Company details

  1. Training School

Written by the company

NexGenT (DBA NGT Academy) was founded by two Air Force veterans who have trained thousands of engineers for the military. They have combined the military-style training philosophy of job readiness with decades of network engineering and cyber security experience working at Cisco Systems, Arista Networks, and Dimension Data into an immersive program to get people into cyber security or networking careers faster and more effectively than ever! NGT Academy is on a mission to help 1 million people get tech jobs by 2030. There will be 3 million unfilled cyber security jobs in the market by 2021. We want to close that skills gap by providing people an affordable education that gets them job-ready for a career in cyber security. NGT Academy believes that students shouldn’t be left with outrageous debt from degrees that don’t teach the required skills to succeed in the workplace. We believe we have the best program to equip anyone to be cyber security specialists in the fastest way possible. We believe in having a strong foundation in network architecture before students go into our cyber security training. Once the student masters the fundamentals in networking, they are better prepared to step into our cyber security training program along with real-world projects.

Transformative Experience, The Best Decision for My IT Career

NGT Academy has truly exceeded my expectations in every way. From day one, the instructors were knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely invested in helping every student succeed. The curriculum is hands-on and practical, not just theory. I went from being unsure about networking concepts to confidently configuring routers, switches, and understanding real-world infrastructure setups.

If you’re serious about changing your career or leveling up your technical skills, NGT Academy is absolutely worth it. I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

FSNA-Basic Review

I loved every second of this course, I really enjoy Networking and piecing together concepts I had learned about over the years was such a great experience. If you want to jump head first into Networking, in a format that helps you learn quickly, this is the course for you

I really enjoy my experience with NGT…

I really enjoy my experience with NGT Academy so far. The hands-on learning approach is exactly how I learn best—it keeps me engaged and helps me retain the material much better than just reading or watching videos. The labs and practical exercises make everything feel real and applicable to the field.

The only downside is that some of the course material feels a bit outdated and could use an update to reflect current industry standards and technologies. Other than that, it’s been a great experience overall, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who learns best through doing rather than just theory.

Chrystel is truly a gem at NGT Academy

Chrystel is truly a gem at NGT Academy! From the very beginning, she’s been an incredible source of motivation and support. She doesn’t just guide you, she genuinely pushes you to reach your full potential and reminds you why you started in the first place. Her energy is contagious, and her belief in your success makes you want to work even harder.

Every conversation with her leaves you feeling more confident, focused, and inspired to keep going. She really cares about your growth, not just as a student but as a professional. I’m so grateful to have had her in my corner. She’s one of those rare people who makes a lasting impact on your career and mindset.

Thank you, Chrystel, for always believing in me and motivating me to keep chasing success!

My exNGT Academy Makes Learning Straightforward for Veteransperience has been great because…

My experience has been great because NGT Academy makes the process straightforward for veterans like me by working directly with VA educational funding. That support removes a huge barrier and makes pursuing training realistic. The way the information is packaged is another strength, everything so far has been clear, structured, and easy to follow, which is especially important when starting out in networking and cybersecurity. I feel like this program provides a strong 101 foundation and a practical entry point into the field.

Essential Training for the Future

The team at NGT have been nothing short of encouraging and supportive throughout the FSNA Basic. I highly appreciate the frequent check-ins from Robin, giving me updates on my progress and motivating me to keep going! Jacob's presentations are quite informative with the lab portions being enjoyable to complete.
I thoroughly enjoyed this portion and am looking forward to the next trainings.
To think a random scroll on Instagram is leading me towards a career I've dreamed of having (and will soon be in).
