The GRC Analyst program by Skillweed has been exceptionally valuable to my career. After 7 weeks of knowledge packed well orchestrated content, I finished the program feeling like a professional with 2 decades of experience. Akin’s expertise has been invaluable. He worked closely with everyone on the program to hone and perfect our leadership skills in Governance Risk and Compliance. His knowledge, insight and perspective nature opened my eyes to opportunities for improvement in my management style and I'm a better GRC processional because of the Skillweed GRC Analyst Program.

I recently participated in The Mentor, Mr. Akin Akinfenwa's GRC Analyst Program powered by Skillweed. He is a dynamic, charismatic trainer and facilitator. Akin is excellent at establishing clear directions and explaining why we’re doing what we’re doing by mapping the various Cyber Security Framework. He communicated the course information in a clear and easy manner for us to learn and comprehend with his great facilitation skills as well as encouraged us to collaborate as groups and teammates. After a few days of the Skillweed GRC training, I felt fully prepared and ready to tackle my first GRC Manager's assignment. I strongly recommend the Skillweed GRC Course to anyone who needs a career change or upskill.

I have attended the last two meetings you have had teaching us GRCP and Interview skills. I want to personally thank you so much for the very valued information. I have been interviewing in the last 2 weeks and the very next day after the GDPR training, I had an interview with a data company and that was one of the first questions I got.I had not been actively using my STAR methodology and yesterday was a good reminder. Had an interview this morning and it went very well. Thank you so much again.
