Australia’s Social Cyber Academy is shaping efforts to see the country join UK and US partners in the International Cybersecurity Education Collaborative (ICEC).
ICEC has just issued its report on a Delegation visit to Australia in March. The ICEC delegates met with senior representatives of education, business and government. ICEC partners with the US federally-funded, National Cybersecurity Training and Education Center (NCyTE).
Delegation host, Professor Glenn Withers, the Director of the Social Cyber Institute and the Social Cyber Academy, said that “the Australian partners involved in the meetings with the UKUS group will now advance joint moves to boost education in cybersecurity”.
According to the ICEC Report: “The discussions highlighted both areas where Australia demonstrates notable strengths, such as the cohesion seen in Canberra and the ecosystem approach to education and employment, and shared challenges, such as the fragmentation inherent in federal systems and the complexities of workforce development and professionalisation.”
ICEC is supported by the UK’s CSE Connect and the National Cybersecurity Training and Education Centre from the US. A copy of the Report is to be found here: https://www.socialcyber.co/education-mobilisation
