Cybersecurity company Cybastion brings its Africa DigiEmpower training program to the Democratic Republic of Congo. The firm signed agreements with DRC Youth Minister Grâce Kutino and Cisco Vice President Macy Andrew at the technology company's New York headquarters during United Nations General Assembly meetings. THEYA Foundation will operate the education initiative through mobile training units and American Spaces facilities.
The program teaches students artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, and digital infrastructure skills at no cost. Young adults and women receive priority enrollment in the technical courses offered through Cisco Networking Academy partnerships. Officials plan to extend training beyond major urban centers to reach rural communities across the central African nation. The workforce development effort aims to prepare participants for competition in global technology markets.
