Everyone knows cyber is the hot field to be in right now. You're there. But now that you're here, how can you get the training you need to progress?

Step into the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies (NICCS). Developed by the Department of Homeland Security, NICCS aims to be a single online resource for cybersecurity education and career information. As part of that effort, NICCS houses a Cybersecurity Education and Training Catalog that allows users to find training they need to advance their careers. The catalog allows users to search for training or certifications by a variety of means, including keyword search, training provider and proficiency level.

Later this year, the catalog will contain industry training that will make it a more robust and helpful resource. If you're interested in learning more about the catalog, please contact the NICCS Supervisory Office at niccs@hq.dhs.gov

In the meantime, we invite you to explore NICCS and the catalog at www.niccs.us-cert.gov.
