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.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Is programming involved?

    There is no programming involved. You can choose to go to a career path in cyber that requires some programming if you want to pursue that path.

  • Do I need to be a US citizen to get into this?

    It depends. Most jobs will not require citizenship, but you must be authorized to work in the United States.

  • I have no IT background. Can I do this?

    It is essential to have basic knowledge of IT or be willing to put in the hours to learn the basics of IT. Without these basics, you will struggle. We provide links on basics to know before the class if you are interested in joining without knowledge.

  • Do you help with your resume?

    Yes, we provide a draft resume to help build your resume

  • Do I need to commit a lot of time to be successful?

    To be great at anything, we will require some quality time. We recommend a minimum of 1hr a day for the next two months, giving you 60 hrs of study time outside of class time. With this level of dedication, we stand a good chance.

  • Will I get a job immediately?

    It is a fantasy to expect a job immediately. Harvard and other ivy League will not guarantee employment. However, we stand a good chance with the fundamentals and constant focus on applications.

    Some common sites include dice.com, indeed.com, and LinkedIn.

  • Do I need the experience to begin my career?
