FOCUs On CYBer seCUritY
HCC has always asked for and received valuable input from
community experts to develop and update curricula, and
our April focus group on cyber security was no exception
as representatives from 14 different organizations came to
campus to engage in a lively and productive discussion.
Their insightful recommendations along with HCC's
other key partnerships and resources, including the U.S.
Department of Labor Cyber Pathways Grant, membership
in the Academic Cyber Curriculum Alliance (DACCA), and
participation in The National Center of Digital Forensics
Academic Excellence (CDFAE) program, are instrumental
as the college continues to help increase the number of
qualified professionals available to law enforcement,
counterintelligence, national defense, and legal communities.
