Do not sign up for this program. I beg you to stay away from this company. All they do is make promises that they can't keep. This program won't even help you meet the job requirements needed to be hired as an IT auditor. The program is a scam!

Review for Baxter Clewis Consulting
I’m incredibly grateful for the guidance and expertise that Boyd Clewis provided during my time working with him. His deep knowledge of PCI DSS and other security frameworks has made a huge difference in how I approach challenges in my career. Boyd has a unique ability to simplify difficult concepts and help you see the bigger picture. He challenged me to think critically about security and to approach it from different angles. His mentorship equipped me with the tools to assess risks and frameworks in a way that is both practical and effective.

Baxter Clewis Academy is a scam
I discovered this program through YouTube ads, where Boyd claimed that no prior IT experience or certifications were needed, and that in 90 days, you'd be ready for a six-figure job in cybersecurity. I got in touch with them, and a person named Anthony N. Grim sent me a text to schedule a Zoom meeting. During the meeting, he told me the program cost $20,000, but I’d only pay $1,500 until completing the program. After that, I’d pay the full amount only if I secured a job paying $90K or more; otherwise, I wouldn’t owe anything. This sounded good to me, so I signed some paperwork before starting.
Before we ended the meeting, he asked me to call a number to discuss how I'd be paying the fees. After everything was set up, I received credentials for the PCI DSS course. I paid $360 every month for six months, with a special finance charge on my account. After six months, they cut off my access to the course and asked me to start paying an additional $197 per month on top of the $360.
After the so-called internship, I was told to update my resume. When they saw that I had listed their certification on it, they asked me to remove it. That was one of the biggest red flags for me. I decided to have my bank stop the $360 payments and end any further relationship with them.
A couple of months later, I was shocked when I began receiving daily calls from people demanding that I repay the money they had paid on my behalf. I explained that the money they took from me was gone because I had been foolish enough to trust them, but I couldn’t pay another cent. I told them that if they continued to harass me, I would sue. Despite this, I continued to receive calls from debt collectors and even threatening letters.
Please, don't let yourself get scammed like I did. I regret going through this process, and I hope my experience serves as a warning to others.

Don't do it!!!
Do not join this program. You can get Pci-dss training for free off the pci-dss counsel website. They charge 11k for the course, and you don't even have access to the training for life. They kicking you out after a year and then trying to charge 997 for another year. I have a large social media following and I'm going to make sure I let everyone know NOT to get scammed as I did. NOTE: to be fair, he does know what he is doing, but it is NOT worth 11 to 15k to learn something tou can learn on the pci dss website and you don't even get to keep access to the material.

You came here to hear the truth. Learn from my mistake.
Please believe all the 1 stars rating. Please believe us. You struggled to get that money, Don’t waste your money. I came back here to tell you because you came here to check the reviews. You can get PCI-DSS training with less than $2k not wasting $15k for only PCI-DSS. Don’t borrow loan as I did, I paid the loan over 2 years which amount to over $20k I paid for a certificate that even PCI-DSS industry does not recognize. I know Baxter won’t comment on my post because I gave him 1 star but if it’s a fake review of 5 star now, he will acknowledge it. Moreover, I will gladly appreciate a refund of my money.

Enroll now, worth it.
It was informative, relevant, and needed. It made more sense in 4 minutes than in 4 years of school.
