Electronic Crime Partnership Initiative
Education and Training
    Virtually everyone involved in cybercrime has a training need. At one end of the spectrum
    there is a need for undergraduate and graduate programs to understand and develop
    new science to combat cybercrime advances for skilled practitioners around the world. At
    the other end is the need to instruct a first responder to do no harm and preserve the
    evidence appropriately.

    There is a rush to fill the apparent vacuum in education and training. There are actors
    involved in every aspect of training ranging from respected universities to well-meaning
    amateurs. The solution to training and education issues clearly requires close
    cooperation between industry, law enforcement, academia, and professional
    organizations. This working group will investigate three areas: training courses and
    degree programs,multidisciplinary labs and research, and faculty development and
    capacity building.
