Candidates – CyberUp

Apprenticeships are key to expand opportunity and to fix our talent shortage.

College is not always an option for someone starting their career journey, but can be an option after completion of our program.
Our Registered Apprenticeship makes this career path accessible to people who have immense potential but otherwise may not be able to break into cybersecurity.

We have three tracks for candidates to start their cybersecurity journey:
Pre-Apprenticeship Program is geared towards people early in their careers who need a little more help to develop their workforce readiness skills. We provide some IT Fundamental and NIST Framework knowledge.
Level 1 is someone who has some career experience. They typically are career changers with a 4-year degree in a non-related field.
Level 2 is someone with related IT job experience, education, and/or training.

Apprentices start off at minimum earning $15/hour with gradual wage increases throughout the program.
Companies tend to value the opportunity to train someone in their particular systems and approaches without any prior biases.
