    I am looking to change careers. Just wondering as a start I want to do online courses in Cyber. This will be over the next few months and plan then to do a night course in September. Just wondering if any good ones?

    'Cyber' is a huge area, the best course is going to depend completely on which part of InfoSec you are interested in. You'll first need to figure out which of defense, offense, forensics, architecture, engineering, auditing, governance, privacy etc. sounds most interesting to you.

    Your first task, before you take any courses, is to learn to listen to people who know about the subject and read what they write.

    It is, as Blowfish has pointed out, a wide field. Trying to learn everything about may be futile but you need a good grounding in the field. Online courses may provide an introduction. I think that there are some courses (certificate and MSc level) available from Irish universities and colleges. With the HSE compromise, it would not be unthinkable to see some of them promoting their own courses in the field.

    Both Cybrary and udemy have both good and bad courses.
    Research them before you purchase. I have bought great courses on both platforms, and I've had negative experiences on both.
