# 1 DevSecOps Bootcamp

Yes! The bootcamp is created with working participants in mind, because our participants are often already working as an engineer expanding their skills.

That being said, you can work with the provided materials whenever you want. Be it before going to work, on the weekends or late at night. That is up to you.

You will have access to the bootcamp AND the daily professional support for 2 full years. This duration is much longer than what it takes to complete the bootcamp (which is 4 months, part-time), so even if you need to take several breaks in between, there will be enough time to complete the program 😊

But the great news is that, we provide an option to extend the access to the materials as well as the daily support. So you don’t have to re-purchase the bootcamp after 2 year access expiration.

Plus, after 2 years, you automatically become an honorary member of our TechWorld with Nana alumni group 💪

The bootcamp is a structured course of videos, handouts, Git projects etc. It's structured in a way, that you can easily follow them module by module, lecture by lecture, and work through it in a specific order. This guarantees a smooth flow of the learning process for all our students. It's self paced, so you can schedule your learning sessions, watch the videos and work through the hands-on projects at your own pace.

Compared to the traditional way of live classes, this has actually many advantages over live classes, which are often overlooked. So I want to highlight those here:

HANDS-ON WORK

✅ You can rewatch lectures if you haven’t understood something, stop and practically work along the demos

❌ You can't rewatch. In live classes there is no time for doing deep hands-on work. If they do, either instructor is not able to wait for all students to finish certain tasks or you need to wait e.g. 30mins for other students to get the task done and so valuable learning time is lost very easily. Ultimately, you learn much less in this format.

ACCESS OF MATERIALS

✅ You also have access to the materials for 2 years, which is great because you may want to revisit some lectures, when you actually have found a job or when you work on such tasks. In that case you can refresh some of the knowledge or use the videos as reference.

❌ You can’t revisit lectures and demos later at work. So when you finally need to implement stuff, you may have forgotten many things. Also in other self-paced bootcamps you only get access to the materials for as long as the bootcamp takes. So e.g. when they take 4 or 6 months, you will have access for 4 or 6 months, but not for 2 whole years!

VIDEO over FACE

✅ Video format allows us to add engaging and helpful animations that further help to understand complex concepts as well as showcase the demos

❌ You get a presentation by lecturer, either seeing the face (which doesn't add value to your understanding) or they have static slides, which are boring and your mind gets distracted

SUPPORT

✅ Ensuring that students get the support they need, is actually a high priority for us. We have several experienced engineers, who support our students throughout the program through their learning journey. They are from different time zones to make sure students get quick replies. You will be part of a Discord group, where you can ask questions around the clock. You can also see past questions to review and exchange with other students of course.

❌ In live classes you can only ask questions during the live class. And mostly the questions don’t pop up immediately when you hear them, but e.g. only when you actually work in practice with it. So the advantages of being able to ask "live" is not existent.

PRICE

✅ Another big advantage is of course the difference in price. With our education you save $5,000-10,000 and still get a full education that prepares you for a highly-demanded job, which is quite unique and we are proud to be able to provide that! :)

❌ Bootcamp fee is 5-10x higher than ours

INSTRUCTOR

✅ You can check out Nana’s teaching style on Youtube and verify if it is understandable for you. And from feedback from 1000s of students and comments on Youtube, we know that Nana has a unique teaching style that fills knowledge gaps. She explains every detail and concept behind the tools . Understanding the why’s and the concepts behind the tools is what makes you feel confident of your newly acquired skills.

❌ On the other hand, you don’t know what instructor you will get, whether they can teach the complex topics to the students in an easy and understandable way. Whether they teach in a boring way, whether they use complex terms that you don't understand.

The bootcamp is a self-paced program, meaning it consists of online videos (and other materials like PDF files), which you can watch whenever you want.

So the program has no start and end date or duration you need to finish.

Duration depends on several factors

How long it takes for you to finish depends on several factors, like your background/experience, do you work full-time or part-time on the bootcamp, how intensely you work along the demo projects.

Our estimation for someone, who works part-time on it and has the necessary pre-requisite knowledge listed, is 4 months.

However, you will have access to all the videos for 2 years, if you want to look something up or freshen up your knowledge later.

Generally if something is unclear or you have problems with the course, we will try to support you immediately to answer all your questions. We are also happy to hear your feedback or criticism immediately, so we can fix it for you.

However, if you are still unsatisfied with your purchase, you can request a refund within the first 30 days. Check out our exact refund policy here: https://www.techworld-with-nana.com/terms-bootcamp

We are always improving the bootcamp based also or especially on student's feedback, so we would like to know what we can do better.
