Program details
Overview
The Cybersecurity Post-Diploma Certificate builds on a completed diploma or degree in information technology, computer engineering, software development, or a related field, preparing graduates to advance into cybersecurity roles. Over two terms, students study operating systems, computer forensics, network protocols, and secure computing practices, alongside communication and problem-solving skills applied to information-security work. Coursework covers identifying and responding to security threats, securing networks and systems, and applying forensic techniques to investigate incidents. The program is delivered by Bow Valley College's School of Creative Industries and Digital Technology and is intended for applicants who already hold relevant post-secondary education and want to specialize in cybersecurity rather than starting from a general diploma. Students are required to have a personal laptop meeting the program's technical specifications for coursework.
