I've been a scaffolder in Scotland for the last 17 years and now studying to go into cyber security. Worried about the future of the industry. Been loving learning, doing comptia, network+, ccna, security+ and 2 Microsoft courses through ITcareerswitch in the UK. And also doing HTB. It's a lot whilst having a full time job, training and studying but hoping it all works out. My body can't take the graft anymore, bodies in bits these days

My daughter is planning to take a BS in Cybersecurity at a local community college when we move next year. I’m sharing your video with her to help guide her. Thanks for the info.

The WGU degree programs are legit and full of meaningful skills. In the Cyber Master's, many of the assignments feel like something I have done or would do at work. It is very applicable to the real world.

I always come back and watch old videos when I have low motivation to pump me up. Trying to do no zero days lol

Josh, you're such a FKIN gem. I am so excited to have a proper roadmap and follow this. I try to do extra, but I end up overwhelming myself, which I'll try not to do.

Cheers!

Thank you for this video, I am in the Army and have been for 8 years now as an IT Specialist. I was working on getting out February 18 of next year but my wife has been diagnosed with FND recently. After a few failed interviews with Northrop Grumman, GDIT, and etc for mid/ senior level positions and the thought of my wife’s expenses I just re-enlisted for 2 years in the military. I’ve never felt more powerless for myself or my wife. I am working on my Bachelors in Cybersecurity and will be done in March and already have Sec+ I want to acquire all the skills I can in the next two years to never feel the way I do now again. Thank you for this information I will definitely be following as I try to build myself up into a better position.
