The National Cybersecurity Teaching Academy (NCTA) is an initiative designed to bolster cybersecurity education across the United States. It aims to address the critical need for qualified cybersecurity teachers by enhancing the quality of cybersecurity teaching and learning. Funded by a grant from the CAE Community, the NCTA focuses on developing comprehensive cybersecurity education content and providing professional development for educators to prepare them for teaching in this rapidly evolving field. The project emphasizes collaboration between educational institutions and cybersecurity organizations to create a modern educational ecosystem that meets the demands of both students and the cybersecurity industry. This initiative is part of a broader effort to modernize cybersecurity education and workforce development to address urgent needs in cybersecurity and support the growth of a skilled cybersecurity workforce.
