From Teacher to Cyber Security Analyst
Frequently Asked Questions
Why Cyber Security?
Those who enter the Cyber Security sector are rewarded with both high salaries and long-term career security. With the integration of technology into every field, the importance and demand of this field is increasing. With the competencies you gain throughout your education, you will become an expert who can respond not only to current needs, but also to the technological requirements of the future.
As CS VISOR graduates, you have a very good chance of getting a job in a short time with the advantage of strong mentoring support, SOC experience and alumni network. To date, more than 350 of our graduates with different professional backgrounds have started working in leading companies in Europe after their education.
In short, by studying cyber security, you can build a career with a future, not just a profession.
Who can participate in Cybersecurity trainings?
In terms of job scope and development pattern, “Cybersecurity” is a specialized version of the broader IT field with a security dimension.
The minimum qualifications to participate in a training program in this field include basic user level computer knowledge, at least reading comprehension of the English language, and knowledge of the local language at a level that allows the trainee to express his/her knowledge during job interviews. Except where English is the first language, if the trainee’s knowledge of the local language is not sufficient for an interview, a minimum of “upper-intermediate (B2)” level English may be considered sufficient to start.
In order to get a job in this field, in the current conjuncture, it is not necessary to have a university degree or equivalent in IT or to have worked in this field in the past. However, in this field, there is a need for a training process that includes practical applications at an intensive level and in accordance with market conditions.
Therefore; those who meet the above criteria can find a new career chance in the field of Cyber Security by participating in this training, regardless of their graduated branch or past experience.
What are the basic certifications needed to have a profession in Cybersecurity?
In order to have a profession in the field of cybersecurity, regardless of career background, the trainee must have two international certificates, which are basic and licensing certificates, showing that they are competent in this field.
The first one is “CompTIA Security+” and the other one is “ISO 27001 Information Security-Foundation” certificates. Our trainees will be able to obtain both of these certificates during the course. Both certificates are valid and prestigious certificates all over the world.
At the end of the course, while continuing their active job search, they can support their current situation with additional “Certificate Programs” and “Project Studies” that they want to specialize in or overlap with their past professional experiences.
The most important issues to be considered in the certification process are that the certificates received should be supported by theoretical knowledge, that the training should be realized with practical experiences, and that they should not be “over-qualified” unnecessarily without any infrastructure.
What is the duration of Cyber Security Specialization Trainings?
CS VISOR GmbH offers a special professional training environment for “Cybersecurity Analyst/Specialist” training where a trainee with a basic knowledge of computer technologies/usage can get a good job as an expert in his/her field within a 33-week training process consisting of 7 stages, thanks to its academic and managerial staff, technological infrastructure and a real Security Operations Center (SOC) that provides internship opportunities for its trainees.
How much are the training fees?
It is possible to attend the trainings 100% free of charge with “Gutschein” support from the Jobcenter (JC) / Agentur für Arbeit (AfA). In case of Gutschein support through JC/AfA, trainees are also offered very special opportunities.
For trainees who do not have “Gutschein” support, i.e. who have to cover the course fee with their own financial means with the individual payment option, we have prepared a special support package.
Within the scope of our “Vocational Training Program” and “Social Support Project”, we offer a fully installment payment option for our “Cybersecurity Analyst/Specialist” course at up to 75% discounted prices, in two stages (the first stage during the course and the second stage after finding a job at the end of the course).
For more information on the financial and academic aspects of the course, please send a message to the WhatsApp hotline “+49 1516 393 1528”. We will get back to you as soon as possible for consultation purposes.
