Course: Cyber Security Traineeship
Placement Date: December 2024

Why did you start the Traineeship?
I started the traineeship as I was always passionate about IT and had done some prior research on cyber security and thought that was a field I could see myself going into and I saw this traineeship as my best way to begin.
What did you enjoy most about the Traineeship?
I enjoyed the CompTIA A+ courses the most as they really deepened my understanding and showed me how much I didn’t know and how much I still had to learn I initially found it hard to get into studying the material but I quickly came to enjoy it.
What's your current role like?
currently work as an IT support engineer for IntaForensics were I support various Forensics labs across the country along with the west midlands police I even support small number of users overseas. I love this job as I work within a small team where I am able to deepen my understanding and see the all the things I learnt on the traineeship put into practice on a day-to-day basis.
