CYBERSECURITY PROGRAMS

 


 

The New Westminster School of Cybersecurity is an innovative institution that provides executive education programs utilizing world-class curriculum and learning platforms that allow executives, busy professionals and qualified postgraduate students to learn and upgrade their acumen in cybersecurity and intelligence management. Executive students will encounter both rigorous cutting-edge curricula and professors and distinguished speakers well experienced in their respective profession.

 

There are Governors and Fellows of New Westminster College that are subject matter experts in cybersecurity and intelligence that are currently serving and previously served in professional careers that are responsible for leading and managing the cybersecurity and intelligence apparatus for their respective government, agency or corporation. These internal and external subject matter experts participate as distinguished speakers and faculty for the intensive executive seminars and academic programs offered by the New Westminster School of Cybersecurity.

 

The distinctive world-class curricula of our intensive executive education seminars and programs provide unique opportunities for government and corporate leaders, and executives from all professional disciplines to advance their technical knowledge and upgrade their cybersecurity and intelligence management skills and currency in the global marketplace.

 

Three postgraduate executive-level education programs are offered in an executive seminar format through the New Westminster School of Cybersecurity, including the Executive Cyber Intelligence Program, the Senior Cyberspace Security Program, and the Advanced Cybersecurity Program.

 

 

The Executive Cyber Intelligence Program is an advanced postgraduate course of study designed for senior-level professional leaders. It provides a rich in-depth understanding of the complex and growing arena of the cyber environment to mid-to-senior level executives. This course of study will prepare each individual with the requisite skills to fully understand the technical aspects and effectively function in managing a cybersecurity program that maximizes the safety of its hardware and software from unwanted intrusions and attacks.

 

One unique feature of the Executive Cyber Intelligence Program is the opportunity for the executive students to have direct interface with security companies, data management firms, and experts in the field of cyber security that are currently involved in working critical cyber issues and having access to their tactics, techniques and procedures. In a world where most everything is dependent in some fashion on cyber and information technologies, being behind means never catching up. This program is designed for the individual to get ahead and stay ahead.

 

This rigorous postgraduate course of instruction cannot and does not pretend to present a single panacea. It does, however, bring together a confluence of technical, economic, legal, ethical, political, diplomatic and strategic leadership solutions that can complement each other to help achieve cybersecurity.

 

The Executive Cyber Intelligence Program consists of eight executive courses and 27 sequential learning modules presented in an intensive executive seminar format.
