Butler County Community College is among several postsecondary institutions that will receive federal funding to emphasize cybersecurity education.
BC3 will receive nearly $134,000 a year for three years from the U.S. Department of Defense through the National Defense Education Program.
This money will be used for financial awards, boot camps, professional information-technology certification exams, and industry specialists who will serve as career advisors for networking and cybersecurity students.
BC3 and five other Pennsylvania community colleges are part of a consortium led by Indiana University of Pennsylvania which offers a bachelor’s degree program in computer science-cybersecurity.
