Hello everyone and welcome to my personal site. While its still new, I am now actively working on content now that I have the framework down. This is certainly a work in progress, and I am now entering what I would call the beta testing stage. There are certainly things that are going to change throughout the site, but the essential technology is in place. So please note anything you find that isn't quite right and let me know. You can either message me on facebook or email me at justin.rockwood@gmail.com! Thanks guys!

Useful Links
The National Society of Leadership and Success
I've been a member of NSLS since I was inducted in 2008 while I was a student at Sinclair Community College. Now a member of the chapter at Western Governors University, I am continuing my leadership journey with the NSLS advanced and executive leadership courses alone with a few credit courses offered by the organization. If you are a current student and are interested in being inducted yourself, let me know and I will figure out how to get you a code!
WGU CyberSecurity Club
This club is another community that I am involved in, the treasurer in fact! While you need to be a student of WGU to be a member, it is worth checking out! There are going to be some changes to the organization this year to empower students to be more involved! Check back, I may create a page just to describe everything I'm doing!
Western Governors University
A university in Utah offering bachelor's degree as well as master's degrees in IT, Business, nursing as well as teaching. While you need to do well in an online format, they're compentency based. So if you know the material, you can spend less time on that section instead of bored! The link will save you the application fee as it is my referral code.
Information Systems Audit and Control Association
I have this link here as a motivation to myself. The organization administers the Certified Information Security Auditor (CISA) certification, a certification I am pursuing. I am also a student member!
Graduation
I'm planning on attending the virtual graduation ceremony on September 23rd of this year. I'll be creating my video for the event in a few weeks once I recieve my gradutation regalia. Feel free to watch and celebrate with me!
What I'm Currently Working on
While I am waiting for my next Master's to begin in August, I am expanding my certifications. I am currently pursuing EC Council's CCT, and I have recieved a scholarship to help in that achievement.
