Testimonial: The GRID Founder, Tyler Strong
“Growing up around computers and technology, I never imagined the vast opportunities the tech industry held. For years, I dreaded going to work, constantly exceeding expectations but never getting the promotions or raises I hoped for. I felt stuck in a career I didn’t enjoy.
Everything changed when I found my way into cybersecurity. I was immediately captivated by the new terms, systems, and processes. Learning and applying these concepts became genuinely enjoyable. In cybersecurity, we’re all on the same team (the good guys) working to protect our organizations from threat actors (the bad guys).
I’ve never been happier in a career. The future is bright for this industry as the world becomes increasingly digital, creating new opportunities in technology. Now is the time to start YOUR journey. Fun fact: you don’t need a degree to succeed or land a high-paying job in IT. The industry is shifting towards skill-based hiring over education-based. Get started today!”
