IBM has offered [free skills training](https://www.ibm.com/skills/topics/cybersecurity/) for professionals interested in a cybersecurity career for many years, along with other educational programs, says [Justina Nixon-Saintil](https://www.ibm.com/blogs/corporate-social-responsibility/author/justinanixonsaintil/), vice president and global head of IBM corporate social responsibility. Anyone can take these courses; they’re not available only to employees.

“As part of IBM’s [commitment](https://newsroom.ibm.com/2021-10-13-IBM-Commits-to-Skill-30-Million-People-Globally-by-2030) to skill 30 million people globally by 2030, we are providing free education on [key technologies like cybersecurity](https://fortune.com/education/business/articles/2022/07/22/cybersecurity-hiring-remains-red-hot-the-industry-to-surpass-400-billion-market-size-by-2027/), with a focus on underrepresented communities,” Nixon-Saintil tells Fortune. “Whether learners are just entering the workforce or switching professions, [IBM SkillsBuild](https://skillsbuild.org/) equips them with the foundational skills to pursue [high-demand, lucrative careers](https://fortune.com/education/business/articles/2022/06/30/companies-are-desperate-for-cybersecurity-workers-more-than-700k-positions-need-to-be-filled/).”
