A new diversity pilot program by Cyber.org is designed to encourage high-school students to study cybersecurity at historically black colleges and universities. Infosec workforce and economic development organization Cyber.org this week officially announced the launch of a new diversity-minded pilot program designed to expose K-12 students to cybersecurity as a career option and connect them with historically black colleges and universities (HBCU) that offer cyber degrees. This âtalent feeder programâ has named Caddo Parish Public Schools in northwestern Louisiana as its first participating education district. The grant will enable two of the districtâs schools, Huntington High School and Southwood High School, to stand up computer lab environments and bring in a veteran cyber educator to train the faculty on how to teach the curriculum to their pupils. The students will later receive further guidance from nearby HBCU Grambling State University, the first university in the state to create a cybersecurity undergraduate degree.
