From July 2026, we are trialling a new online learning platform. This platform helps Queensland Government cyber practitioners build skills and knowledge.

It offers self-paced courses led by experts, hands-on labs, and certification preparation. Many certification courses, such as Certified Information Security Professional (CISSP) and Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), are available on the platform.

If you want to take a certification exam, you or your agency will need to pay the exam fee.

Licences are limited. To express your interest, email the Cyber Skills team at csucyberskills@cyber.qld.gov.au. Include your current cyber role and your department details.
