Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers to help you choose the learning path that matches your current knowledge and goals.
Which course should I start with?
If you are completely new to cybersecurity, start with the free Cyber Hygiene Fundamentals course. It gives you a simple introduction before you move into more technical subjects.
Do I need cybersecurity experience?
No. Back2Skills includes beginner-friendly courses designed for learners starting from zero. More advanced programs clearly identify when stronger foundations are recommended.
How long does it take to learn cybersecurity?
There is no single timeline. It depends on your current knowledge, study pace, and goals. Back2Skills is structured so you can build knowledge progressively rather than trying to learn everything at once.
Should I start with CEH® AI v13 directly?
If you already have cybersecurity foundations and want a certification-focused learning path, the CEH® AI v13 program may be appropriate.
If you are still building your technical foundations, the Ethical Hacker 3-Course Bundle is usually a better step before moving into CEH®-aligned study.
What is the best path for ethical hacking?
A beginner-friendly path is to first understand cybersecurity fundamentals, then build knowledge in ethical hacking, Linux, and penetration testing before moving into more advanced practice or certification-focused learning.
This follows the Back2Skills approach: Understand First. Practice Next.
Do I need a degree to start cybersecurity?
No. You do not need a degree to begin learning cybersecurity. You can start by building technical foundations and progress according to your goals, experience, and preferred career path.
Do I need to learn Linux?
Linux is especially valuable if your goal is ethical hacking, penetration testing, or other technical cybersecurity roles.
That is why Linux is included as a core part of the Back2Skills Ethical Hacker learning path.
Which certification path should I choose?
Certification choice depends on your career goal and current skill level. If CEH® is your target, the Back2Skills CEH® AI v13 program provides a structured, CEH®-aligned learning path.
If you are still exploring cybersecurity, build your foundations first before committing to a certification path.
Can I learn on mobile?
Yes. Back2Skills course content can be accessed on mobile devices. For more technical lessons, detailed visual content, and future hands-on practice, a desktop or laptop will generally provide the best learning experience.
