Baxter Clewis Training Academy  Reviews 233

Bottom line up front is that Baxter Clewis training academy is extremely resourceful and an exciting Journey to be on. Prior to joining I had my reservations but the more time I took to learn about the training Academy and see evidence for myself in terms of the material, the punctual feedback from the advisers, and the testimonials from others, I couldn't be more satisfied with my choice to move forward with the program. By the way, shout out to Janelle for being such an amazing and down-to-earth advisor.

I want to begin by saying how grateful I am for this opportunity to change my life. The Baxter Clewis program is self-paced and designed to enhance skills focused on PCI DSS, which is more common than most people realize. The program allows access for up to a year. In this course, you get out of the program, whatever you put in. To give you an example, some people have been enrolled for 6 months and haven't got into the TDP portion. I have been in the program for about 3 months and have already completed my first deliverable; this all depends on your life and what you dedicate to this. Overall the program is great, there is a community of like-minded individuals for you to collaborate with as well as advisors to reach out to when your wheels are spinning.

I believe if you have a weak will and you rely on motivation to overcome adversity, this isn't for you; don't waste your time or money. However, if you are confident you will take advantage of your time, take advantage of your resources, ask questions, and not be afraid of failure, it's IMPOSSIBLE to fail. Excuses only sound good to the person that's making them.

I have been around the block a few times. I have been in finance and banking for over 30 years. I have a double Masters degree in administration and healthcare management. Needless to say, after all these years, I found myself in a job that you can get yourself promoted to the unemployment line. No kidding; my company just laid off over 7,000 employees. These people were middle management and earned their positions. With that said, I wanted to find a career in a growing field. A field where I could bring myself and what I learned, find a team and make a difference. I always wanted to get into cyber security or some kind of CS career, but I could never pull the trigger. I was 50 years old, and already had a son when e-mail became available to the public. I did not grow up with tech. I was also making too much money. I never thought I would be able to financially make a jump to something new.
Now, I have been in the program for about 90+ days. I have completed the schooling portion of the program and have never been more exited about my future. I have performed my due diligence on the income, it is real...the jobs are out there to be had.
I will spare you from a novel of sorts, but let me tell you about this school. You start out with one of the easiest and understanding financial introductions in the world of learning. There is no pressure. Only conversation. You have options of how to earn your future and then apply. You may or may not be accepted, but if you are; you are never pressured. Second, you are given a coach of sorts. Regardless of what the actual position name is; they are a coach. My coach was Lelani and she is an angel. Your coaches will never give you false hopes or flowery BS. Your coach will also not put you down. These coaches are uplifting, understanding, and extremely honest. If you are not doing the work, you will be held accountable, but your an adult. You are treated like one. The classes are very good and well presented. There is also a lot of life information and helpful activities that will benefit you in all aspects of your life. You know, the program is so team oriented. A bunch of adults, learning new skills and helping each other get to the finish line. I notice in my classes there are a lot of people like myself. A lot of us did not believe there was a way to break into an excellent career. For some, it might be where they are from, what they look like, how old they are (that's me). Through God's grace, Boyd has helped so many people and he is helping me and I am so appreciative.
Finally and in closing, lets talk money. I received my last Masters degree in 2005. I am still paying on that debt to this day and where and what did it get me? This program has given me more skills than all my degrees combined. Thank you to everyone at Baxster Clewis. Especially my Lelani. I look forward to the TDP and getting to know even more friends. Remember the quote, "there are no strangers here, just friends you have not met yet".

It's extremely hard not to be successful! My Success Coach Lelani Williams was helpful, kind and patient with me along the way. I must say I took a leap of faith and wasn't the most confident but during my journey that has dramatically changed, especially since making it to the Talent Development Program.

The program is excellently designed, well-structured, and offers ample support with the flexibility for individual pacing. The community, consisting of both students and faculty, is characterized by respect and helpfulness, fostering a genuine teamwork environment. This program presents numerous benefits and has the potential to be a transformative force in your career if you remain committed. One suggestion for enhancement would be to incorporate practical, real-time projects after each module, providing active practice and hands-on experience before entering the workforce. In summary, the program is highly commendable.

I'll open up by expressing my gratitude for the support and encouragement I've received thus far. My experience has been up and down, the greatest gift this progress has and will give me is introducing me to myself. I've incorrectly assumed some things about by myself that are indeed not true. I've gone as far as to go into a denial period about who I was...I incorrectly denied that I had some lazy, procrastinator type characteristics. Upon my discovery, I noted that several months had passed by and I was still stagnant. I've since taken steps to course correct and the things I learned about myself terrifies me. I thought of that other version of myself scares me. I don't want to be that person anymore. As for the coursework, the platform, the delivery...it's fantastic. I'll conclude that human factors are what I've found to be the biggest factor in success or stagnation.

Sometimes we want to do things but having no one to be accountable to can hinder the progress we seek yet at Baxter Clewis, I can’t afford to give up because I have a success coach that will not give up on me and the materials are really easy to understand when you make time to study. I don’t regret being on this journey

I have been in the Baxter Clewis Training Academy since June 2023. So far it's been going well for me. Right now I am at the Senior level. Learning how to create a winning LinkedIn account and prepare for a 6 figure job interview. They teach us so many good stuff and make us believe in ourselves and have an authority mind set. I so much believe I am closer to a 6 figure job now than I ever was thanks to the Baxter Clewis Training Academy. When I get the job I will come back to this platform to do another review. If you are looking for where to have training on your own schedule in Cybersecurity, this is the right place.

I just passed my Sophomore Exam after just 3 weeks in starting the Baxter Clewis Training Academy. Changing your mind set and throwing away all your doubts setting your mind to succuss. I came into the training with absolutely no IT experience. I had over 30 years of experience as a graphic designer decoration manager for screenprint and embroidery. I wanted to get into PCI DSS because I had my identity stolen a few years ago and what a nightmare that was. I knew there had to be a way to help people in protecting their credit card data. If you are looking to get into Cybersecurity PCI DSS, I highly recommend giving Baxter Clewis Training Academy a shot. The career mentors Rock!! (Big Shout out to mine, Miss Janelle). The Customer Service team answered all my questions before hand. They are so supportive and helpful in supplying you with lots of resources. I can't wait to finish out my journey and see what happens next.

If you want to improve your life/lifestyle through cyber security, this is for you. If you have prior IT knowledge/experience, this is for you. If you have no prior IT knowledge/experience, this is for you. All that matters is that you apply yourself to working hard because the team at Baxter Clewis Academy has taken care of everything else. They have flexible payment plans to accommodate you and your needs. It's nothing like any IT boot camps you may have seen or heard about. This is something unique, and it's worth taking the leap of faith for. The only thing you have left to do is ask yourself, Am I ready to commit to a better life through cybersecurity". If the answer is yes, look no further, and reach out to the Baxter Clewis team.

I am currently a part of the Baxter Clewis Training Academy and so far I am very pleased with the level of knowledge, engagement and support I've received from this training course and its staff. I am a third year tech major who is trying to break into the cybersecurity field. Make no mistakes about it, Boyd is giving you real industry knowledge and insight into a very niche part of the industry that can be very lucrative to anyone wanting job security and a six-figure income. Knowing how to properly implement the PCI DSS framework into a company's overall security infrastructure is a very valuable skill. I feel as though Boyd is preparing his students for real world experiences. I think the Baxter Clewis Training Academy can easily be compared to any Cybersecurity Bootcamp certification offered by any college and it's only a fraction of the cost! And the industry information we're getting can easily be verified as fact by simply researching the industry sources that are clearly being named within the program itself like the PCI Council! I'm grateful to Boyd and his team and am satisfied with my experience!

Currently, I'm in the Senior level within the CASP (Cybersecurity Assurance Specialist Program) at Baxter Clewis Training Academy. I do not have a tech background and I wanted to career pivot into IT. I could learn on my own but I realized it would take me a long time using the trial/error approach. Time is the only resource I could never get back so I had to make sure I invested it wisely.

Several months ago, I saw a youtube ad from Boyd Clewis. I was skeptical initially, as I should be. I did my due diligence by researching the Baxter Clewis Training Academy. I took a risk and joined the program. Today, I can say that I am happy with my decision! Boyd is thorough in his approach of teaching the PCI DSS framework. For me, the best part that I like about the program is Boyd's business approach to teaching and imparting knowledge. He provides tips on how to connect the PCI DSS concept to helping organizations be successful (increase revenues, cost savings). He trains you to think like a business person as you use technology tools and processes to achieve your company goals. Also, there is a Success Advisor assigned to you along with support groups to help you succeed in the program.

If you desire to break into tech, Baxter Clewis Training Academy can help. If money is an issue, there are payment plans to assist you. I must say that the program is intense (for those without IT background) but it's achievable.

I recently attended Baxter Clewis training academy and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Boyd is incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the entire process. The leaders made sure that every participant understood the complex concepts of PCI DSS compliance and security.

The training was well-structured, providing a comprehensive overview of the requirements and best practices for maintaining PCI DSS compliance. The instructors took the time to answer all of our questions and provided real-life examples to help us fully grasp the concepts.

I also appreciated the resources provided by the academy. They offered insightful study materials, practical exercises, and even practice exams to ensure our success in achieving and maintaining PCI DSS compliance.

What truly set this academy apart was the dedication and support from the leaders. They were passionate about helping us succeed and were always available to provide guidance and assistance even after the training was completed. Their expertise and willingness to go the extra mile made a significant difference in my understanding and implementation of PCI DSS requirements.

Overall, I highly recommend Baxter Clewis training academy. If you're looking for a comprehensive and supportive learning experience, this is definitely the place to go. The leaders are exceptional at what they do, and their commitment to your success is unparalleled.

I’m in the program now. About 60-70% and it has been a God send. Truly I feel this is what I’ve been waiting for. My advisor Cori has been a blessing to me and there is so much information and people to learn from. I’m super excited about when I finish and land my 6 figure job!

The staff is very friendly and the program is very user friendly! Bring an open mind and be ready to commit a small portion of your time throughout the day to learn something new to help you better your situation within a few months!

The Baxter Clewis Training Academy is nothing less than a non regrettable decision I could've made in the cybersecurity field. This program understands and helps masters its students in the basis of PCI compliance of protocols and procedures that will ultimately help you achieve a 6-figure earning salary.

Since taking this program, I have not only enhanced my knowledge of PCI DSS, but also my skills on public speaking, study group habits, being an initiator, time constraints, and my favorite, mental confidence. Baxter Clewis has helped me and many other students learn how to guarantee success with positive self assurance.

The demand for job roles for compliance in cybersecurity is very high in today's society everywhere, and this program helps its students graduate within 4-6 months of joining. I'm currently in my junior stage and ready to take my final. I can't wait to tell more once I graduate and land my first job.

All positive reviews are 100% fake. I done deep digging and found many people have been scammed by this flashy enticing program.
I wad contacted by one of their team member on facebook, to hook me in, and when i asked him why are they giving sweet promises and flashy advert at the beginning, but in the end the person does not get whats promised by boyd clewis, he hasnt responded since. :')

Ive read multiple reviews that people have been scammed out of $15-20K and they put you in an interest game as well. The person ends up paying extortion amount, no 6 figure or any job, and a course that consists of PDF files (lol!!!). Anyone can youtube and Udemy PCI DSS, OSCP and GRC for free / dirt cheap and succeed. Boyd will charge you 20K though his "game".

The reason boyd clewis is so rich because his 'training program' has scammed MANY guillable people.

All positive reviews are fake and staged by his team members to fool the new comers!

I am a Baxter Clewis student with no previous Cyber Security experience. This Academy has lifted my mindset already, to a more authoritative, entrepreneurship mindset, so much so, that I ended up surprising even myself. They have a phenomenal, non-bootcamp style of teaching, with a hands-on customized approach that allows you to set your pace and feel comfortable while learning. They provide a wide range of resources and assist you through the full process, and they teach you how to add value to a business instead of just completing tasks, for a better wellbeing. I can't wait to complete my courses soon, and I recommend this Academy for anyone wanting to accelerate their career path for more lucrative pay and job security. Achieving this goal within a more efficient timeframe is everything, and that's what Baxter Clewis Training Academy can provide.

Warning! This is a lengthy review; but it’s well needed.
I first learned about the Baxter Clewis Academy from a YouTube video. In the video, Boyd briefly went over how simple of a concept that being a PCI assessor is. Immediately after finishing that video, I watched another and went down the rabbit hole until I was eventually convinced that learning this skill was something that I wanted to do; so I signed up for a consultation. Even after signing up for the consultation, I went out and did some research and my findings were conflicting; but something told me to continue on with the process. Jacob was the consultant that was assigned to me and he couldn’t have done a better job of answering all of my questions and giving me time to come to a decision. Fast forward 3 months and I can honestly say that this is probably one of the best decisions that I could’ve ever made! The program is designed to learn at your own pace. The content is rich, yet, explained in a way that a beginner can understand and absorb. The community is extremely helpful and willing to answer any questions that you may have. There are even people who’ve graduated and have landed their six figure job; that are still apart of the program as alumni and they help to provide a greater insight to what the overall process is like. There are video replays of study groups dating back to 2021, to help you better understand concepts of the PCI DSS. Lastly, I probably have the best advisor in the program; Ms. Cori. She’s constantly checking to see if I need anything or have any questions.
In conclusion, if you’re on the fence about becoming a part of the Baxter Clewis Academy; I’d say take this advice from me, SUPER SKEPTIC, and do it.

The ease of the website and the relatability of the Teachers helped this process. They worked with me in the season I was in, and I didn't feel any pressure or rushed.
