“Adding the Google Cybersecurity Certificate to Catalyte’s apprenticeship program opens the floodgates to who has access to the critical field of cybersecurity,” said Matthew Derella, CEO of Catalyte. “Our ability to discover talent from historically excluded groups, combined with the technical rigor of Google’s industry-standard cybersecurity curriculum, means an entirely new generation of talent can now keep our national, economic and personal information secure. We look forward to working with Google and bringing our more equitable talent model, powered by Google’s certificates, to both the public and private sector markets.”
Google’s Cybersecurity Certificate will prepare people for entry-level roles by training them to identify common cyber risks, threats and vulnerabilities, as well as how to mitigate them by protecting networks, devices, people and data from unauthorized access and cyber attacks. Learners will get hands-on experience using Python, Linux and an array of security programs including Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tools. The certificate will also prepare people for the CompTIA Security+ exam, the industry leading certification for cybersecurity roles—they will earn a dual credential if they complete both.
“Global interest in cybersecurity jobs among job seekers has reached an all-time high on Google Search this year, yet businesses continue to report a large cybersecurity skills gap,” said Lisa Gevelber, Founder, Grow with Google. “The data is clear: we must create more pathways for people to enter the cybersecurity field and build a lasting career. Google is combining our industry-leading expertise in cybersecurity with our proven approach to training people for in-demand jobs to help create a solution. The Google Cybersecurity Certificate will help businesses fill cybersecurity roles and enable people to earn an industry-recognized credential that will qualify them for a great job.”
