Since our last update on June 12, we have continued to engage with QuickStart Learning, the preferred provider for students who wish to continue their cybersecurity education.

We remain committed to advocating for our students following IronCircle’s sudden closure, and we continue to review available information, coordinate with QuickStart, and evaluate student-specific concerns.

SDSU Global Campus is aware of the recent closure of IronCircle, the third-party provider that previously delivered our Cybersecurity Certificate Program. Earlier this year, QuickStart Learning Inc. acquired IronCircle’s assets. We have since learned that IronCircle has ceased operations.

We understand that this situation has created uncertainty for current students and prospective learners. SDSU Global Campus is actively working with QuickStart to better understand the impacts of this transition and to support affected learners.

QuickStart has established a dedicated transition process for students who were enrolled in the program. To learn more about available transition options, please contact the QuickStart team directly at: transition@quickstart.com

We encourage affected students to review any communications they have received from QuickStart regarding the transition process and available options.

Recent communications from IronCircle may have created confusion regarding the status of SDSU Global Campus. We want to clarify that while IronCircle has ceased operations, SDSU Global Campus remains open and fully operational.

We will continue to share updates on this page as additional information becomes available.
