The North East Independent School
District in San Antonio, Texas (NEISD) has opened the
Institute of CyberSecurity and Innovation (iCSI), which offers cyber learning opportunities to students in Texas' tenth largest school district.
iCSI trains students on how to detect and identify hacks
and cyberattacks and respond to threats. Students from all seven North East ISD high schools have access to networking and cybersecurity
classes. Students work through a four-year pathway where they have the opportunity to earn
professional certifications in the areas of information technology. The curriculum provides students with
hands-on learning opportunities and real-world exercises related to the professional skills employers are
looking for.
