I haven't heard anything good from those cyber bootcamps, their teaching tends to be subpar and you can't reasonably learn much in the time allotted.

Remember most grads with Cyber or computing degrees are struggling to land junior roles, with only a trainee course you'd be at a further disadvantage.

You need to be honest with yourself, do you actually enjoy Cyber Security? Or are you just doing it for money? Cyber Sec is a VERY different field to regular IT, having a vague interest in computers does not mean you'll be good at cyber.

Try reading some books on ethical hacking or make a free account on TryHackMe.com and do some of the free modules. If you find yourself interested in cyber, then try and self learn a few techniques and compete in a few CTFs. After you have some skills you can apply to some cyber apprenticeships.
