NexGenT (DBA NGT Academy) was founded by two Air Force veterans who have trained thousands of engineers for the military. They have combined the military-style training philosophy of job readiness with decades of network engineering and cyber security experience working at Cisco Systems, Arista Networks, and Dimension Data into an immersive program to get people into cyber security or networking careers faster and more effectively than ever! NGT Academy is on a mission to help 1 million people get tech jobs by 2030. There will be 3 million unfilled cyber security jobs in the market by 2021. We want to close that skills gap by providing people an affordable education that gets them job-ready for a career in cyber security. NGT Academy believes that students shouldn’t be left with outrageous debt from degrees that don’t teach the required skills to succeed in the workplace. We believe we have the best program to equip anyone to be cyber security specialists in the fastest way possible. We believe in having a strong foundation in network architecture before students go into our cyber security training. Once the student masters the fundamentals in networking, they are better prepared to step into our cyber security training program along with real-world projects.
I was new to the tech industry and NGT Academy's instructor and courses really broke everything down to me in ways that make sense. I have have two certifications, FSNA and Security plus. Thank you NGT for preparing me in the It field.
Great program. Dedicated to training people in IT. Defiantly recommend for new recruits and experienced.
Growing your knowledge base and improve you Network Engineering skill starts with trustworthy mentorship. Just follow and engage consistently with NGT Academy structured training process and trust their lead you will see the change you wish to see.
I think this program is very well set up and is designed to ensure success in both the program and outside of the program. I really appreciate all the instructors. I have been going through some difficulties in my life for the past several months and I still have had helpers from NGT reach out to me to help me get back on track. love the program and want to continue to success!
A great learning platform with you in mind keep up the great work
PLEASE NOTE: I would like to start this review by noting that I completely recommend NGT Academy and have successfully referred Victor V. to NGT Academy, he started last month and is enjoying he progress thus far. I will continue to refer people to NGT Academy as it is the best place to receive this level and type of education. My previous review was a 2 star and was completely harsh and undeserved. My two star review was based on frustration with some particular areas and not on NGT Academy as entire program. Even though their are issues, after speaking directly with Jacob I understand that these issues have been identified and are in the process of getting fixed. I would like to state what each star if for in my opinion. Star 1 is for the content. The content is well written and is organized with the intension on not overwhelming the student. Star 2 is for the response to issue if you have an issue you will get a quick and by an actual human. Star 3 is for real world scenario in their labs and exams. Even though I have an issue with "distractors" in quizzes that doesn't mean that the quizzes are incorrect. Star 4 is for the team, Jacob and all that work at NGT have been kind and want to help you succeed not only in NGT Academy but also want you to succeed in your career. This is worth two stars on its own however the reason one star is missing is even though they are doing things correct there is definite areas of improvement and since you the student are paying for this service you expect to receive a top tier frustration free learning environment that doesn't contribute to the frustration.
The explanations were great: some concepts that I didn't understand previously when the same things were taught to me were clearer as a result. Also, the ultimate demo lab that we did was absolutely like one I did years ago, but less effectively, when I had to set up the internet & phone system of a startup where I worked (but w/o any of the configurations, since I didn't know them). All in all, a very good course. Can't wait to complete FSNP & start the job hunt
Over the last few weeks I have learned so much already. Things that I've always had interest in and questioned on how it was done was answered. The labs associated with the lessons just gives you so much more. I can't wait for the weeks ahead!!
The in-depth training videos help make sense of the industry and the details you need to know in order to be successful in this field.
Great courses. I've been trying to understand some networking concepts for a while. I finally got them clear and neat with NGT courses. Jacob is such a great instructor and mentor.
There are a lot of links/groups which can make things overwhelming. Be sure students are into a program they are going to stick with. Step by step instructions are very helpful. And being able to pause the lesson, rewind and start again is a added benefit. Having resources on standby almost all the time or responses very quickly is a bonus.
covers a lot of content without feeling overwhelming. working labs helps drive the lesson home by having you actually do the work that you just learned.
The instructions and the lab practices are great. The course, without a shadow of a doubt, stands as a beacon of greatness in the realm of education. Its brilliance emanates not only from the profound knowledge it imparts but also from the impeccable blend of instruction and hands-on lab practices that breathe life into learning. The instructions provided are nothing short of exceptional. They are a symphony of clarity, wisdom, and expertise, delivered with a finesse that makes even the most intricate subjects feel approachable.
Great information and tools to study
Helping veterans to get into the cyber security field. Videos are able to guide you step by step to your goals.
It was a lot of information I think will help me in landing the role I am looking for.
I like this experience because it was at my own pace. The more i dug into it, the more time i wanted to put into it. Coming from a medical background i didn't know what to expect. This was very new to me like learning a whole new language. It was challenging, but i was interested. I'm looking forward to learn more.
Great step by step training.
The step-by-step training was easy to follow. The labs allowed me to work at my pace but also gain similar experience to having actual hands-on training.
I am extremely thankful for the opportunity to grow and learn in this program. It is going great so far and I am very blessed to learn from it. Thank you again.
