One of the most impactful ways cybersecurity leaders are helping their
staff deal with unrelenting threats, ongoing skills shortages and
growing workforce gaps is through investing in the professional
development of their teams.
According to the ISC2 Cybersecurity Workforce Study, 43% of organizations fund staff attending cybersecurity conferences and events like ISC2 Security Congress. Moreover, data suggests that ongoing education and training help mitigate the impact of organizational skills gaps. 58% of cybersecurity professionals said that the negative impact of worker shortages can be mitigated by filling key skills gaps on their team. This includes areas like cloud security, artificial intelligence and zero trust – all of which will be explored in-depth at ISC2 Security Congress.
Train Your Team at ISC2 Security Congress
ISC2 Security Congress is less than 60 days away; and as always, you can count on dynamic keynote speakers, deep-dive breakout sessions led by cybersecurity experts, top security vendors in the Expo Hall and so much more. If you’re planning to ask your boss to send you to this year’s conference, we have you covered here: Asking the Boss? Four Steps to Securing Your Seat But what if you’re the boss?
Cybersecurity team leaders, security directors, CISOs – register your team to attend Security Congress as a group. Discounted group pricing is available for groups of 5, 10, and 20+ for both All-Access and virtual attendance.
Continue Learning All Year
If your team already includes a CISSP-holder or other ISC2-certified professionals, attending the conference in person will provide an opportunity to earn 20 CPE credits. However, there are multiple sessions in our breakout rooms going on concurrently, which are all recorded and will be available on-demand. All Access Pass holders can earn an additional 65+ CPE credits when viewing on-demand sessions through the end of 2024. All those CPE credits are automatically applied to your ISC2-certified team members’ accounts, reducing the need for one-off approvals of other development requests.
Another way to make the most of your team’s group attendance of the conference is to set up a continued learning schedule through the end of the year. Have your team members each select a breakout session they’d like to discuss as a group. You can extend the learning opportunity by revisiting relevant sessions and discussing them amongst your team. Conversations around individual sessions are an ideal way to enable even deeper learning from the conference agenda.
