Success Stories
What our students say
"
Student Outcome
"A huge career change… Jose as a professor was the one who opened my eyes! He showed me the reality of the market and what I needed to leave my comfort zone. I went from working at the same company for 9 years with no opportunities in cyber, to a Senior position at a very important company. Super happy — can't wait to enroll in the next course."
Luis Marin
Senior Solutions Architect @ Akamai
"
Student Outcome
"After so much effort, it was worth it. At first it was very difficult for me to find a job, and thanks to Bothrops I made it! Initially things didn't go well because of a poor company choice, but Bothrops kept supporting me through the process and I was able to reach where I am today. Thank you so much!"
Sebastian Gutierrez
Incident Analyst @ DXC Security

Student Outcome
"Amazed by the result. In less than 6 months I went from having zero knowledge or experience in cybersecurity to landing an excellent job as a SOC Analyst at a well-known regional company — at just 19 years old."
