A CSE Connect Regional Hub Collaborator
Pedro Coelho is a BSc Cyber Security student at Sheffield Hallam and the Chair of The National Cybersecurity & Forensics Alliance (NCFA). He along with his Vice-Chair Mateusz Madrzynski a Digital Forensics student at University West of England [UWE] are coming along to share with us details of a growing collaborative network connecting cybersecurity and digital forensics societies across universities in the UK. The alliance promotes shared resources, national networking, leadership support, and unified professional development opportunities for all participating institutions.
The NCFA is built by students for students, working together to strengthen cybersecurity and digital forensics education across the country. This formalised structure showcases the alliance’s foundation and its commitment to national collaboration, making it suitable for presentation to universities and professional organisations.
They will present for around 30-45 minutes allowing for a Q&A. They are hoping to glean insights from educators about how they can best engage with university lecturers to build resilience as they grow this inclusive and supportive network.
