Vince Lombardi
I'm approaching the end of my time as a student. Four years ago, I was laid off from a great job as a desktop support technician. Four years ago, I decided to convert my career into an area I had a passion for. I'm nearing the end.
Yesterday, I got notification that the first section of my capstone project at WGU had passed. It was a business proposal for the deployment of Suricata. I think it took me three to four weeks to write. Next step on the road to graduation is the Capstone, which is basically a rewrite of the proposal, stating what was proposed and what actually happened when the "project" was done and completed. I hoping for just one or two weeks to completion for this.
I have been asked a few times if I recommend WGU, and I always answer, "That depends". It depends on your will to succeed. It depends on your ability to be alone. It depends on your ability to be self-motivated. If you do not have all three, I do not see you being able to succeed, without intervention, at WGU.
