"Schools across the Commonwealth, including Northern Virginia Community College, will begin to offer professional cybersecurity job training from Google, Governor Glenn Youngkin announced.

Youngkin joined Google executives and Virginia education leaders Thursday morning to announce a new Google Career Certificate in Cybersecurity.

Officials said the certificate will help businesses in Virginia "fill critical roles and enable more job seekers to access well-paying cybersecurity jobs."

The certificate can be completed online in under six months of part-time study -- with no degree or experience required,” reports ABC 7 News.
