Computer Security Training for Monroe County Teachers
Over the last three years, East Stroudsburg University received $490,000 from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to implement a computer security program with Northampton Community College, the Monroe Career and Technical Institute, and local high schools. This program, dubbed 2 + 2 + 2, will help enhance the Computer Security Workforce by educating students in security issues at the high school, community college, and university levels. Part of this grant includes training for the high school and community college teachers who will implement the curriculum. In this time, we have trained approximately 50 high school and community college instructors in information assurance as part of this project.

While the Center’s goals for education are covered with our current and future degree offerings (see the Education Page), we also offer training opportunities for computer science and computer security professionals.
- ESU has sponsored the I-Assure Conference: a 4-day event covering a spectrum of computer security and information assurance issues.
- ESU has hosted CISSP and NSA IAM Training - for computer security professionals interested in these certifications.
- ESU now offers colloquia and workshops on computer security issues. These programs will usually cover one security topic over a shorter period of time than an entire conference.
The conferences, colloquia, and workshops are intended for CIO’s, Chief Technologists, Senior Scientists, Managers with IA responsibilities, and advanced computer science students.
As with our education programs, the goals of the training programs are strongly aligned with the standards set forth by the Committee on National Security Systems.
