Abstract

There is a growing need for a minimum skill set within Cybersecurity Education to ensure graduates are able to meet the job requirements. The ACM CCECC (Committee for Computing Education in Community Colleges) has led creation of a set of guidelines for pre-bachelor's degree cybersecurity programs, called Cyber2yr2020. The Cyber2yr2020 guidelines underwent two rounds of public review, including a draft presentation at ITiCSE'19[1]. This poster presents the final curriculum guidelines, provides perspectives on the use, and highlights cybersecurity programs already aligned with the guidelines.
