Mentee in MentorHer
The hands-on learning approach of the all-female cybersecurity mentorship program made a huge difference in my career. Working on real-world cybersecurity challenges and receiving direct feedback from my mentors/instructors accelerated my learning curve. The practical experience I gained was immediately applicable in my job as a former cybersecurity practitioner. This program is perfect for anyone who wants to get practical, job-ready skills in cybersecurity.
