IsaacDigital FoundationCyber Security professionalI want to thank the Foundation for putting this tech programme together. Before it, security to me meant setting a strong password on a social media account and hoping for the best. I had no idea how much sits behind that. This programme showed me the rest of it. And it brought out a side of me I had not met. I am grateful to our tutors for the knowledge they poured into me. I came in curious. I am leaving as a cybersecurity student who understands not just what to do, but why it works. **Now, where I am taking it** I am going into application security, so that security is built into software from the first line, instead of being added after a breach. I am starting with the Certified in Cybersecurity, because it is the one I can earn on the strength of what I already have. Then a role doing secure code review beside a development team, and the SSCP once I have the experience behind me. The goal at the end of that road is the Certified Secure Software Lifecycle Professional. That one takes four years of real work. Good. I would rather arrive there having done the work than carry a certificate I cannot stand behind. I want to be the person an organisation calls early, while a system is still being designed, and not late, when something has already gone wrong. This programme is where that started. Thank you.
AdefamsDigital FoundationNow works as a Business AnalystI failed an interview. It was for a Business Development role with one of the top emerging CEOs in Lagos, and I went home that day and decided the answer was not to keep applying with the same skills. I would add tech to what I already had. I applied for the tech training and was shortlisted for Data Analytics and Business Intelligence. Today I am a Business Analyst at one of the top emerging international logistics companies in Nigeria. The offer came before my certificate and before my project defence. That training gave me a foundation I am already putting to work in the role. It changed how I approach a decision, so that I look at the evidence behind it rather than only the outcome. My goal from here is to grow into a well rounded Business Analyst, bringing my business development background together with data analytics, business intelligence and strategic decision making. Looking ahead, I would value training in Business Analysis, Advanced Data Analytics with Power BI, and Project Management. If I had to choose one, it would be Business Analysis.
