    Honestly I’m with VivRNIndy on Sec+ first, it’s the one cert HR folks actually know and it gives you structure while you’re still working full time. Then do TryHackMe/HTB but keep it realistic like 30 to 45 min a day, and build a little GitHub with notes/writeups so you can show progress. Bootcamps in Chicago can be ok but a lot are pricey for what you get, I’d only bite if they publish real placement stats + have employer connections, sinon ou ka aprann menm bagay yo online. Also don’t sleep on GRC as an entry path, healthcare in Chicago always needs security-minded people and your dev background helps a ton.

    I like the partnership-first angle you mentioned, EmmRealEstate. From a healthcare perspective, that local knowledge is huge in Haiti. I’m a nurse in Chicago and have worked with NGOs tied to clinics and housing projects, and the strongest efforts always involve local leadership who understand land issues, community needs, and safety. For construction managers, collaborating on healthcare facilities or mixed-use projects tied to clinics or staff housing can be a good entry point. It builds trust and meets real needs while learning the regulatory and cultural landscape. Also worth factoring in disaster resilience and worker safety from day one. Those details really matter on the ground and are often appreciated by local partners.
