ITIC LIVE

Congratulations to Nisha for achieving the Certified Cyber Incident Response Manager Certification! Nisha is a recent graduate of our WIL (Work Integrated Learning) Program in , and worked closely with her mentor Jeff Whitton, FAICD, CDPSE. during her internship.

“Dear Jeff, I want to thank you for the opportunity to be a part of ITIC as an intern and providing me with very important life and career insights under your mentorship.

I am thankful for your guidance, and for assisting me to navigate through “Project Ares”. It was a great learning experience for me as I got the opportunity to explore the tools that would help me a lot in my future career.

I am especially grateful to you for introducing me to the security community that I can be a part of and really all the information that is going to be valuable for me moving forward with my career.”

There's nothing more heart warming than receiving messages like this from our students! This is why we do what do. We have no doubt that Nisha will achieve great things in her career, and we look forward to supporting more students just like Nisha!

It is a mixed feeling watching the final presentation from our interns. As we wrap up the Semester 1 2022 WIL (Work Integrated Learning) Internship Program for Macquarie University this week, we are sad to say goodbye (for now) to this cohort of dynamic and talented interns we worked closely with in the past 3 months, at the same time, we are so proud of each and every one of you for what you have achieved!

The last three months have been incredible, it has been a privilege watching you learn and grow. Thank you all for your hard work and contributions to the team. It has been such a pleasure working with you and we cannot wait to see where your careers take you!

We would like to also thank the mentors who so generously donated their time and for the many ways you are making this a meaningful and positive experience!

Hope we cross paths again, but until then, we wish our interns the best of luck in their future endeavours, we are certain you'll achieve everything you work towards!
