Standard track: $8,950 (from $112/week).
Secure AWS and Azure estates at architectural level — where cloud meets security, salaries peak.
Tuition is $8,950 USD — about 9% of the entry-level salary this track leads to. Entry roles start at $95,000–$110,000, the median sits at $140,000, and the ceiling runs to $230,000+. On first-year pay alone, the programme returns its cost roughly every three to four weeks of employment — and keeps returning it for the rest of your career.
Tuesdays 09:00–10:00 · Fridays 10:00–11:00 (Women-Only cohort) — Central Standard Time (CST, UTC−6). One live class every week for the full year, plus your weekly 30-minute 1:1 mentor session (Monday–Thursday afternoons). Check the overlap with your local time before applying.
Foundations (wks 1–10): networking, Linux, AWS and Azure fundamentals.
Security engineering (wks 11–24): IAM, encryption, network security, compliance frameworks.
Architecture (wks 25–36): multi-cloud design, zero-trust, threat modelling at enterprise scale.
Capstone & placement (wks 37–46): an enterprise architecture capstone, certification exams, interview phase.
Certification preparation built in: AWS Security Specialty · (ISC)² CCSP.
Three reasons, in the order employers cite them. First, depth: 46 weeks and 50 live classes produce a candidate who has done the work, not watched it. Second, proof: a capstone employers can test-drive, industry certifications, and a year of documented projects. Third, access: the final phase runs through our developed hiring funnel of partner companies, with introductions made for you and support until you sign.
Every instructor and mentor on this track has had a successful career at top universities and companies, with at least 20 years of experience. Your weekly 1:1 mentor reviews your work, corrects your course, and prepares you for the interviews they themselves used to run.
Our proprietary, custom-built platform adapts each module to how you individually learn, and integrates spaced-repetition scheduling — so phase-one fundamentals are still sharp when interviews arrive in the final phase. Built in-house by our own engineers; because we've taken no venture capital, profits go into improving it rather than into investor returns.
Every enrolment carries a 7-day money-back guarantee (less the non-refundable deposit) and the 6-month job guarantee: graduate without a job in 6 months and you choose six more months of career support or free admission to another track (conditional on documented job-search participation).

Applicants are accepted from anywhere in the world. All live classes and mentor sessions are scheduled on Central Standard Time (CST, UTC−6) — check the overlap with your local time before applying. Minimum age: 16. All prices in US Dollars (USD); all payments are taken in USD.
"Worth every penny. The payment plan meant I could start immediately, and the salary jump paid the course back within my first year."
No pitch, no obligation. Ten minutes with an advisor to confirm whether a track fits you — and whether you fit the cohort.
