Incident Response (IR): This free training series includes 100-level webinars for a general audience which are cybersecurity topic overviews that provide core guidance and best practices to make your network more resilient to attacks. It also includes 200-level Cyber Range Training courses for government employees and contractors across Federal, State, Local, Tribal, and Territorial government, educational partners, and critical infrastructure partners. These Cyber Range Trainings provide guided step-action labs to learn and practice investigation, remediation and incident response skills.

Federal Cyber Defense Skilling Academy: The Federal Cyber Defense Skilling Academy helps civilian federal employees develop their cyber defense skills through training in the baseline knowledge, skills and abilities of a Cyber Defense Analyst (CDA). Students will have the opportunity to temporarily step away from their current role while they participate in the intense, full-time, three-month accelerated training program. The course provides valuable opportunities to practice new CDA skills in a lab environment. As an added incentive, students will receive CompTIA Security+ training during the last two weeks of the Skilling Academy and a voucher to take the certification exam. Please note, applications for each cohort are due approximately one month before the program begins. Visit our website for details on how to apply.
