Purpose
This project seeks to support the design, development, and initial delivery of a comprehensive cybersecurity curriculum, specifically role-based education and specialist tracks. These education tracks will equip women and men in the region with the skills and knowledge needed to fill open cybersecurity positions in the newly inaugurated Cybersecurity Centre of Excellence (CCoE) and help governments and organizations address cybersecurity threats. In addition, this project will help to fund scholarships and bursaries for enrolment in these courses, specifically the Cybersecure Catalyst’s Certifications for Leadership in Cybersecurity (CLIC) course, which provides two globally recognized industry certifications in cybersecurity, and for participation in a Women in Cybersecurity Leadership course. Finally, this funding will also be used to support the hiring of a local staff/consultants (a gender expert and a program manager), and the sustainability of the CCoE in Malaysia, through train-the-trainer programming for the CCoE staff related to both curriculum delivery and student success best-practices.
