G Mark Hardy interviews Debbie Gordon on her inspiring journey and vision for training and educating in the cyber workforce. Debbie reveals her passion for shaping the future of cybersecurity training and what inspired her vision.

3 Main Reasons Why Cyber Security Training is Important:

1. Addressing the Skills Gap: With a significant number of unfilled cybersecurity positions, enhanced training programs can help bridge the skills gap by equipping more professionals with the necessary skills and knowledge.

2. Real-World Experience: Traditional training often falls short in providing practical experience.

   By incorporating hands-on simulations and real-world scenarios, training can help employees develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills that are essential for responding to cyber incidents.

3. Reducing Turnover and Burnout: Better training can lead to increased job satisfaction and confidence among cybersecurity professionals, reducing turnover rates. When employees feel equipped to handle their responsibilities, they are less likely to experience burnout.
