Cybersecurity is a rewarding, high-demand industry in desperate need of passionate, capable workers. Cybersecurity specialists protect our right to privacy, help corporations stay competitive, and guard our national security. Cybersecurity professionals earn high salaries, enjoy recession-proof job security and have plentiful job options due to a lack of qualified cybersecurity talent to meet the ever-increasing demand. A Franklin Apprenticeship program not only provides a diverse talent pool for companies in need of cybersecurity specialists but also creates an opportunity for individuals within the company to upskill and reskill. Franklin Cybersecurity Apprenticeship graduates possess a solid knowledge of cybersecurity best practices and take on incident response processes and database/remediation scans in a live environment.
