Bridging the community college cybersecurity classroom and workplace with the CyberSim LabCC
This program is tentative and subject to change.
Most postsecondary cybersecurity education focuses on technical knowledge and skills without commensurate attention to vital non-technical skills. In this position paper, we argue that cybersecurity education must integrate teaching and practicing of non-technical competencies alongside technical knowledge and skills to ensure that both technical and non-technical skills transfer to cybersecurity workplaces. We identify specific learning outcomes that meet these criteria and suggest research-based pedagogical approaches to support learning and transfer. We present a cybersecurity lab designed to address these learning outcomes through experiential learning, roleplay, collaborative learning, technical simulation and metacognitive engagement. The CyberSim Lab serves as a curricular bridge between the classroom and the workplace.
