Cyber Skills is a highly focused, collaborative project that addresses skill shortages in the Cybersecurity sector. Cyber Skills works with key industry partners to address their specific skills needs through flexible modes of delivery. This specialised education and training is designed with our Industry partners in order to find the most efficient way of up-skilling in targeted cyber security areas which can then be scaled up to reach 100’s or 1000’s of learners. This addresses national and regional skills shortages in a really fast changing technological environment and can be scaled regionally, nationally and even internationally.
Cyber Skills is coordinated across four different higher education institutes in Ireland. Lead by the Munster Technological University in close collaboration with Technological University Dublin & University of Limerick.
This project has been awarded a significant amount of funding of €8.1 Million from the Human Capital initiative programme from the Higher Authority.
