Aquia Inc. Launches Cybersecurity Training Program Targeting Underserved Communities and Individuals Transitioning Careers
EntSun News/10963595
The program culminates in a full-time role at the SDVOSB start-up, addressing the talent shortage in the rapidly evolving cybersecurity industry
MILLSBORO, Del. - EntSun -- Aquia Inc., a Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) specializing in cloud and cybersecurity professional services, today announced the launch of Aquia Accelerator, a cybersecurity training program focused on supporting underserved communities and individuals looking to make a career transition into the cybersecurity industry.
Over the past year, postings for cybersecurity jobs have grown more than twice as much as the rest of the labor market, according to data from CyberSeek™ — a joint initiative between the National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education (NICE), CompTIA, and Lightcast. To add to that, (ISC)², an industry-leading cybersecurity education organization, reports over 2 million vacant security roles in their latest (ISC)² Cybersecurity Workforce Study.
Aquia is meeting that demand with its Accelerator train-to-hire program specifically targeting individuals who may not otherwise have the means to access further education or the qualifications necessary to be hired in a cybersecurity capacity.
More on EntSun News
Aquia Accelerator is a 6-month-long program that includes a paid apprenticeship, access to training materials and courseware, and a dedicated mentor. Upon completion of the program, participants are transitioned into a role as an Associate Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Specialist at Aquia.
"Drive, curiosity, and a passion to learn and innovate aren't exclusive to the cybersecurity industry," said Jonathan (Jono) Sosulska, Principal Application Security Architect at Aquia and program lead for Aquia Accelerator. "One of our core values at Aquia is hiring, developing, and retaining the best talent and our Accelerator program supports that commitment. Vital roles across the world rely on solutions-oriented critical thinkers — and often times these people fall through the established systems. We're excited to work towards bridging those gaps by enabling talented people to apply themselves in new and challenging environments."
Aquia Accelerator's first participants are Mackenzie Wartenberger and Ellie Ashton.

The company will welcome its next round of Aquia Accelerator participants in Q2 2023.
