Career change & baby on the way

tl;dr 25 years old, married 3+ years, baby on way and made redundant at career-type job. Going for worker retraining at local community college. Any advice?
Hi /adv/, like the tl;dr says I'm at a crossroads for my life.
My wife and I have been married for 3 years and together for 6. We recently found out we're expecting our first. At 25 this seems like a good time, however I recently lost my management position and all the benefits that went with it. Instead of taking unemployment I took a part time job at night. Knowing that this isn't a career I went to the local community college and found out that I'm eligible for paid worker retraining. They have a Cybersecurity 2 year course I would be able to take for basically free. Knowing that is a good field now and in the near future I plan on taking that course.
What should I expect from a Cybersecurity course? What about being a new father working part time and going to college full time? I am nervous but it's exciting to be growing.
Pic unrelated, I'm in WA though.
