Cybersecurity is one of the fastest-growing fields in tech, and this program is built to help you break into it. Whether you're aiming for a role as a Cybersecurity Engineer, Cybersecurity Analyst, or somewhere else along the spectrum, you'll come away with the skills employers are actively looking for. The curriculum covers both offensive and defensive security, giving you hands-on practice with tactics that range from endpoint protection to penetration testing, so you understand how to both attack and secure systems.
On the technical side, you'll build a well-rounded foundation that goes beyond security concepts alone. The program digs into Python programming, modern computer networking, Linux distributions, and cloud computing in AWS, the kind of cross-disciplinary skill set that makes you genuinely versatile in the field. By the time you finish, you'll be prepared to pursue entry-level cybersecurity roles with the confidence and practical experience to back it up.

From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and custom-crafted curriculum, we deliver results our alumni are proud of.
Overall, my experience in the Python Programming class was genuinely great. I enjoyed the hands-on learning environment, and having Art as my instructor made a huge difference. The class was definitely tough at times, but in the best way, it challenged me to really dig into the material and helped reinforce what I learned. I’m walking away with a much stronger understanding of Python and a lot more confidence in my abilities.
Brian is very thorough and extremely helpful. He has a very engaging style of teaching.
If you are serious about your learning, whether you have or don't have experience, Noble Desktop is the place for you. Between my instructor's 40+ years of teaching experience and the quality personnel, I know I'm in good hands. I actually believe I can be a Software Engineer now.
Immersive class with no problems.
Great professor! He made it interesting to learn.
I really like Noble Desktop and will recommend it to my veteran friends when they are looking to learn about software programming and engineering. I am learning exponentially more than just trying to study on my own.
Very good foundational class with good information for those just starting out in Python. Getting the class set up and scheduled was very smooth and the instructor was excellent.
Throughout my career, I've had several technical training sessions before this one. Boris was the most knowledgeable and clear instructor I've ever come across. I'll be requesting additional Python training in 2023 and would love to work with him again.
The instructors at Noble Desktop were kind, helpful, informative, and had patience with every student taking the course.
I had a great time with the Python course, and it was a breeze to learn.
Terrific curriculum and content, and a world-class instructor and hands-on practice. Couldn't have asked for a better overall experience. 10 stars out of 5!
I thought the content for the class provided good coverage of the foundations of Python. Art is a good instructor. I like his approach of teaching a concept, then giving us an exercise to work through.
I am learning what I wanted and in the right atmosphere with the right instructor. Art understands Python and knows how to drive its juice into our souls. He is patient and tolerant with us and has so many ways to make each format sink in.
At first I was a skeptic of Noble Desktop due to the the low cost compared to those overly priced bootcamps. However, once Instructor Menninga started teaching, all my doubts went out the window. Besides the instructor(s), the registrar/administrative assistant is amazing! I overslept during the first day of class and nearly missed out - surprisingly the administrative team contacted me via phone, not once but TWICE to ensure I attended class. I was so amazed how much they put into their students. So much so, that I would love to attend again someday. Thank you Amit! Don't think twice about joining, just do it. Best Python bootcamp out there.
