None of the top cyber security talent I've worked with went to school for it, and I have been underwhelmed by what I see coming from college programs. These kinds of credentials themselves are not a signal of quality to me.

i hear this online a lot but never from the companies and hiring managers that hired our cybersec students for the last decade.

keep in mind, this is not a 6-month "intro to cybersec" or bootcamp-style program.
