Launched by Digital Economy Minister Ed Vaizey at Reform's recent 'Cyber security: assurance, resilience, response' conference, the 'Inspired Careers' website (www.inspiredcareers.org) has been developed with funding from the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) as part of the UK government's National Cyber Security Programme, with the support of CREST, the not-for-profit body that represents the technical information assurance industry.

It is an interactive careers hub for people looking to enter the Cyber Security industry straight from education; those who want to move into Cyber Security from other industries; or those already working within the industry who want to further their careers. Its main aim is to encourage people into the industry and make them aware of all of the different roles open to them, giving access to the information they need – in a clear and manageable way – to make informed decisions.

Inspired Careers brings together information on the wide range of careers available in the industry and helps people to choose not only what they want to do now, but also to plan out their own career path. Alongside actual job and internship ads, relevant professional and academic courses, articles, whitepapers and social media advice, one of the key areas of content for site are ‘Day in the Life’ films that show people carrying out their day-to-day job roles.
