"AGENT Preps Teachers in Cyber Education"

During the week of June 5-9, the University of North Georgia (UNG) hosted the third annual Advancing GenCyber Education for North Georgia Teachers (AGENT) Initiative to help 25 middle and high school teachers and administrators learn how to teach cybersecurity. They will also have the opportunity to receive additional training throughout the remainder of the year. The AGENT Initiative was funded by a National Security Agency (NSA) grant of more than $144,000. It is a professional development program for teachers and administrators interested in enhancing computer science instructional practices and cybersecurity. According to CyberSeek, more than 663,000 cyber jobs are available in the US, including more than 20,000 in Georgia.
