Hear from the Netcom Training Alumni

"This course has help me gain a basic knowledge into I.T cyber security like I need and may also help me get into the industry once I finished the course. The support you received from netcom is good, effective and relevant with your course. A special shout out to a teacher at netcom training, Amir who taught the course Cyber Security. He has gone above and beyond in my opinion to help us as learners to understand the course and material which we needed to learn. He helps us to understand the lesson and his knowledge is next to none. His classes are fun, enjoyable and you look forward to them as he has a gift for teaching. Thanks you so much Amir for a great Learner experience."

"My teacher Abbas was great, he made the content easy to understand. If we didn't understand something he gave us more resources and would go through it with us. He went above and beyond making himself available to everyone on the course. He created an easy open environment and didn't force anyone to do anything they didn't want to. Netcom has been a great company to do a course with. I would definitely do another course with them if I could. I highly recommend netcom to anyone looking to do any IT courses."
