9 years ago | Likes 17 Dislikes 0

Codecademy still has all the same free content, they just added even more content but put up a subscription cost to cover it.

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I really don't think that is true, as I once went through all of their HTML/CSS courses, and when I went back for a refresher, it was paid.

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I did the exact same thing and when I went back they had just added more. It is true. The base courses are still free.

I don't need an app to tell me I only work for about 45 minutes in a day. That's why I decided to go into IT security in the first place.

9 years ago | Likes 445 Dislikes 1

best way to get started in IT security ? learn programming first or any direct way ?

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 1

lol that's funny. I think keeping up with the app becomes just another chore. I tried Habit RPG for awhile but it gave me more to do.

9 years ago | Likes 67 Dislikes 0

Both of these comments are dead accurate.

Focus on your specific area of interest I'm doing CIT. But lean toward more programming classes. Talk with advisors and research good luck.

Get your foot in the door with a support job. Yes it sucks, but having any IT experience is better than none at all post-grad!

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

Also, when you find a support job, see if someone in the systems/network/sec team will mentor you. Mentors are amazing!

Look at your college's job website and apply in their IT/customer service center if they have one. Thats what ive done, great foot in door

Having a programming base is always great, if not programming then SQL or web design. Most colleges in my area actually have 4 year

IT security bachelors. Once you're fresh out of that much depends on specialization. I've personally gone into the IDS/IPS network ops route
