The MNC Cybersecurity Workforce Hub

Building Employer-Aligned Cybersecurity Talent Pipelines

The MNC Cybersecurity Workforce Hub is a coordinated workforce infrastructure model that aligns community, structured education, and workforce pathways to develop employer-ready cybersecurity professionals.

Built by Minorities in Cybersecurity (MiC), the Hub connects employers, educational institutions, workforce organizations, and community partners through a shared commitment to workforce readiness—not simply workforce training.

The issue is not talent. It is alignment.

Why the Hub Exists

Organizations continue to invest in cybersecurity education, certifications, and recruiting.

Yet hiring challenges persist because training alone does not create workforce readiness.

Cybersecurity professionals must develop:

  • Technical competence

  • Professional judgment

  • Leadership

  • Communication

  • Applied experience

  • Decision-making in real-world environments

The Workforce Hub aligns these elements into a coordinated talent pipeline that better reflects how employers evaluate readiness.

The Workforce Infrastructure Model

The Hub coordinates three independent organizations that each serve a distinct purpose:

Minorities in Cybersecurity (MiC)

Leadership development, mentorship, networking, and professional identity.

MNC-CTC

Structured education through the Cybersecurity Residency Program.

MiC Talent Solutions

Employer engagement, apprenticeships, workforce services, and talent placement.

Together they create a continuous pathway:

Career Exploration → Professional Development → Workforce Readiness → Employment

Why MNC-CTC

As the education partner within the Workforce Hub, MNC-CTC provides:

  • Texas Workforce Commission-approved occupational instruction

  • Cybersecurity Residency Program

  • Applied learning

  • Leadership development

  • Workforce-ready professional formation

  • Alignment with employer expectations

Education becomes one component of a larger workforce strategy.

Important Clarifier

Mary N. Chaney Cybersecurity Training Center (MNC-CTC) is a Texas Workforce Commission (TWC)–approved career school that provides formal occupational instruction through the Cybersecurity Residency Program.

As the education partner within the MNC Cybersecurity Workforce Hub, MNC-CTC collaborates with two independent organizations that support other stages of the cybersecurity talent lifecycle:

  • MNC-CTC delivers formal occupational instruction, curriculum, faculty oversight, student services, and regulatory compliance.

  • Minorities in Cybersecurity (MiC) provides leadership development, mentorship, networking, and professional community programming.

  • MiC Talent Solutions provides apprenticeship pathways, employer engagement, workforce services, and talent placement.

Together, these organizations create the MNC Cybersecurity Workforce Hub—a coordinated workforce infrastructure model that aligns community, structured education, and workforce pathways to develop employer-ready cybersecurity professionals.

Enrollment at MNC-CTC does not automatically include participation in MiC community programming or MiC Talent Solutions apprenticeship and workforce services. Participation in those programs is separate and subject to their respective eligibility requirements, policies, and enrollment processes.

Organizations can participate by:

  • Hosting Workforce Hub locations

  • Sponsoring student cohorts
