Tens of thousands of students receive free training to build cyber skills

UK teachers are encouraged to utilize free resources from the government’s Cyber Explorers program to help students develop cyber skills and consider cybersecurity careers. The initiative, which has already registered over 50,000 students from 2,000 schools, aims to address the significant cyber skills gap in the country and foster a talent pipeline for the growing cybersecurity industry. The program provides interactive learning experiences and career-focused sessions with major tech companies.
