See what others have to say

When I decided to further my cyber security development and was already experienced in digital forensics, I researched the various courses and institutions available. Coming across ICSI, what appealed to me the most was the MSc path that offered a track to a Master's Degree.

My experience at ICSI was very rewarding. I enrolled in a MasterPath Certificate in Cybersecurity in June 2020. I was able to practice what I learned using the labs, which were accessible 24/7. I also completed my certification, which contributed greatly to my career growth as an information security auditor at KPMG. The response time from the ICSI support is at another level; I call it an electrical response.

The learning material offered as part of the MasterPath is very well structured and accredited on top. I have passed all certification with top marks and am very happy to have chosen ICSI!

The course material and hands-on exam provided by ICSI are just outstanding. I am extremely satisfied with the quality! This is a great investment if you are looking to start or advance your career in the cyber and information security space. Additionally, ICSI courses are accredited by CREST and UCLAN.

My experience with ICSI has been extremely rewarding. I enrolled with ICSI in May, 2021 for a MasterPath Certificate in cybersecurity. The course curriculum is enriching, practical and full of relevant content applicable in today’s ever evolving digital world. The practical exercises involve hands on labs, which allowed me to master cybersecurity skills. In addition, ICSI provides one on one classes, available for booking, with an ICSI instructor whenever I needed more articulation about the course content. After finishing the CPT and CDFE courses, I managed to secure a job as a tier one Security Operations Center Analyst. I’m so grateful to ICSI for providing me with the great opportunity to kick start my career in cybersecurity.

The content provided by the ICSI regarding the courses included in the Masterpath Certificate was beneficial and inclusive, providing me with all the relevant information needed to understand the scope and pass the exams. Furthermore, the asynchronous delivery method is also helpful as anyone can attend the courses from anywhere at his own pace. Moreover, ICSI provides enough payment plans that fit almost everyone's needs. Furthermore, the instructors are always available, allowing students to choose from a weekly schedule and arrange online meetings to answer questions. Finally, the support team is always there to solve any problems regarding the labs. Therefore, I would suggest this course if anyone wants to continue with the MSc in Cybersecurity at UCLAN.
