Education and Training in Cybersecurity
2019-2024
Problem description
Individual academic and professional programs are already available at many universities and training institutions, but there is a lack of coordination and understanding, what courses and topics should be included in these programs so that they reflect the current trends on the job market.
Research aspect: Existing study programs, courses and training need to be identified. Skill matrix (skill x role mapping) needs to be established. Topics for courses need to be identified and collected to the curricula. New methods of teaching and training, especially the hands-on training activities, need to be developed and tested.
Industrial demand: The demand for cybersecurity experts is extraordinary internationally, both at companies and in the public sector.
Social aspect: By providing top-quality education in security, graduates get high-qualification jobs more easily and employees can reach to higher positions in their respective jobs.

Social aspect: By providing top-quality education in security, graduates get high-qualification jobs more easily and employees can reach to higher positions in their respective jobs.
Final goal: Provide best-practice curricula for both universities and training institutions reflecting skills necessary for a wide spectrum of roles in cybersecurity. Rollout the programs at a substantial number of universities.
Benefits for EU: Better competence in cybersecurity, more secure ICT environment, better protection against external threats, and the more balanced situation on the job market.
Domain (JRC Taxonomy): Cybersecurity education, Cybersecurity exercises, Cybersecurity ranges, Cybersecurity education methodology, Certification Programmes.
Sector (JRC Taxonomy): Government and Public Authorities, Publishing, Internet
Relation to emerging technologies: Cyberranges, Gamification
