A Message from Dr. Rose Shumba
"Mentorship is ministry—because your career is part of a bigger calling."
I’ve spent 20+ years helping students and career changers step confidently into cybersecurity—even when they doubted they had what it takes.
Too many people start certifications, classes, or even college majors without a clear sense of whether cybersecurity truly fits their strengths, story, or spiritual purpose.
This guide was created to change that.
Whether you’re just exploring or trying to restart after a false start, I want to help you find clarity, direction, and a plan grounded in both faith and strategy.
Once you download the guide, I’ll invite you into our Faith + Tech Career Community—a place where we encourage, uplift, and equip each other through mentorship, prayer, and real-world tools.
Let’s build something bigger than just a career.
Let’s build your calling.
