This past fall, we announced the launch of our new IT & Cybersecurity Portfolio, coming out of the gates with our IT & Cybersecurity 老虎机游戏amentals Workshop. Since then, we’ve been busy behind the scenes, and we’re excited to continue the growth of our IT & Cybersecurity Portfolio with the addition of more information technology and cybersecurity training programs.
In our digitally charged, AI-driven world, cybersecurity and IT roles are more critical than ever. But finding skilled talent to fill these positions remains a challenge. With a global shortage of nearly four million cybersecurity professionals and the costs of data breaches hitting record highs in 2024, businesses are scrambling to find skilled talent and secure their systems.
Enter—our new IT Bootcamp and cybersecurity reskilling and upskilling paths.
We’re stepping up to meet this urgent need by launching new IT and cybersecurity training in partnership with CompTIA, a globally recognized leader in IT certifications. Designed for individuals and enterprises alike, these programs aim to upskill and reskill talent to address IT and cybersecurity skills gaps while empowering companies to build more resilient workforces.
Why upskilling is the key to closing the gaps
The demand for cybersecurity and IT professionals continues to soar. Traditional hiring pipelines fall short, leaving businesses across industries vulnerable to threats and overburdened with hiring costs. That’s where we come in, as noted by our CEO Daniele Grassi:
We’re at a critical moment for cybersecurity and IT. Businesses can’t rely solely on traditional talent pools. They need to look at nontraditional talent sources and invest in upskilling and reskilling current employees to stay ahead.
By equipping employees with the tools and certifications they need, companies can reduce hiring costs, strengthen internal security, and foster a culture of innovation and learning.
