More than 600 underserved students will be trained for ISACA’s 新兴技术认证 credential
美国伊利诺斯州绍姆堡-从今年2月开始, high school students at the Centro Educacional Assistencial Profissionalizante (CEAP) in Brazil will expand their tech 教育 and gain career-advancing skills through ISACA’s 新兴技术认证 (CET) certification courses, in partnership with the Caterpillar Foundation.
在三年的时间里, CET will complement CEAP students’ existing curriculum and prepare them for a range of tech careers. CEAP currently provides technology courses for its students but will upgrade and improve them with ISACA’s certification coursework—which includes ISACA’s 云基础, 区块链基础, Internet of Things (IoT) Fundamentals and 人工智能 (AI) Fundamentals certificates. 这将使高中生, many of whom are from underserved populations, to gain a mastery in areas such as network computing and programming and learn how to apply IoT and AI not only to IT roles but to professions such as logistics, 市场营销与人力资源.
The initiative aligns with ISACA’s commitment to expanding access to 教育 and credentialing in domains connected to 数字的信任 professions—including cybersecurity, 隐私, 风险 and IT audit and 治理—to prepare the workforce of the future. This includes partnerships with universities and academic institutions worldwide, 以及通过其努力 One In Tech基金会 to provide professional development resources and training to those who are underserved to expand career opportunities. As part of this CEAP program through the Caterpillar Foundation, ISACA will provide CET course materials in Portuguese and Spanish and certify accredited trainers locally to deliver the instruction.
“We are honored to play a role in preparing the next generation of 数字的信任 professionals in Brazil through this initiative with CEAP and the Caterpillar Foundation,Ajay Barot说, ISACA总参谋长. “We know the demand for these careers is increasing, and equipping young people with specialized knowledge and skills can open up many pathways to high-caliber professions that have the potential to transform lives.”
“It is an immense joy for us and for our students to have access to such high-level information. 在过去的几天, we talked to some friends and partners about ISACA’s project, and many were extremely surprised because this content is very rarely taught in schools in Brazil. Many paid and renowned universities 在这里 still do not even address these subjects,Gustavo Yoshiak说, CEAP的机构发展经理. “Providing an experience like this to young people from a shanty town region is a real 教育al innovation.”
The goals of this 教育al program fit with the Caterpillar Foundation’s mission to build thriving communities by investing in the workforce of the 21st century, especially in the areas of digital upskilling and the future of work.
