Building Futures was proud to be part of Rhode Island College’s announcement of a new Registered Apprenticeship Program for Information Security Analysts. The program, created in response to the growing number of open positions in cybersecurity and information security – nearly half a million nationwide – will support students pursuing careers in these industries.

Eligible students who have transferred from CCRI to RIC will be placed in paid roles with Citizens, where they will learn on the job while receiving related classroom instruction over the course of a year.

“This program represents exciting momentum for degree-connected Registered Apprenticeship that will enable employers to develop the highly skilled workforce needed in cyber security and open the door to career opportunities for Rhode Islanders,”

Andrew Cortés,
President and CEO

Congratulations to the RIC Cyber Institute, CCRI and Citizens on the launch of this exciting new program, we look forward to the good work to come.
