UCCS joins partnership to boost cyber defense in US

The U.S. Army Reserve has formed a partnership with eight U.S. colleges and more than 20 defense contractors to train and provide continuing education for reservists who will defend against cyberattacks and hold full-time jobs with the contractors, according the Colorado Springs Gazette.

More than 50 representatives from the schools, military and industry are meeting at the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs through Wednesday to hammer out details on how the education program will work between UCCS and the seven other colleges, all of which are near Army units that focus on cyber defense.
