“Changing careers 180 degrees is stressful and difficult, especially if you transition from an office-based job to one that requires more technical/physical abilities. Working as an accountant never made me happy, and I was always more interested in the IT/Networking/Security side of things. I built my computer and repaired a variety of gadgets until I decided it was time for a change. I looked on the internet for some CCTV/Intruder Alarm classes, and Cube Training was one of the first that came up. I enquired for more information, and after reading student reviews, I decided to go ahead. It is one of the best decisions I have ever made.
