What it is, and who it's for
Most people trying to get into cybersecurity in Nigeria hit the same wall: plenty of free material, no order to it, and nobody checking whether you actually understood any of it. You watch fifty hours of video and still cannot say what you can do.
The bootcamp is the opposite of that. Three weeks, six days a week, one track. Every day has a lesson and a task you submit, and a tutor reads what you submitted. Days unlock in sequence, so you cannot skip the part you found hard.
It is built for students, career changers and early-career professionals. You do not need security experience. You do need a laptop, a working connection, and two to three hours a day for three weeks.
Three tracks
You pick one during onboarding and stay on it. Each track is three weeks with its own curriculum, tasks and capstone.
Defensive security
Blue Team
- W1Understanding the Blue Team
- W2Think Like a SOC Analyst

Governance, risk & compliance
GRC
- W1GRC Foundations & Governance
- W2Risk Management
- W3Compliance, Evidence & Capstone
Connects requirements, controls and evidence across the full GRC lifecycle.
Curriculum is the one cohort 1 completed — see lib/bootcamp-content.ts.
What participants gain
Skills you can show
Every day ends in a submitted task, not a watched video. Red Team finishes on a professional penetration test report; Blue Team on a full incident write-up; GRC on a tested control set with evidence.
A verifiable certificate
Issued digitally on completion and verifiable from a link, so it holds up on LinkedIn or in an application rather than sitting in a downloads folder.
A community that stays
You finish inside a cohort that keeps going — the meetups, the summit, and the people who did the same three weeks you did.
