“…Professional certifications provide supplemental validation of formal education or specialized training and encourage lifelong learning for further professional development, including continuing education and training maintenance (Wang & D'Cruze, 2019b). Professional certifications for hybridized KSAs can also give potential employees confidence, self-efficacy, and a sense of inclusion (Brooks et al, 2011).…”

Fortune Magazine (2019) recently touted technology as reshaping the future, resulting in the hybridization of more than 250 occupations. Within the accounting profession, Robert Half (2018) emphasizes the need for business and accounting acumen coupled with technology expertise, communication skills, leadership abilities, customer service orientation, and preparation for specialized (hybrid) roles epitomized by the integration of dual expertise (e.g., information technology and auditing). Such a change provides accounting educators the opportunity to create new programs aimed both at developing students and at upskilling existing workers for dynamic careers by offering certification boot camps that will give participants a competitive edge in the hybridization of the accounting profession. In this paper, we propose the integration of a Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) designation boot camp into accounting program offerings and report the results of a semester-long case study introducing the CISA designation to undergraduate students. We discuss boot camp best practices and the boot camp implementation process, and we offer recommendations for accounting programs that utilize boot camps as part of a strategy to address lifelong learning programs for developing hybridized skills within the accounting profession.

“…3) (ISC) 2 CBK: The (ISC) 2 Common Body of Knowledge (CBK) is arguably the most impactful BOK on the multimillion dollar and significantly influential cybersecurity training, skills and certification industry, given that one of the most in-demand global cybersecurity certifications is entirely based on this BOK [3], [21], [22]. However, we found no evidence in the BOK, nor the specific domains of learning, that seeks to address language challenges to the EAL cybersecurity student.…”

Cybersecurity pedagogical approaches do not address the challenges faced by students with English as an additional language (EAL). Despite EAL students representing a critical labour force for this important global and multidisciplinary industry, there lacks both research and cohesive solutions to address this issue. Via student interviews and semi-thematic analysis, this paper demonstrates that EAL cybersecurity students express challenges with aspects of cybersecurity content. Secondly, it is shown that predominant cybersecurity education bodies of knowledge and frameworks do not address challenges faced by EAL cybersecurity students.

Although a large and fast-growing workforce for qualified cybersecurity professionals exists, developing a cybersecurity certification framework has to overcome many challenges. Towards this end, an extended review of the cybersecurity certifications offered currently on the market from 9 major issuing companies is conducted. Moreover, the guidelines for the definition of a cybersecurity certification framework as they are provided from the recent Cyber Security Act and framework of ENISA, NIST and ISO/IEC 17024 are covered. A vast comparison among the presented cybersecurity certifications is given, based not only on the cybersecurity domain covered but also the required level of candidate's experience. A proposed certification program has been also analyzed based on the learning pathways and the knowledge areas described in FORESIGHT.
