The CyberSecurity for vocational education and training (VET) and small and medium enterprises (SMEs) project, carried out by Istanbul Ticaret University jointly with Istanbul Governorship and partners from abroad, is ongoing. The project aims to prepare a basic training curriculum in the field of cyber security and to increase the awareness of SMEs about cyber security.
The CyberSecurity for VET and SMEs project aims to develop training programs and content to increase the cyber security capacities of SMEs by creating vocational education and training modules.
The giant project, which has a budget of 250 thousand Euros, is carried out in partnership with Istanbul Ticaret University, Istanbul Governorship, Media Creativa (Spain), Pragma Engineering (Italy), Meta4 Innovations (Austria) and Mindshift (Portugal). The project is also supported by the National Agency and Erasmus+.
Within the scope of the project, which was launched in January 2023, preliminary studies have been carried out on the development of the contents of the training modules until now. Work on creating the final modules is currently ongoing. After the modules are created, the dissemination activities of the project will continue rapidly with the support of the Istanbul Governorship. The next transnational meeting of the project will be held in Bilbao, Spain, on April 18th, 2024.
Training modules and other details prepared within the scope of the project can be accessed at projectssecurefuture.eu, the website of the project that will be launched soon. The project is expected to be completed by the end of 2024 and its outputs will be shared with the public.
