Exactly What Was Needed
All five of my rating categories being 5 stars is for a reason. My personal experience with QuickStart hasn't been a short one because occasionally staff and recruiters will still check up on me (that's impressive because it's been 2 years since I graduated).
Curriculum: Jam packed curriculum that does contain everything you'll need for tests/exams. Not sure about you, but I'd rather have a boot camp that over informs me on the topic I'm preparing for.All five of my rating categories being 5 stars is for a reason.

Curriculum: Jam packed curriculum that does contain everything you'll need for tests/exams. Not sure about you, but I'd rather have a boot camp that over informs me on the topic I'm preparing for.
Instructors: I think my instructor's name was Bill. Phenomenal at what he does and an industry expert. So he gave us a heads up on when to look at certain topics and differentiate between an academia standpoint and then how it's done in practice throughout the industry.
Job Assistance: I actually got my job halfway through the course before they officially started helping. I could put N/A for this portion but I put these projects from the boot camp in my resume and know I only got the position due to having taken this boot camp. It made finishing the course harder with a new job, but I did finish things out.
Overall Experience: Typically the overall experience is an average of all other metrics and so this would naturally be a 5 star. I had some worries about how I'd pay for all this and chose one payment type, but that ended up being rough for my situation. QuickStart was actually willing to help me change back my payment method/plan to the one I should have done from the get go though so bonus points and kudos to them for being flexible. Note: I did not convince them to help me by yelling at them or acting like they owed it to me.
Lastly, if you ever get to speak to Gwen, one of the recruiters, or Bill/William, one of the instructors, they are very valuable connections to have. - Scott BaxterIT Specialist Sys-Admin-Infosec CNATRA NAS CCAD • Graduate • Cybersecurity Bootcamp • OnlineVerified by LinkedInDec 09, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great Place to Start
Great place to start!I was contacted about a 26-week Cyber Security boot camp through Quickstart at the University of Texas at Arlington. I was sold and was anxious to start. The first several weeks were more or less a review for me being in IT for the past 7 years, however, when we got into the good stuff oh man it was fantastic. I learned so much in such a short time. I was able to write a Python program to scan ports, and before you knew it I was hacking in...Great place to start!I was contacted about a 26-week Cyber Security boot camp through Quickstart at the University of Texas at Arlington.

I learned so much in such a short time. I was able to write a Python program to scan ports, and before you knew it I was hacking into systems. It's so much fun and a great place to start. Approximately 3 months after graduation, I interviewed and received an offer from the US Navy as a SYSADMIN INFOSEC IT SPECIALIST. I owe it all to Quickstart and the Cyber Security Bootcamp.

I graduated from the Cybersecurity Bootcamp from Quickstart that was offered through The University of Texas Arlington. I had a previous degree in Cybersecurity from another school but was still lacking any hands-on knowledge.

He made everything become more clear and if we had any questions with our projects he would walk us through on zoom. I highly recommend anyone wanting to get into Cybersecurity to look into Quickstarts program!- Tariq Washington-WalkerCybersecurity Analyst • Student • Cybersecurity Bootcamp • OnlineFeb 22, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Great experience!
I want to thank QuickStart for the awesome experience. For the course to be completely online it was still able to provide me with the knowledge, skills, and understanding of the career I was getting prepared for. The one on one coaching was absolute plus and they were all so helpful in fine tuning those misunderstandings. The job readiness section was also a big help in preparing to get a job! - AnonymousGraduate • Cybersecurity Bootcamp • OnlineMay 24, 2025Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Not satisfied with the Quickstart Bootcamp
I enrolled in QuickStart’s Cybersecurity Bootcamp hoping to gain practical skills and a clear path into the industry. I learned a lot of theoretical concepts, and the hands-on, practical training was useful. The curriculum covered foundational topics, but it was fairly outdated which is not great considering this is an industry that is always changing and evolving.
One major gap was the absence of structured preparation for industry-standard certifications like CompTIA Security+, ...I enrolled in QuickStart’s Cybersecurity Bootcamp hoping to gain practical skills and a clear path into the industry. I learned a lot of theoretical concepts, and the hands-on, practical training was useful. The curriculum covered foundational topics, but it was fairly outdated which is not great considering this is an industry that is always changing and evolving.
One major gap was the absence of structured preparation for industry-standard certifications like CompTIA Security+, A+, CEH, or CySA+. I believe the bootcamp would be far more valuable if students could choose a certification to work toward, with QuickStart providing study materials, guides, and dedicated study sessions. Requiring a relevant CompTIA certification to complete the program would have ensured a tangible outcome and better alignment with industry expectations.
Post-bootcamp career support was another letdown. The career counselors offered generic advice, focusing mainly on resume updates to include bootcamp projects and skills. However, their guidance lacked depth and actionable steps for landing a role. I found more value from a fellow cohort member who provided clearer explanations of the material and shared practical career tips and technical guidance. Their mentorship was more impactful than the official support.
Overall, for the cost of the program, I expected more practical training and robust career support. Others may have had a better experience, but my time with QuickStart fell short of expectations. - AnonymousGraduate • Cybersecurity Bootcamp • OnlineMar 06, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
