Why Certification?
Substantial education and experience requirements make skills gaps hard to close. Because cyber security jobs require years of training and relevant experience, skills gaps cannot easily be resolved though short-term solutions. Employers and training providers must work together to cultivate a talent pipeline for these critical roles to achieve positive outcomes for organizations.
