INDIANAPOLIS - August 4, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Unfilled cybersecurity jobs are skyrocketing as organizations across industries elevate their data privacy, security, and cybercrime prevention efforts. Kenzie Academy will be training a new pipeline of cyber professionals to address this workforce shortage and close the skills gap with its newly launched 9-month Certificate in Cybersecurity program. This cybersecurity program prepares learners from any background for a tech career that introduces them to opportunities for a fulfilling job, high salary, and professional growth.
"This is an exciting time for Kenzie Academy as we expand our program offerings to break into the cybersecurity space. Cybersecurity is a critical industry and our goal is to supply organizations with skilled, diverse, and job-ready workers. Our partnership with EC-Council also allows us to deliver a top-tier, widely recognized curriculum." - Missi Perez, Interim VP of Academics
The International Council of E-commerce (EC-Council) is known as the world's largest technical cybersecurity certification body and offers over 20 accredited cybersecurity certifications. Kenzie learners have the unique opportunity to:
- Complete the cybersecurity program and earn a Cybersecurity Certificate from Kenzie Academy in less than a year
- Receive vouchers to take the EC-Council certification exams for Network Defense Essentials, Ethical Hacking Essentials, and Digital Forensics Essentials
- Earn these three certifications upon passing the exams to become highly credentialed
The program also includes EC-Council iLabs, courses focused on career-readiness to prepare for the job search, Subject Matter Expert sessions, and summative research projects for real-world learning.
