Nooooooope. You get to be the expert.
Really, though, I’m not a pen tester or an exploit author. I’m a program manager, an engineering team manager for a gang of fuzzing engineers, and a bug bounty program head. I’m actually pretty shitty at coding by myself. My knowledge is generally pretty high level and meta, not down in the weeds with specific techniques. I know how stuff goes together, in general, but I couldn’t do a lot of this without a lot of time to get up to speed on specifics.
Most courseware is focused on how to be a penetration tester with an emphasis on web technologies. There is plenty of work there but it doesn’t make you a “highly-paid cyber security expert.” Besides, the only people that use “cyber” are governments, their attendant entities, and the military.
