Skills-aligned Training
Through a collaborative effort, EduTech and CyberVigilant
stakeholders engage in structured discussions to align
CyberVigilant’s workforce needs with EduTech’s course
development strategy. These discussions include identifying
learning opportunities not already offered in CyberVigilant’s
training curriculum, assessing the availability of CyberVigilant
employees to participate as subject matter experts, and ensuring
alignment with industry best practices. Together, they map key
skills—such as advanced threat detection using machine learning
tools like CrowdStrike and Darktrace—to specific course modules,
ensuring that learners gain hands-on experience with
technologies used in the field.
In addition, EduTech follows best practices for adult learners
when determining course modality. Factors such as working
professionals’ schedules, the complexity of skill acquisition,
and the need for real-time collaboration guide the decision
between synchronous online, asynchronous online, or in-person
instruction. For example, analyzing and interpreting security
events may be best taught through asynchronous case studies,
while documenting findings and escalating critical issues may
require live role-play exercises in a synchronous or in-person
setting.
