"Our daily life, economic vitality, and national security depend on a stable, safe, and resilient cyberspace."
-U.S. Department of Homeland Security
"Did you know that cybersecurity professionals report an average salary of $116,000? That's nearly three times the national average. The demand for cybersecurity experts is growing 12 times faster than the current U.S. job market, making cybersecurity one of the most highly sought-after careers in the country".
-National Initiative for Cybersecurity Careers and Studies.
Who Can Take Our Course?
Anyone looking for a stable and successful career may want to consider the cybersecurity industry. According to the Cybersecurity Jobs Report, there will be approximately 3.5 million unfilled cybersecurity jobs by 2022; against that backdrop, global cybercrime is expected to climb to 6 trillion annually that same year. According to Forbes, entry-level cybersecurity positions' annual salary starts as high as $85,000.
Cybersecurity is now a global priority as cybercrime and digital threats grow in frequency and complexity. However, one of the major setbacks preventing a handle on cybercrime is the cybersecurity workforce shortage and lack of new professionals funneling into this industry.
As you can imagine, the cybersecurity industry is turning to businesses and higher education institutions to educate and prepare the next generation of cyber professionals. Currently, this industry's unemployment rate stands at 0%, where it has been for the past eight years and is expected to remain there for the next several years.
The biggest issue that industries and organizations of all sizes and types, ranging from Fortune 500 and Global 2000 corporations to small-to-midsize businesses, governments, and schools globally, is scrambling to hire qualified cybersecurity professionals. Do not take our word for it; go to any job search engines like Glassdoor, Indeed, Ziprecruiter, and so on and type in "cyber" in the job search and see the results for yourself.

FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
New Financing Option Available to Students at Eretmis Academy
Students enrolled in Eretmis Academy who needs tuition or financial assistance will now have access to an innovative new financing option to pay for their courses, thanks to our partnership with the Meritize platform.
The new financing option will help students finance their careers in cybersecurity. The demand for cybersecurity professionals is at an all-time high. There are over 597,767 unfilled cybersecurity job openings in the United States(cyberseek.org). Employment of information security analysts is projected to grow 33 percent from 2020 to 2030, much faster than the average for all occupations (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics).
Unlike traditional lenders that rely solely on FICO scores, and other financial records to determine whether to lend to an individual. the Meritize platform considers the full depth of an individual’s academic or military achievements to enhance credit evaluation and potentially improve loan options.
Because the new financing option considers previous academic or military experiences, merit-based financing may provide a significant source of financial and credit assistance for students who are self-financing their cybersecurity training.
