Failure to launch - Why Canada is failing to grow cyber talent and what can be done to address it
A must for all educators, students, employers and government employees involved in funding cybersecurity educational programs in Canada. A deep look into why Canada’s cyber talent pipeline is broken and why career pathways are nowhere to be found. From exploring Canada’s educational programs, a multitude of certification requirements, mind boggling employer requirements and lack of collaboration across the country.
We dig deep, uncover taboo topics, and push the limits of what Canada must do to succeed moving forward. Cybersecurity students, practitioners, employers and educators would do well to attend to better understand what must be done to attain success.
