West Midlands Cyber

Routes into cyber through practical programmes, networks and employer engagement.
Connect with emerging talent, placement programmes and education partners.
Align learning, projects and placements with real regional demand.
We support wider participation in cyber, including women, neurodiverse talent, underrepresented communities and people entering through non-traditional routes. Inclusion partners include Psyber Inc., IAWM and CREME.
Real work with regional employers, not shadowing.
Earn while you learn, with employers who need the skills.
First roles in businesses that will keep growing.
The opportunities board is open to regional employers and is being populated ahead of launch. Placements, apprenticeships, graduate roles and vacancies from Cluster members will be listed here.
