How to Break into GRC: Mindset, Methods, Skills

What’s standing in the way of your career crossover into cybersecurity? Have you heard of the Governance Risk & Compliance (GRC) function, or that’s awesome and underrated? In solving the catch 22 problem of cybersecurity hiring managers wanting experienced applicants to add value from day one, and applicants wanting a shot to get that experience, GRC is a great feeder role for you to break through.

This free course is provided in 10 sections including 48 lessons and will introduce you to the wonderful world of GRC by teaching some basics about Mindset, Methods, and Skills needed for GRC.
