The SoLa Foundation Cybersecurity Bootcamp
In partnership with LA Care
Our 24-week bootcamp is designed to equip students with the skills, knowledge, and hands-on experience necessary to secure an entry-level position in IT or cybersecurity. The program also prepares students to earn the CompTIA Security+ and/or Netowrk+ certification, a key credential for launching a career in cybersecurity.
Throughout the bootcamp, students will engage in immersive, real-world training across a wide range of essential topics:
- Linux and Windows System Administration
- Cloud Administration within Azure
- Ethical Hacking
- Security Operations
- Cryptography
- Computer Networking, and
- Bash and PowerShell Scripting
The bootcamp emphasizes hands-on labs, real-world scenarios, and projects that mirror tasks performed in actual IT and cybersecurity roles. By the end of the program, students will not only be prepared to pass the CompTIA certification exam, but also possess the practical experience to hit the ground running in their new careers.
