The Mount’s post-baccalaureate certificate in risk management and cybersecurity was designed with working professionals in mind – especially those without advanced technology experience.
You’ll begin your program by gaining an understanding of the integration between computer architecture, operating systems and application programs, along with network concepts, foundations of the internet and risks associated with connectivity.
Mount professors will discuss practical topics such as keeping individual computers safe while online and ensuring email is secure.

And with our accelerated course delivery you’ll complete the certificate with a capstone project that demonstrates the skills and tools you’ve learned as it applies to your career in as quickly as one year.
