Virtual | May 5-6, 2023

Who Should Attend:

This workshop is intended for community college faculty interested in becoming cybersecurity faculty or faculty wishing to expand their knowledge, earn an industry certification, and strengthen their ability to incorporate new cybersecurity content in their community college curriculum. This workshop is not intended for students or other non-faculty.

About the Workshop: 

Preparing students to successfully enter the information technology and cybersecurity workforce requires that we employ Microsoft's 21st Century Learning Design (CLD) into instructional strategies and practices. This workshop will introduce you to the following 21st century dimensions/skills and how you can use them to enhance student success: collaboration, skilled communication, knowledge construction, self-regulation, real-world problem solving and innovation, and information and communications technology (ICT) for learning. We will also explore how we can use them to enhance our teaching practices and innovation in the classroom and support our student's development of these important skills.

The workshop will be delivered virtually through Zoom and Canvas. Participants will be asked to complete Microsoft Learn modules and will complete the review questions and quizzes after each module. Content covered during this course will prepare you for the Microsoft Certified Educator (MCE) certification exam.

Stipend: 

Eligible community college faculty will receive stipends upon successfully completing the academy and for providing evidence of attempting the certification exam.

To be eligible for the stipends, you must:

  • Currently teach credit courses (full-time or adjunct) at a regionally accredited U.S. community or technical college
  • Attend all sessions and complete the required assignments/projects
  • Certification stipend: Provide evidence that you sat for the certification exam, such as a copy of the certification or report from the exam provider
  • Provide a current W9 tax form to the NCyTE Center
  • Participation stipends will be prioritized to individuals that have not received NCyTE support in the past year

      Facilitators:

      Dr. John Sands, Co-PI of NCyTE and Director of the Center for Systems Security and Information Assurance (CSSIA) and professor at Moraine Valley Community College in Chicago, and his team of expert instructors will lead the workshop.
