With Michigan's first Department of Labor-certified cybersecurity apprenticeship program, STACK Cybersecurity has pioneered an innovative approach to cybersecurity workforce development. This program allows us to recruit, train, and retain non-traditional learners and technicians.
STACK Cybersecurity can accept GI Bill® benefits and Going Pro talent funds for our Cyber Defense Incident Responder apprenticeship.
STACK Cybersecurity is a registered training provider and apprenticeship sponsor. We welcome apprentices from across Michigan, including those employed by other companies, who want to enroll in our program.
The cybersecurity landscape faces an unprecedented challenge: over 700,000 unfilled positions nationwide, with demand far outpacing qualified candidates. This shortfall means only 83% of available cybersecurity jobs are currently filled, underscoring a substantial domestic skills gap.
While most companies struggle to find talent, we've created our own pipeline. Our Cyber Defense Incident Responder Apprenticeship Program transforms motivated individuals into skilled security professionals through a strategic combination of hands-on experience, dedicated mentorship, and industry-recognized certifications.
Recognizing the talent shortage, nearly half (45%) of surveyed U.S. companies plan to remove Bachelor's degree requirements from cybersecurity job postings. This shift aims to broaden the talent pool by focusing on practical skills over formal education credentials.
STACK Cybersecurity apprentice graduates are issued a certificate from the DoL. Through the Registered Apprenticeship College Consortium, graduates of Registered Apprenticeship programs can have their apprenticeship experience evaluated for college credit. Registered Apprenticeship graduates can earn up to 60 college credits based on their apprenticeship experience, which is equivalent to an Associate's degree in terms of credit hours.
