What are Industry Partners?

CyberFirst Schools and Colleges are recognised by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) as leaders in computing and cyber education. In Wales, they’re also partnered with a forward-thinking CyberFirst Industry Partner tech company who help bring the subject to life.

As a CyberFirst Industry Partner, you’ll help deliver hands-on enrichment, introduce learners to role models, and show them what a career in cyber looks like.
