-Front - One up-front payment of £9,500 (inc VAT). Ideal if you've got the means to immediately invest in your future.

Knoma Loan - Arrange an interest-free loan with Knoma to spread the cost of your tuition over 2 - 10 months. 

Lendwise Student Loan - Arrange a private student loan with Lendwise and spread the cost of your tuition over 2 - 6 years.

You'll receive the same world-class education and support regardless of how you pay.
