As part of NIST’s charge for National
Cybersecurity Awareness and Education outlined in the Cybersecurity
Enhancement Act of 2014, the National Initiative for Cybersecurity
Education (NICE) energizes and promotes a robust network and an
ecosystem of cybersecurity education, training, and workforce
development. NICE, led by NIST, fulfills this mission by
coordinating with government, academic, and industry partners to
build on existing successful programs, facilitate change and
innovation, and bring leadership and vision to increase the number
of skilled cybersecurity professionals helping to keep our Nation
secure. Further, in support of the NICE Strategic Plan goals and
objectives, the National Cybersecurity Career Awareness Week has
been established to inspire, educate, and engage children through
adults to pursue careers in cybersecurity. The annual week-long
celebration provides for learning about the contributions,
innovations, and opportunities that can be found by exploring
cybersecurity as a field of study or career choice. Information
collected includes basic contact information, such as name, however
the data is referential in nature only. Records will not be
retrieved by a personal identifier, therefore this is not a Privacy
Act System of Records and does not require a SORN or Privacy Act
Statement. The primary goal for this collection is to learn what
kind of events are happening and where.
