Dear Students and Recent Graduates,
Have you heard of the Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence Talent Initiative (CTI)? CTI is a unique public-private partnership run by the Partnership for Public Service that aims to recruit, train and retain a world-class digital workforce. CTI is a selective 2-year opportunity for recent graduates of cybersecurity and AI-related fields to gain vital public sector work experience, network, build leadership ability, and enhance technical skills. Fellows selected for the program are placed at a federal agency with cybersecurity needs (including your favorite agency, CISA!).
The best news? CTI is now accepting applications until November 8!
Applicant Requirements:
-
Must be a current cyber student set to graduate between now and August 2025 OR a recent cyber graduate who graduated in or after January 2023. Completion of a cyber-related undergraduate or graduate degree (among others: computer science, artificial intelligence, engineering, information security, data science, machine learning, or mathematics) with an expected graduation date between January 2023 and August 2025.
- U.S. citizenship at the time of application submission.
- Superior academic achievement.
APPLY TODAY or learn more about the program!
What happens after you apply?
The Partnership for Public Service reviews and assesses candidates based on their qualifications and application package, then selects candidates to be semifinalists and finalists. Finalists are entered into a pool that federal agencies can select candidates from. Federal agencies will review applications and ultimately make offers during the spring and summer of 2025. Most finalists will start their positions in the summer and fall of 2025.
If you have any questions about the program, there is a helpful FAQ on their website, but you can also reach out directly to info@cybertalentinitiative.org. You can also reach out to CISA Student Programs with CISA-specific questions about the program, but please note that CISA just participates in the program and does not administer it or assess the candidates after initial application.
Best Regards,
