CyberForward Academy high school program offers both school credit and real-world work experience in cyber security to students.
CyberForward Academy has had the privilege to partner with Coastline Regional Occupation Program (ROP) and the CEO Leadership Alliance of Orange County (CLA-OC) to build a unique employer delivered cyber security summer program for students in participating Orange County public high schools.
The summer program uses a multi-phase model that aligns foundational learning in cyber security, and work-based learning in specific cyber security job roles and projects, with performance of real-world project tasks with CLA-OC member companies.
CyberForward Academy takes another crucial step in developing world-class talent at scale.
CyberForward Academy, a partner-enabled professional development program that first identifies and then rapidly develops effective job-ready cyber security professionals, has recently appointed Lynn Stewart as its Director of CyberForward Services.
As a seasoned leader in workforce program development, Stewart’s experience in directing professional development programs will help shape and support CyberForward Academy’s innovative approach and continued growth throughout 2021 and beyond.
