Indianapolis Cybersecurity Bootcamp — Hands-On, Free for Those Who Qualify

Looking for a cybersecurity bootcamp in Indianapolis? HTA offers hands-on, beginner-friendly cybersecurity training in a real lab — free for those who qualify — plus a rare next step most bootcamps can't offer: a U.S. DOL registered cybersecurity apprenticeship.

A bootcamp that leads somewhere real

Hands-on labs, not passive video — you learn by doing
Beginner to job-ready: no degree or experience needed
Security+ aligned skills employers hire for
A bridge into a paid, registered apprenticeship
Founder-led, nonprofit, Indianapolis-based since 2018

With Eleven Fifty Academy no longer running its Indianapolis cybersecurity bootcamp, HTA is the local, hands-on, nonprofit option — and the only one that pairs the bootcamp experience with a federally registered apprenticeship.

How to qualify

Free for those who qualify — here's how.

HTA is a nonprofit. For students who qualify, training is funded through grants, scholarships and Indiana's workforce programs — so you can focus on learning, not tuition.

Workforce Ready Grant

Indiana's Next Level Jobs Workforce Ready Grant can cover tuition-free training in high-demand fields like IT for eligible Hoosiers. We'll help you check eligibility.

Registered apprenticeship

Our U.S. Department of Labor registered apprenticeships (since 2018) let you earn while you learn — paid on-the-job training plus classroom.

Scholarships & benefits

Scholarships, grants and GI Bill® / VA benefits help cover costs for those who qualify. Ask us what you're eligible for.
