Course overview

Our Certified Cybersecurity Professional course will prepare you for a career in an industry with 0% unemployment. This interactive online course will take you from zero industry experience to a job ready, front line Cybersecurity Analyst in less than six months.

The course includes three certifications from CompTIA, certifications which are accredited by the International Organisation for Standardisation and the American National Standards Institute (ISO/ANSI). Accreditation is a way of formally recognising certifications that meet a set of quality standards set forth by a governing body – meaning that they meet or exceed the global benchmarks set forth by these two governing bodies.

The combination of accreditation and through consultation with our Advisory Board of industry leaders, AIICT ensures that the course prepares you for the latest roles in cybersecurity.
