AI-generated summary, report an errorThis bill would create a program at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) that partners with community colleges, technical schools, and other two-year schools to train students for cyber jobs. Students in the program would receive full tuition scholarships covering fees, travel, and other costs, would complete at least four hands-on skills exercises, and would be placed in internships with government or critical infrastructure organizations. In return, students who complete the program would have to work two years in a cyber role for a federal, state, local, Tribal, or territorial government, or repay the scholarship, with exceptions for military service and hardship. The bill sets enrollment goals starting at 250 students and growing to 1,000 per year, and requires a plan to reach 10,000 students per year within ten years.
