The NICE Community Coordinating Council’s Apprenticeships in Cybersecurity Community of Interest has released a map of cybersecurity apprenticeships in the United States.
Programs listed in the NICE Cybersecurity Apprenticeship Program Finder may be registered with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Apprenticeship, State-level registrations, or may not yet be registered.
Some programs may include youth apprenticeships and pre-apprenticeship training programs. All programs include cybersecurity work role training and development.
“We are excited about the launch of the NICE Cybersecurity Apprenticeship Program Finder. The program finder will be a conduit and single source of information about apprenticeships for programs, companies, and individuals. There isn’t anything currently available like this for the industry and will make finding a program quick and easy for those seeking opportunities. ” said Tony Bryan, Executive Director, CyberUp and Co-Chair, NICE Apprenticeships in Cybersecurity Community of Interest.
The NICE Cybersecurity Apprenticeship Program Finder is a tool to help locate cybersecurity apprenticeship programs throughout the United States. Apprenticeships provide learners with access to high quality career pathways aligned to the needs of employers.
For cybersecurity, where there is a shortage of job-ready employees, apprenticeships can help provide a predictable pipeline of skilled cybersecurity talent. Participants in apprenticeship programs receive paid work experience and work-based learning, classroom instruction, mentoring, and a nationally- or state-recognized credential upon completion of the program.
Programs listed in this finder may be registered with the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Apprenticeship, State-level registrations, or may not yet be registered. Some programs may include youth apprenticeships and pre-apprenticeship training programs. The cybersecurity apprenticeship programs may include virtual training schemes, allowing participation from other locations.
