Job description

Trainee Cyber Security

Location: Working from Home

Salary: A£35,000 - A£45,000 per annum

Are you looking to benefit from a new career in IT and Cybersecurity? Skills shortages in the IT sector are driving the need for qualified, entry-level career seekers and career changers.

The Role

The best part is you will not need any previous experience as fully accredited training, which includes tutor support and mentoring, provides you with the skills, practical knowledge and qualifications for you to secure a professional job and career in IT. You will also have the reassurance of a job guarantee upon completion.

Whether you are working full time, part time or are unemployed, this package has the flexibility to be completed at a pace that suits you and can be completed in a few weeks or a few months (step 1 to 4 below). Your job and career goals are completed in 4 easy steps.

1. Step 1 - Accredited Online Training
   The first step is completing a selection of professional, accredited and industry recognised courses from CompTIA which is the global leader in IT Technician, Networking and Cybersecurity training. The training is delivered via multimedia rich video tutorials, practice labs, presentations and quizzes through a portal that you study from home. You will also be assigned an expert tutor and a support mentor to help you throughout your training.
2. Step 2 - Practical Training
   You will gain practical experience by using practice labs which enable you to practice and master what you have learned. Gaining practical hands-on experience gives you confidence to be proficient in your first IT role. This combination of theoretical and practical skills is what line managers need you to have to be effective and confident in your role.
3. Step 3 - Official Exams
   You will then go on to sit the CompTIA Security+ and the CompTIA CySA+ exams to give you the official certifications which will be recognised not only in the UK, but worldwide. The CompTIA Security+ and CySA+ is the most asked for certificates for cyber security specialists.
4. Step 4 - Job Placement
   They work with you to secure your first role in IT. Ideally you will need to gain two years' experience in this role before you can progress into a cyber security role but for many students on completion of the training they can get them straight into entry level cyber roles.

Cybersecurity Role

Once you have completed all the mandatory training your recruitment support team specialises in the IT and Cybersecurity space and roles at this level have an average starting salary of A£35K - A£45K typically being a trainee cyber security analyst or engineer role.

Job Guarantee

Due to the success of this programme and the skills shortage of entry-level IT staff, they can guarantee you will secure a job upon completion of your study programme or they will refund you 100% of your course fees back. This is subject to their terms of learning/terms and conditions.

Please be aware that this is a training plan to get into a future role.
