The 2020 National Cybersecurity Career Awareness Week takes place November 9-14. There is a clear need for a strong workforce of cybersecurity professionals. The NCMF is excited to help encourage students to pursue a career in cyber by offering a wide variety of #CyberChats for students, parents, and teachers via our Nepris online classroom. Our #CyberChats are presented by cyber professionals and experts. From new cyber professionals to the original Queens of Code, students can learn from people with the knowledge, experience, and passion needed to help them plan for and navigate a career in cyber.
Please visit the link below to learn about the various sessions available. To attend a live session, you will simply need a free Nepris account. Recordings of the sessions will become available at a later date. Note that we also have #CyberChats scheduled post-career awareness week.
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) website also has an extensive breakdown of excellent Career Week options. Please visit the link below to learn more.
