In Spring 2023 we introduced a new part-time format that is ideal for participants who work and/or are completing concurrent studies.
Classes are held in the evenings and during weekends.
The goal of the program is to place graduates into high-demand cybersecurity roles once the program ends. If your ongoing studies require several months or more to complete, we recommend you apply to a future cohort.
We run numerous programs each year, so don’t worry if you miss the window for one.
Cyber Connexion incorporates soft skills training to prepare you to enter the workforce. This training includes 1:1 coaching, résumé and cover letter review, interview preparation, LinkedIn coaching and more. We also provide the opportunity to connect with industry professionals and hiring managers through networking events, panel discussions and guest speaker sessions.
For program grads who have actively pursued a career in cybersecurity, the job placement rate is 80%.
Our alumni are currently working in roles at
KPMG,
Mercedes-Benz,
Deloitte,
CertiK,
Arctic Wolf,
the Herjavec Group and
eSentire.
Participants who enroll in the virtual program are required to have a properly configured system to take part.
