Building a diverse, work-ready talent pipeline for Louisiana
C.L.I.M.B. connects schools, apprenticeships, and industry to grow the cybersecurity workforce our state needs.
From the classroom to the career
C.L.I.M.B.’s mission is to create a diverse and technically competent workforce primarily for the City of Baton Rouge and the State of Louisiana — but these initiatives have national and global implications.
