Security Education

Qalqan Academy

Qalqan Academy is the education strand of the outlet, for those entering the profession or changing it.

The main problem with entering security is not the absence of information but the absence of a map: it is unclear which professions exist at all, how they differ and what is actually expected of a specialist.

The Academy is built around the eight Qalqan sectors: each has practising specialists, real tasks and a clear set of skills.

Who it is for

  • Students
  • Early-career specialists
  • Aspiring investigators
  • Aspiring security engineers
  • Future security officers
  • IT specialists
  • Lawyers
