Teaching CASP+ next week

[Gregory Childers]

not only that, but people think that if they pass CASP+, they can get a job in security... despite most security jobs requiring several years of experience.

These cybersecurity bootcamps and universities are doing the same thing with graduate degrees in cyber security: give us lots of money, we will give you a piece of paper, and since there is such a skills demand, you will join a growing field.... completely ignoring the fact that most new grads won't get a security role without years of experience, even if they graduated from a BootCamp or have a masters in cybersecurity.

I tell current college students and college graduates that a degree guarantees nothing. They still have to get experience, and that usually starts at the bottom.
