cyber security technical professional apprenticeship
Level 6 - cyber security technical professional
A Cyber Security Technical Professional operates in business or technology/ engineering functions across various sectors of the economy, including critical national infrastructure such as energy, transport, water and finance. They work in both public and private sectors and in organisations of all sizes.
They will normally operate with a considerable degree of autonomy and lead teams that research, analyse, model, assess and manage cyber security risks. They design, develop, justify, manage and operate secure solutions and detect and respond to incidents, all while adhering to applicable laws, regulations, standards and ethics.
How will apprentices learn? For the most part learning is delivered one day a week and is taught in hybrid teaching rooms which facilitate online access to the programme.
Apprentices will also be expected to attend block week workshops at Blackpool and The Fylde College’s University Centre. These are pre-set in line with the delivery of the course which need to be accommodated and organised with the employer.
