Let’s be real
Security+ can feel impossible when you’re stuck trying to figure it out on your own.
You’ve probably watched hours of confusing YouTube videos. Maybe you’ve read hundreds of pages of boring PDFs... Or worse, you’ve taken the exam and failed leaving you discouraged and second-guessing everything.
The truth is: most people don’t fail because they’re not smart…
They fail because they don’t have a real system.
That’s exactly why we created the the [LIVE] CompTIA Security+ (SY0-701) 10-Day Accelerator—a 10-day, high-intensity, live coaching experience designed to help you pass with confidence in just 10 days.
This is not just another boring bootcamp. This is high-performance, career-focused cyber training led by experts who actually care about your success.

I needed a good cram session. I found your lesson last night 11/29/2024 the night before my exam. I passed the exam today 11/30/2024 after watching your video. I needed this. Great Work. Thank You.

Francois is amazing, engaging, knowledgeable, and helpful. Not only did he explain all context with depth and great understanding, he enabled us and challenged us to understand the material he made sure you could also explain it and sound professional yourself. It was a wonderful experience and I would recommend this company to anyone who needs to learn Security+ from them and I passed my first attempt which was very important to me. I cannot thank you Francois, and the rest of the Afrikana Institute team enough for what they were able to do for me.

Prior to signing up for Cyber Pros Training, I came across a YouTube video of preview class which demonstrated what I was looking for in an instructor. Francois has been very helpful and available during and after the boot camp. He carved out extra time for the exam review and made me feel confident to take the exam. The entire course material and practice exam are on point. I’m so happy that I took this boot camp and was able to pass my CompTIA Security+ exam. Next this is landing a job
