The Cybersecurity Career Ambassador Program is on a mission to weave a vibrant tapestry of volunteers - through employers, educators, and more - who stand as beacons, guiding folks to shape a diverse and robust cybersecurity workforce.
Ambassadors, you're the heroes here!
- Spark inspiration, engage hearts, and fill minds with knowledge about the booming demand for cybersecurity talent, the learning avenues open for exploration, and the many career paths waiting to be discovered.
- Break down the cybersecurity career myths by highlighting the assorted learning routes and credentials leading to roles outlined in the NICE Workforce Framework for Cybersecurity.
- Bolster initiatives and resources that craft a highly skilled, diverse workforce, with a special shoutout to programs uplifting women, minorities, veterans, disabled individuals, and other underrepresented groups.
Cybersecurity Career Ambassadors are the heart and soul of our quest to magnify cybersecurity awareness and champion workforce diversity. Whether through schools, local organizations, places of worship, or workplaces, ambassadors can host talks or community events to spread the word.
