Want to break into cybersecurity without a technical background? The Bletchley Fellowship, in partnership with Flatiron School, is offering a unique 19-month paid Cyber Engineering Apprenticeship that combines immersive training with real-world work experience. Designed for career changers, this fully remote program allows you to learn software engineering and cybersecurity while earning enough through a paid apprenticeship to fully cover your tuition—making the effective cost of the program $0.
The program begins with four months of full-time software engineering training before transitioning into a paid 20-hour-per-week apprenticeship alongside experienced engineers, while you continue studying cybersecurity for another 20 hours each week. Throughout the fellowship, you'll gain hands-on experience working on production systems, participate in agile development, code reviews, and team collaboration, and graduate with two Flatiron School certifications in Software Engineering and Cybersecurity, along with a portfolio of real-world projects that demonstrate your skills to future employers.
This opportunity is ideal for career changers with at least two years of work experience—whether you've worked in education, hospitality, retail, customer service, the military, or another field—and are ready to commit to building a long-term career in technology. No previous coding experience is required, only a willingness to learn and pass an aptitude assessment and behavioral interview. If you're looking for a structured, paid pathway into one of the fastest-growing industries while gaining valuable experience from day one, this apprenticeship is well worth exploring.
