  *** is a total SCAM. This place should be put out of business and the owners should be sued. This is the type of scam that will ruin your credit and leave you with nothing. They did it to me and many other people. Read the ****** reviews from real people. All the fake reviews are paid for and totally untrue. *** IS 100% A SCAM!!!

  Were sorry to hear about your dissatisfaction. However, wed like to clarify a few important facts:You enrolled in the program by signing an agreement that includes a 14-day withdrawal policy, during which you could have exited without financial obligation. No request to withdraw was submitted during that window.Since then, youve completed over 50% of the program, earned an in-house certification, and were issued an industry certification exam voucher - all of which reflect active participation and delivery of services on our part.Our *************** team offered support, which you declined. This support is a key component of both job placement and our 365-Day Tuition Refund Guarantee, which you are not eligible for based on the terms outlined here: ************************************************************************************************************************ We recognize that online training is not the right fit for everyone, but calling this program a scam does not reflect the reality of the services you received, the resources made available to you, or the signed agreement.We remain open to assisting you should you wish to complete the program or reconnect with ***************.NGT Academy Support Team

  I was person in the medical field looking for a change in career. I saw an ad for them on Instagram and instantly fell into the allure of someone in the IT and Cybersecurity field could make. They even spiced it up with essentially "anyone could do it regardless of their background". Well, This is not the case at all. I first got put on a loan program with a shady company called the ********************** They are horrible to communicate with about the loan and have an F rating in the BBB. Secondly, almost all of the videos you pay to access can be found on ******* and the quizzes and tests you complete are not graded by anyone. You are going into massive debt to be able to access their mild sense of direction and countless emails you get from *********************** with meaningless information and small bread crumbs of companies hiring. I spoke with hiring managers from ****** and Amazon who both said the same thing. They do not care about any certificates you have and only look for experience. With these courses, you dont earn any work related experience, just a piece of paper.I spoke with NexGenT about issuing a refund, as I decided this was not the direction I wanted to go. Hiring managers were telling me I was wasting my time and money with these online bootcamps. *** told me I completed over 50 percent of the coursework, therefore no refunds would be issued. On my student portal, I only signed up for the Network stack. It showed I completed around 44% of the course work. I sent screen shots to them proving my case and ***** would say nope, they have me at 56% and therefore they do not have to refund. False sense of security to a student when we are shown one thing on our portal, but NGT is measuring differently. Please stop being greedy when you do nothing for your students and we teach ourselves . Your courses are on ******* for free. Your "tests" are posted on other platforms. Your live seminars are posted on *******. GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!

  I feel very frustrated and disappointed with the cyber security program that I joined at NexGent in 2021. I joined this program out of complete desperation because I needed higher income. The program consisted of just the instructor reading slides and not actually teaching anything. I was a part of when the cyber security program began and felt like it was not ready to be launched. I now am still in the process of paying back the $25,000 which is so stressful especially when I don't feel like I learned anything.

  Hi there *******, In your initial program we provided a knowledge based learning experience and also skills-based learning through an online cyber range in addition to certification attainment and career services. These services are still available to you, however we have also made updates to the program format as well as the lab environment which is no longer performed in on-line cyber ranges and is instead completely built out locally using virtual machines. I have provided you with access to all of the new program format and you have access to our current career success team via our community. I would highly recommend reaching out to us and also checking out your updated program access and updated program format. We have also been able to help some students with their *** however some are not owned by us and we have no control over those. In any case, we are here for you and truly care about your success. Please reach out to us via the student community and we will get you on track!

  Not sure about these low reviews. But this was my experience. This school has completely changed my life. Im a 49 year old that was in the film industry for 25 years. I decided to change my career and dove into NextGen. I was able to complete the school in only 4 months got my CCNA and got a job making 6 figures about 2 months after finishing. Most people that complain about the school just dont put in the work. The school provides the tools but its up to that person to put in the study and the work. Thank you Next GenT for helping me in a major transition in my life.

  As someone who completed the **** course and got a job in the engineering field shortly after graduation, this school does exactly what they say. The courses are comprehensive, the materials covered are vast, and everything learned put me leagues ahead of people I work with who had been in the IT field for 10+ years. If I could go back and do this again, it would be the first thing I did after the military. I am 2 years out from graduating and was reached out to, to see how I am doing and my career growth. They absolutely care about their students during the courses and getting jobs, they treat you as a peer when working in the field. Nothing but respect from everyone there, even though I was keeping to myself going through the classes. Highly recommend this if you are looking for a career change or looking to learn more about a certain subject. Cheaper than college, more personal, and mentors always willing to help.

  Very pricey and trust me, they do not get you the job they promised theyd help you get after you get certified! You start paying even if the current job you have is not the job they promised to help you get, they make you enter your gross pay (the pay you obviously dont take home after tax), of course you get screwed over and you dont have the power to seek leniency because you signed a contract stating that once you get the job they promised, then you start paying. Given the inflation plus triple-demic, these company will make you even more broke than you were before your useless training and piece of paper! Did we reach out to their consultant? YES we did but guess what nothing happened because they send your resume to recruiters whose first few questions are: Do you have a Bachelors degree? Or Do you have 5 yrs of experience to the field? Ahhh NO! So yes, these people will just ask you the money you owe them for giving you training that would not in ANY WAY help you land the job they promised you wouldnt have a hard time getting because they said they will assist you! Unfair and unjust!
