Company details

  1. Training School

Written by the company

NexGenT (DBA NGT Academy) was founded by two Air Force veterans who have trained thousands of engineers for the military. They have combined the military-style training philosophy of job readiness with decades of network engineering and cyber security experience working at Cisco Systems, Arista Networks, and Dimension Data into an immersive program to get people into cyber security or networking careers faster and more effectively than ever! NGT Academy is on a mission to help 1 million people get tech jobs by 2030. There will be 3 million unfilled cyber security jobs in the market by 2021. We want to close that skills gap by providing people an affordable education that gets them job-ready for a career in cyber security. NGT Academy believes that students shouldn’t be left with outrageous debt from degrees that don’t teach the required skills to succeed in the workplace. We believe we have the best program to equip anyone to be cyber security specialists in the fastest way possible. We believe in having a strong foundation in network architecture before students go into our cyber security training. Once the student masters the fundamentals in networking, they are better prepared to step into our cyber security training program along with real-world projects.

Definitely recommended for Cisco Networking

Throughout my journey towards achieving my Full Stack Network Associate certification, I have been fully supported by the community I have found with NexGenT Academy. The instructors and support staff are nothing less than amazing! I hardly ever have to wait more than a day for a response to my queries and they explain things in a way that is detailed yet concise. I highly recommend that if you are interested in Computer Networking or Cisco Networking, give them a try!

FSNA

The step by step process help you truly go from zero to engineer. The knowledge based and hands-on brings it all home at the end.

This is working for me

I love this school. I wish it had existed years ago. The hands-on learning and videos are on point. They teach you in a way that is easy to comprehend. They gave me the tools to learn the material, and I appreciate the inner workings of IT. I really hope that I go further. I highly recommend NGT Academy. Wholeheartedly

My personal aspects

Highlight key information more properly instead of death by power point presentations. Also, students should be provided in the cost a laptop.

Success

My experience here at NGT Academy has allowed me to get back into learning mode and learn in a way that works best for me and isn't sitting in a classroom somewhere. The videos and simulations keeps my mind moving and active throughout the course and every module every lesson is set up for our success.

It is a great program with resources…

It is a great program with resources and people available to you to help you succeed. I just completed the FSNA Basic and looking forward to leveling up in the program. It took me an extra week to completed the FQC lab only because I need to review some material for the lab. I am glad I did that because I was able to reinforce my practical hands on knowledge of the material. Slow and steady is sometimes the best way.

Great hands-on networking training

I had a good experience with the FSNA training block. It covered a lot of networking topics and the Packet Tracer labs helped me understand how everything works together. It was challenging at times but overall it helped me learn a lot about switching, routing, and troubleshooting.
