The demand for inforamtion security skills have far outpaced the supply. The stories and surveys indicate a growing problem with shortages of trained professionals. The problem isn’t being addressed adequately by any entity. This discussion will propose that we the information security community must bridge the gap by training our own reinforcements.The vocational education system, such as community and technical colleges, are a great location to build a better platform for training the skills needed in our industry. We cannot sit by and wait for the government or academia to fill the employee void. Make your job and life better by building the system to train someone else to be on call for a change.An open discussion facilitated by a security guy turned academic about what we can do to help ourselves.
