A recent study by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.isc2.org\/-\/media\/ISC2\/Research\/2018-ISC2-Cybersecurity-Workforce-Study.ashx?la=en&amp;hash=4E09681D0FB51698D9BA6BF13EEABFA48BD17DB0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Global Information Security Workforce<\/a>&nbsp;estimates that by 2022, approximately 1000,000 cybersecurity jobs will be available in the EU region.

In September,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/flatironschool.com\/blog\/weworks-flatiron-school-joins-australias-growing-tech-ecosystem\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the school announced<\/a>&nbsp;its expansion to Australia to broaden students\u2019 opportunity to land a career in tech.
