Local Training

After attending the Summer Institute, T3-CIDERS participants are expected to offer at least one introductory CI training at their respective local institutions. This training may take various formats, such as the following:

  • A hands-on workshop
  • A webinar
  • One-on-one or small group CI mentoring for research (example targets: research group members, student interns / research assistants)
  • Inclusion of CI training materials into coursework and/or lab activities
  • Creation of a new coursework based on CI training materials
  • Competitions and hackathons

Other forms are possible. The specific kind of training to be conducted by a participant depends on the specific needs at the institution, the background of the students (or mentees), as well as the desired outcomes of the training. The T3-CIDERS team will provide support to the trainers in preparation, logistics, assessments of the local training events.

High School Outreach

T3-CIDERS participants will also be encouraged to conduct outreach activities to local high schools to spread the awareness of cybersecurity research, as well as CI methods and tools.

Additional CI Training Modules

T3-CIDERS participants will collaborative design and create additional training module(s) on prevailing CI techniques that are used in state-of-the-art cybersecurity research. This is part of a community building activity.
