NCWIT Academic Alliance member students are encouraged to apply to the SANS CyberTalent Immersion Academy for Women. This is a great opportunity for RMU students since we are now members of NCWIT.

The SANS Institute is presenting the SANS CyberTalent Immersion Academy for Women to encourage women to enter the cybersecurity industry. Academy participants receive intensive, accelerated training and certifications to quickly and effectively launch careers in cybersecurity.

The SANS Institute is offering free SANS courses for female junior and senior college students and recent graduates; this is worth over $20,000.

Students must take the qualifying exam by October 30th to be considered for the Academy. Contact womensacademy@sans.org to get a unique link to the exam or if you have any questions about the program.
