    Really cool video. I only need the CISM to get all certs required to smoke half the degree. And based on your insights the other half can be done in one term. If you take 2-3 weeks per class on those who require only a paper it means that in 2 to 2 and half months you finished 3 classes and have close to 4 months to work on the class with paper and test and the capstone. That is super doable. Thanks for the time taken to provide this information, I'm now really considering going for the CISM with the help of my employer (at least 50% of the cost) and then getting the degree.

    Nice vid, thanks for the info. On setup I would recommend a pop filter for your mic. Should help smooth out the peaking.

    Id adjust the lighting
    Brighter,and maybe add something to your back round so it’s not just a blank wall? That’s just me
    I’d get the lighting to where you don’t have a shadow in the back round and adjust the camera to where I don’t see the corner of the wall

      Sounds like a solid path. And I'll adjust next video, experimenting with things and ended up a little loud.

    You keep saying for some of these classes you just need to write a paper. Ok but how many pages for each paper? Cause dam I’m not good at bs’ing for 50 pages.🤦🏿‍♂️

    I have a B.S. in psychology and currently making the transition over into tech. Currently enrolled in Google cybersecurity program to learn the basics. Thinking about enrolling in WGU but don’t know if I should get another Bachelors or Masters could any body give me some insight or path recommendations?

    11:34 So if you have these certs, you can transfer and validate these courses or do you still need to write a paper?
    I thought transferring credit means these courses will be counted as complete. Am I missing something?

    Hi, was not clear to me from your video if I transfer in CompTIA PenTest+ do I still need to write a paper for D484 Penetration Testing or the 4 credits are granted?

    • @alexsheppe
      @alexsheppe  5 місяців тому +4

      You’ll get the credit, no paper needed. I misspoke in that part of the video, clarified in the description.

    I’m already enrolled to get my Cybersecurity bachelors, how viable would it be to get a second Cloud Computing bachelors from WGU to go along with it and seek for those Cloud Security roles in the future?

    • @skylergardner2792
      @skylergardner2792 5 місяців тому +1

      I personally would never recommend getting two bachelors, especially in essentially adjacent fields such as IT and Cyber. You'd be better off going for a master's after your bachelor's if you really feel the need. Especially since it's shorter at one to two years. A master's could compliment your bachelor's in Cybersecurity, something in IT, business, etc. But you might not even really need it.

  • @dayanna024

    do you recommend this degree for someone with no tech background who seeks a career change? I have a bachelors in biology looking to get into cybersecurity and thinking of pursuing this program to obtain both the certifications/education in one go and break into the industry. How difficult do you think it would be to complete this in 1-2 terms if so?
    TIA

      Hi Dayanna, out at the moment, I’ll try to get back to you later.

    • @alexsheppe
      @alexsheppe  3 місяці тому

      Cyber is a hard field to break into. A Masters and a bunch of certs could work, if you try your first job maybe something more IT. Honestly it’s hard for me to give an opinion on this. I would try to look up some videos and reddit posts on what a cybersecurity analyst does everyday and see if that’s something you’d like to do. If you want to do it, go for it. You can also check out the Data Analytics Masters as Data Analysts would be easier to break into.

    Your mic is WAAAAY too hot. Turn that gain down! And here's a tip: Do a recording before your video and see how it sounds. You are clipping, which is nearly impossible to do on this mic, but somehow you managed it. Sensitivity is wayyyy to high.

    I don't like the new setup. You're too close to the mic and the audio is clipping.
    In your video below the audio was perfect:
