Shaffick Mohammed

Assistant Program Director – Cybersecurity, Champlain College

Overview: Advanced security tools require skilled people to operate them, yet organizations face widening talent gaps as many experienced professionals near retirement and training replacements takes 3-5 years. This session examines why succession planning and talent pipeline development are now mission-critical defensive strategies, and explores proven approaches for organizations to address workforce challenges before they become security vulnerabilities. Presented by someone who's lived the problem from both sides: 30 years managing cybersecurity programs and developing workforce capabilities at AT&T, 10 years preparing the next generation at Chattahoochee Tech and Champlain College.

Lunch and informal networking.
