Cyberinclusive
Cybereco has started an initiative to increase the visibility of women and other communities in the field of cyber security. It has two components: attraction and awareness of talent from these groups. It includes a mentoring programme and a round table aimed at women, as well as activities aimed at other communities organised in partnership with other organisations working with the targeted communities.
Mentorship Program for Women in Cyber
Launched at the Cyberconference 2022, Cybereco’s Women in Cyber Mentorship Program is an opportunity for women working in the field of cybersecurity in Quebec to develop their professional network, increase their knowledge and hone their leadership skills. The mentorship program aims to support and promote women in cybersecurity and to empower the next generation of cybersecurity professionals.
This program is open to female students (CEGEP, University) and early career professionals in cybersecurity and related fields who wish to take advantage of this opportunity to be mentored by an experienced professional in order to learn more about the field and increase their professional network.
Launch of the program – October 27th, 2022 at Deloitte
