Cisco/I4G CyberSecurity Scholarship Details:
According to a report by Cybersecurity Ventures, the number of unfilled cybersecurity jobs grew from 1 million positions in 2013 to 3.5 million in 2021.
A lot of these roles are still yet to be filled because of a lack of talent. Yet, predictions show that there would be the same number of openings in 2025.
Ingressive for Good exists to equip young Africans in need with tech skills to help them impact and contribute to the development of Africa, socially and economically. Ingressive For Good (I4G) was created to address the glaring inequities that exist within African tech ecosystems.
The organization awards partial scholarships to the Ivy Leagues of Africa for tech final-year students in need. This financial support also provides a laptop for the student, to aid their education. Every student who receives this scholarship will automatically become a part of the I4G Alumni.
