This individual, Tolulope, is a fraud. Be extremely cautious, his advertisements specifically target Africans seeking cybersecurity jobs. I was personally deceived and exploited by him. He failed to deliver on every promise he made. Do not fall for his scam; he is a con artist, plain and simple.

About 5 weeks ago, I was offered the option to pay $199 for Tolu's five-day challenge scheduled for the evening of the following week, and while intrigued, I worked 3 of those evenings and dismissed the offer. Last week, it was offered to me again, but at no cost!? I had my lunch hour open this week, so I signed up and I just completed the 5-day Cybersecurity Challenge. While the information was in-depth each day and provided a good basis for "whetting the whistle" in this genre of occupations, and provided some good information about resume writing, LinkedIn construction, and interviewing, I became suspect on day 4 when speaking about resumes and LinkedIn profiles: His team would rebuild and reconstruct both for Cybersecurity jobs - for which none of us had any experience. On Day 5 we looked at a resume which supposedly reflected a recent mentee's application for a job at Tik Tok - it reflected at least 10 years of experience in the genre of cybersecurity - ??? How is this possible if the person was just finishing up their 90-day course and had no real practical experience? I asked that question in the chat and was advised that the resume [my words] is tailored to the role of the posting!! Sooo - the experience listed in the resume was fraudulent? I have since inquired about who and how a reference for this mentee is handled when Tik Tok calls upon those companies reflected on the resume and wants verifiable documentation of their work experience. Furthermore, I had noticed the same exact people were asking questions via video every day of the five days, and mine which were written were not answered until 2-3 hours after the presentation was completed. I have since learned that the glitches I was seeing during the presentation were simply edits, and everything we viewed was pre-recorded. The entire week, while providing good solid information [thus 2 stars], it was only building toward a 90-day educational and job search forum that would likely cost a substantial amount of money. I was correct, but it was much more than the $5000 I suspected. $25000 - $65000 for 90 days - 180 days with a year of further support with a moneyback guarantee, the cost dependent upon the program selected. Many complained they couldn't afford it, many complained they only had 3 hours to make the first payment of $1599 and couldn't discuss finances with their spouses until after work [and after the timer to pay expired]. While I never intended to move forward because of my schedule, it is scary to think there are folks who were begging for additional time to make a payment while not considering that the facade of the program was questionable. On day 5, it was clearly mentioned that the prep for the certifications was paid for, but NOT the actual testing! The testing for CISM and CISA can cost $700, add C-Risk, and it's more than $1100 [per multiple internet sites]! If one is paying $25000 for the "basic" silver program, for what reason are the tests not paid by the program? Also, I spoke to an HR person working locally for Google - your background is seriously scrutinized - if you put something on your resume, this HR person advised me that they know HR folks at other cyber related companies that will be contacted to verify your work history no matter whom you may list as a reference. I would tread very carefully. Tolu did state that your integrity can be and will be put to the test and one misstep can [my word] "blacklist" you from the community. Think very carefully how you're investing your money...

The program may be well intended but what makes his own learning experience different from others program,non,he only want to chum out cheap courses without real world best practices and experience.Same course Cost less than $100 on udemy.He gets the fee but too busy to teach claiming he has more than 2 jobs.Does that help any body?.He should stop scamming innocent people.I which I could get my refund

I think the program was well intended but they're probably overwhelmed by high number of students. They need to do more on the technical part of the training and interview prep. I won't recommend for now, thank you.
