CyberFirst and Sheffield Hallam University have partnered to host an exciting Cyber Career Pathways event for schools and colleges across Yorkshire and the Humber.
This hands-on cyber security and digital forensics event is designed for GCSE students aged 14–16 and will give them the opportunity to explore the rapidly growing world of cyber security.
Throughout the day, students will take part in interactive cyber security and digital forensic workshops, hear talks from cyber security specialists, and learn about the career opportunities and pathways available in these fields. They will also gain insights from regional employers about the cyber security skills needed across a range of industries in Yorkshire and the Humber.
The workshops have been designed and delivered by second-year Cyber Security and Cyber Security with Forensics students at Sheffield Hallam University. This provides visiting students with a valuable opportunity to speak directly with current university students about studying cyber security, university life, and potential career pathways.
