    • IDCYSE8000
    • 30 Hours
    • Prerequisites required

    This self-study course includes the CFR eLearning, test prep guide, labs, and exam voucher.

  • Cyber Secure Coder Certification Training Course (Self-Paced)

    • IDCYSE8010
    • 18 Hours
    • Open to beginners

    This self-study course includes the Cyber Secure Coder eLearning and exam voucher. The stakes for software security are very high, and yet many development teams deal with software security only after the code has been developed and the software is being prepared for delivery. As with any aspect of software quality, to ensure successful implementation, security and privacy issues should be managed throughout the entire software development lifecycle. This course presents an approach for dealing with security and privacy throughout the entire software development lifecycle. You will learn about vulnerabilities that undermine security, and how to identify and remediate them in your own projects. You will learn general strategies for dealing with security defects and misconfiguration, how to design software to deal with the human element in security, and how to incorporate security into all phases of development. In this course, you will employ best practices in software development to develop secure software.

  • Alan Sanchez Jun 17, 2025

    Overall, my experience in the Python Programming class was genuinely great. I enjoyed the hands-on learning environment, and having Art as my instructor made a huge difference. The class was definitely tough at times, but in the best way, it challenged me to really dig into the material and helped reinforce what I learned. I’m walking away with a much stronger understanding of Python and a lot more confidence in my abilities.

  • Nyasia W. Jun 5, 2025

    Brian is very thorough and extremely helpful. He has a very engaging style of teaching.

  • Malik Roberts Mar 10, 2025

    If you are serious about your learning, whether you have or don't have experience, Noble Desktop is the place for you. Between my instructor's 40+ years of teaching experience and the quality personnel, I know I'm in good hands. I actually believe I can be a Software Engineer now.

  • Nicholas D. Mar 8, 2025

    Immersive class with no problems.

  • Johnny Z. Mar 7, 2025

    Great professor! He made it interesting to learn.

  • Michelle Cruz Mar 4, 2025

    I really like Noble Desktop and will recommend it to my veteran friends when they are looking to learn about software programming and engineering. I am learning exponentially more than just trying to study on my own.

  • Clayton Wariner Dec 13, 2022

    Very good foundational class with good information for those just starting out in Python. Getting the class set up and scheduled was very smooth and the instructor was excellent.

  • Jason Vandervoort Sr Data Analyst Dec 13, 2022

    Throughout my career, I've had several technical training sessions before this one. Boris was the most knowledgeable and clear instructor I've ever come across. I'll be requesting additional Python training in 2023 and would love to work with him again.

  • Daniel Ahenkora Apr 19, 2022

    The instructors at Noble Desktop were kind, helpful, informative, and had patience with every student taking the course.

  • Allen Gotkin Nov 23, 2021

    I had a great time with the Python course, and it was a breeze to learn.

  • Jordan Fogel Sep 15, 2021

    Terrific curriculum and content, and a world-class instructor and hands-on practice. Couldn't have asked for a better overall experience. 10 stars out of 5!

  • Michael M. Sep 14, 2021

    I thought the content for the class provided good coverage of the foundations of Python. Art is a good instructor. I like his approach of teaching a concept, then giving us an exercise to work through.

  • Jesse Daniels Aug 18, 2021

    I am learning what I wanted and in the right atmosphere with the right instructor. Art understands Python and knows how to drive its juice into our souls. He is patient and tolerant with us and has so many ways to make each format sink in.

  • Nesta Parchment Feb 26, 2021

    At first I was a skeptic of Noble Desktop due to the the low cost compared to those overly priced bootcamps. However, once Instructor Menninga started teaching, all my doubts went out the window. Besides the instructor(s), the registrar/administrative assistant is amazing! I overslept during the first day of class and nearly missed out - surprisingly the administrative team contacted me via phone, not once but TWICE to ensure I attended class. I was so amazed how much they put into their students. So much so, that I would love to attend again someday. Thank you Amit! Don't think twice about joining, just do it. Best Python bootcamp out there.
