WHERE TO GET CYBERSECURITY CERTIFICATIONS
For students who want to prepare for an entry-level job in cybersecurity without completing all the coursework required for an associate degree or a bachelor’s degree, a certification is a good first step. No previous work experience is required. The certifications are sometimes called Network Security or Information Assurance. Some courses are offered only online, others are a combination of on-campus and online. NOTE: Schools add programs every year. Please let us know if we have omitted a school by emailing us at bblack@start-engineering.com.
