What's Next for GRC Academy and Jacob Hill

I have an incredible announcement to share! 👀

Before that though, let me share some of my history with you.

Back in 2016, I started a side-business called TEKFused LLC focused on web design/hosting.

Fast forward to 2022, I launched GRC Academy, and since then I’ve released 3 CMMC courses, released 50+ podcast episodes, and partnered with some amazing companies.

Earlier this year, life threw me a curveball when I was laid off from my full-time role.

Thanks to the incredible support of my AMAZING LinkedIn network, I had new opportunities on the table immediately!

Within a week, I accepted a role with Summit 7 as Director of Cybersecurity - a company I’ve admired since 2019.

And here’s the part I NEVER expected:

👉 Summit 7 has officially acquired GRC Academy!! 🎉🥳🎉

And guess what?!? I've already completely updated and rerecorded my CMMC training!! And it's even better than it was before!!

GRC Academy students with active enrollments to my CMMC training will receive access to the new training on Summit 7's platform. It will take some time to get this all together, so keep your eyes open for that announcement.

I'll be contributing to Summit 7's YouTube channel in the future as well, so subscribe if you haven't already: https://youtube.com/@summit7

I will still be reselling PECB training at my TEKFused LLC website! If you need to get certified in ISO 27001/42001 (and more), be sure to keep me on your list: https://tekfused.com/courses/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=s2-11&utm_campaign=s7-acquisition-announcement

On a personal note, I’m very thankful that this transition allows me to spend way more time with my family - while continuing my mission of educating the Defense Industrial Base!

I learned so much during this chapter of my life. I want to thank all of you for your support - it truly made this possible.
