Cybersecurity Apprenticeships Help Fill Talent Gaps
Cyber threats are increasing daily, but finding skilled cyber talent is difficult. With the cyber workforce shortage, businesses need to start getting creative to recruit and train cyber workers. “Registered apprenticeships do not have to be bureaucratic nightmares just because they are more structured,” Alanna Hughes, Senior VP of Strategy and Innovation at Per Scholas. “We make it easier on the employer to take advantage of the perks by managing the administrative pieces.”
Bridging the Cybersecurity Skills Gap: Apprenticeships Are the Answer
As the digital economy grows, so do cyber threats. The U.S. faces nearly 460,000 unfilled cybersecurity jobs, leaving companies vulnerable to increasingly sophisticated attacks. This shortage isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a constant crisis. The solution is clear: we need more effective and inclusive training programs, like the cybersecurity apprenticeships offered by Per Scholas.
