The NICE Framework (National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education Cybersecurity Workforce Framework) provides a common reference for defining and communicating cybersecurity work. It helps professionals identify the training and certifications that align with their current role or future career path.
The NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework outlines the roles, skills, and knowledge essential across the field. It serves as a guide to match the right training and certifications to your current or future role. They can be directly mapped to AntiSyphon courses and ACET certifications.
We can take any of the classes below and convert them to a tailored training plan for your team.
