VetsinTech recently released Military Spouse Employment in the Technology Sector, a policy blueprint developed in collaboration with the RAND. This document draws on insights from a VetsinTech roundtable, where policymakers, industry leaders, and military spouse advocates addressed barriers and opportunities for military spouses in tech careers. The blueprint outlines key recommendations, including portable credentialing, remote work policies, and support for military spouse entrepreneurs. These steps aim to create flexible, high-quality career paths tailored to the unique challenges faced by military spouses, such as frequent relocations and employment gaps. We thank contributors Katherine Webster, Ikram Mansori, Marwa AlFakhri, PhD, Lucy Shearer, and others who helped shape this effort. 📰Press Release: https://lnkd.in/eny2tyTT cc: Johanna Tillman, Craig Newmark, Laura Schmiegel, Melissa A.

At VetsinTech, we’re proud to announce a major milestone: over 2,000 military veterans and military spouses trained in cybersecurity through the support of Craig Newmark Philanthropies. This achievement not only strengthens our nation's digital security workforce but also creates meaningful pathways for veterans and military spouses to thrive in tech careers. Since 2018, Craig Newmark's visionary support has been instrumental in launching and sustaining programs like the Craig Newmark Cybersecurity Institute for Veterans, which delivers industry-leading training to address critical workforce shortages. In 2023 alone, the institute ran 14 cohorts, equipping over 500 veterans and military spouses with sought-after certifications such as Security+, Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud Practitioner, and Palo Alto Networks technologies. This initiative exemplifies Craig’s commitment to Cyber Civil Defense and his vision for a stronger, more secure digital future. We thank Craig Newmark for his support and commitment to empowering and training veterans and military spouses in Cybersecurity. We look forward to continuing this impactful partnership. 📰Press Release: https://lnkd.in/eg_NQvsW Katherine Webster, Ikram Mansori, Oliver Muoto, Johanna Tillman, Craig Newmark... #Vetsintech #VIT #Veterans #Cybersecurity #CraigNewmark #Security+ #Training
