Upright Education Avis 

1. the arrangement was awesome! online classes, assignments and practicals on Tryhackme lab was an awesome experience that made it easy to understand the course.
2. The instructor (Ben) was patient with us and always available to help during class and office hours.

This is really a great program, very well organized with a very knowledgeable staff and instructor. I look forward to the remaining weeks of learning with these great folks!

I took the Cybersecurity bootcamp course and I feel I could have spent my time and money in a better way. I was tempted to put 1 star but that wouldn't be fair to the upstanding and frankly exceptional instructor and TA in my course. What I liked about the course: My instructor and our TA. They both were very well educated with a wealth of experience that they brought to the table in almost every class, our instructor offered tons of support and had a fantastic energy that made overall complicate and convoluted topics easier to approach. He broke down concepts into easy to digest bites and offered a ton of outside the course resources that helped elaborate on what we needed to know to furthure our education. Our TA was very approachable and, even though he seemed overworked, responded very promptly to issues and conflicts, offering a lot of flexibility that for someone like me (who held down a full time job the entire course) made it possible to work within my schedule. They both did an exceptional job and, because of the reasons that follow, actually allowed me to further my understanding of cybersecurity. What I didn't like: If you take nothing else away from this review understand this one thing, the educational materials, assignments, and labs are assigned and created by an administration with little to no understanding of the topics being taught. Had my instructor just stuck to the script and only presented the material he was given I would be hopelessly unequiped to work in this field. It became incredibly obvious that someone was just plugging "make me a presentation about identity access management" into chatgpt and then pushed that AI generated content to the instructors as gospel. The slide decks were either wildly lacking on necessary details or dove incredibly deep into concepts that were not relevant to the entry level jobs intended to be obtained by completing this course. Additionally many of the write ups and in session activities were painfully AI generated content with all the m-dashes and emoji's to confirm it, half the time they were hard to parse out and didn't reflect or expand upon the covered materials in class. It was also a consistent problem that the labs and sims (done though tryhackme) were never play tested, many of them were broken (confirmed via deep research required to complete them) and as a running theme did not elaborate or expand on the covered materials. The schedule of the class also proved to be inefficient, we spent far too much time covering unrelated topics, far too little time studying for the Security+ exam, and the capstones felt like an after thought slapped on at the end to give the class a feel of a college course. I'm sure Upright offers more, better crafted, educational options that may be worth it, but if your considering the cyber security bootcamp I'd recommend really researching alternative options.

My Professor Ben and Luke were extremely helpful in teaching me about cyber security and helped me learn a lot which helped me grew in my position of where I’m at right now.

This was my first real deep dive into AI Automation, and wow, what an experience! The class was exceptionally well structured, and the instructor's expertise truly shone through. He made the material engaging and turned the entire learning journey into something genuinely enriching.

It's a great program, it truly helps you learn about Cyber Security.

My experience was great, Mr. Wes was awesome. The lesson were really helpful.

The AI Prompt Engineering course through Upright Education met my expectations and provided a solid foundation for anyone looking to get started with AI tools. I came to this course looking to formalize my experience in prompting, and it delivered on that while also introducing me to a few new tools and techniques. The course was well-organized, and the instructor did a good job connecting the material to real-world applications. The hands-on projects were useful for reinforcing concepts and gave me a framework I could apply to my own workflows.
The program is particularly well-suited for professionals with limited experience in AI who want a practical introduction to the field. Balancing a full-time role while making time for certificate coursework can be challenging, but the structure of this program made it manageable. The live sessions were engaging, support was responsive, and the resources provided a starting point I continue to build on. For anyone looking to get started with AI prompt engineering, this course offers a reasonable entry point.

This was my first real dive into what AI can do, and the class has been exceptionally well laid out. The instructor knows his stuff, and has been generous with his time outside of class with me.

I recently completed AI Agents and Workflows, and it was one of the most practical AI courses I’ve taken—focused less on hype and more on building real, reliable agent workflows. I came away with a clear framework for turning messy processes into automations, plus concrete techniques like structured outputs, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, and testing for consistency, and I finished with workflows I can keep refining and using at work.

My cohort was one of the biggest and my instructor Ben and TA Luke were still very patient with everyone. They really took the time to make sure we understood a concept. If we had any questions they were both really responsive in our discord channel and office hours were a huge help. I really like how the program was laid out.

Great TAs! The Class was taught at a decent pace. The instructor was very interactive, and efficient. Definitely recommend for anyone who has interest in this field.

Unlike other online course I have taken, having a live instructor at a set time every week, with the ability to interact with and receive feedback has been great. In addition, having discussions about real World usage of AI and assignments that can focus on real World solutions made the course very engaging.

Upright is always pushing the bar and committed to staying up to date on the latest tech and modern day workflow. Regular college are normally behind the work force due to the process of slower syllabus roll out.

It was constructive for me; it helped me to communicate with my teachers and review the study material.

I think Mark did a great job with what was given but the program overall could be structured better. When it comes to the studying for the sec+ more practice exams or time could be given. The power points could use work. A document letting you know what exact skills you should have after the program would be useful as well

The classes were great - I had to step away after week 3 because of personal issues but the instructor was always very positive and made the course enjoyable! I sm going to be taking it again and am super excited to start!

I've been in Upright's Data Analytics Bootcamp Course for 12 weeks and I can honestly say that the instructional staff is amazing. The instructor is thorough, patient, and allows for creativity through hands-on practice of the material. The structure of the course content is exceptional. I'm enjoying my preparation for my capstone project.

The Instructor was absolutely amazing and Knowledgeable. The process as well as all of the staff have been super helpful and nice.

I really like our instructor Khaled. He is very personable and approachable. His classes feel like a friend is helping you learn which I feel makes myself and my classmates more open to speaking up and participating. The team is very supportive in your experience- I have had to pause a bit due to surgery and unexpected complications, and Maxwell Lions has been very understanding and supportive!
