"Not Your Ideal Candidate": Human-Centered Cybersecurity Boot Camps for Transitioning Professionals

Wednesday, March 27, 2024, 4:30 PM - 5:20 PM

FREE Cybersecurity Bootcamp programs are prevalent right now and are sure to gain even greater momentum and increased budgets with the advent of AI, quantum computing, and Cloud Management. As a tenured educator that has now participated in four boot camps, I am often asked what the most comprehensive human-centered boot camp would entail. If you want to know practical initiatives that you can implement to maximize the boot camp you host so that a well-balanced and supremely-prepared novice is released into the cyber industry or simply want to find a boot camp to support, this workshop is for you! Programs that will help your potential students develop a functional cybersecurity framework will be introduced along with a synopsis of standard resources and critical guidance for the success of your boot camp participants. Get ready to design a boot camp that will reshape how "not-so-ideal candidates" can be supported and marketed!
