I’ve seen innovation in action at Lockheed Martin Cyber University.
Nearly four years ago, Lockheed Martin Information Systems & Global
Solutions (IS&GS) recognized the need to build a cyber security workforce
with the right skills and motivation to meet our Corporation’s evolving needs and
to offer advanced solutions for our customers.
As a result, the Lockheed Martin Cyber University was launched in April
2009. I’m proud to say it is a world-class provider of cyber education,
training and certification for security professionals. The university provides
hands-on tactical and strategic security training for security executives and network
and security professionals. In addition to traditional instructor-led training,
the university provides online courses such as CISSP, Security+ and Certified
Ethical Hacker. Since the university’s inception, over 1,600 employees have
been trained and we’re aligning critical skills and jobs.
