The public is invited to provide input by January 13, 2020, for consideration in the update.

Comments received by the deadline will be incorporated to the extent practicable. The resulting draft revision to the NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework (NICE Framework), once completed, also will be provided to the public for further review and comment.
