Cyber Skills for Canadians is a micro credentialed program delivered through the University of Ottawa PDI that provides the most advanced cyber security program in Canada. If there is a “secret sauce,” it’s our personal approach. Whether it is our signature cyber security advanced curriculum or the fact that students can take our program anywhere in Canada, there really isn’t any mystery to what we do – it just takes a lot of hard work. You can gain the skills you require for a long stable career in cyber security in as little as 8 months.
There are three core areas for professional skill development and career preparation through the Cyber Skills for Canadians/University of Ottawa PDI collaboration:
1. The Secure Software Development program includes understanding and skill fluency in three programming languages plus HTML – presented with a security-first emphasis. Students learn the most common programming languages and operating systems in network security today and will be ready to secure their software development career upon completion. Candidates write the DevSecOps and Python certification exams.
