Try Signal Leaders Network or Army Signal Cyber Defenders.

The current students go through rigorous SANs courses that have live instruction for a week followed by extensive study for a week and a GIAC proctored test. Currently there are three mandatory ones to pass: the GCCC, GCIH, and GCED with and optional GCIA. For more on those you can visit SAN website. <br /><br />They also study Powershell, Kali and security onion. All the classes require you to have self discipline. As for having an IT background, it does help but there is a lot to learn.
