CAE CoP-CD “Working (non-traditional) and Minority Students” Initiative

This new CoP-CD initiative will include a yearly workshop and a list of resources to be shared on the CoP-CD page on embracing and supporting working (non-traditional) students (full-time and part-time), minority students, women, single parents, first-generation students, military, veterans, and students with learning and other special needs who are enrolled in cybersecurity programs. The goal is to develop a working list of resources and tools that faculty can use to help coach and guide students who need a little extra help.
