Google is offering Sub-Saharan Africans 2000 Scholarship for a Career Certificate Course.

There is a growing demand for cybersecurity skills across all sectors. It is estimated that there are about 3.5 million cybersecurity job vacancies globally, up from just 1 million in 2013.

Google is launching an online Cybersecurity Certificate on Coursera for Sub-Saharan Africa to address the region’s cybersecurity skills gap. With 2,000 scholarships, the course will boost digital transformation and economic growth by equipping learners with in-demand tech skills.

In Africa, we can save $4bn annually by preventing cybercrime, with cybersecurity threats rising as the world becomes more connected. However, there is a need for more trained cybersecurity experts – a recent survey revealed that two-thirds of enterprises reported issues recruiting and retaining qualified cyber professionals.

Google is committed to helping strengthen cybersecurity in Africa by sharing our expertise and expanding access to cybersecurity careers for more people.

That’s why today, in Sub-Saharan Africa, we are announcing a new Google Career Certificate available online on Coursera, which prepares learners for new careers in the high-growth field of cybersecurity. This new certificate allows Africans to gain skills in this highly sought-after tech field.
