Amman, September 22nd, 2025: Zain Innovation Campus (ZINC), in collaboration with Cyber Shield Academy of Jordan Design and Development Bureau (JODDB), has launched the third edition of “Cybersecurity Skills Development Program,” with the participation of 83 students from various Jordanian universities. The program continues to build on previous successes by enhancing students’ expertise in one of today’s most vital technology fields.
The third edition of the program kicked off at Jordan university, Al-Balqa Applied University, and Yarmouk University. Earlier this year, the program was launched at the National Employment and Training Company’s headquarters within the Aqaba National Vocational Training hub, tailored for students in Aqaba governorates. The program will also expand in the coming period to include Mutah University, Hashemite University, ZINC’s branch in Aqaba, which is located at the great Arab Revolt Plaza, and later, its branch at Public Security Directorate, thereby reaching a broader segment of university students and related technical disciplines.
The program offers 100 hours of intensive training that combines both theoretical and practical components. Topics include network security, Linux operating systems, fundamental and advanced cybersecurity, ethical hacking, and digital forensics, delivered under the supervision of expert trainers from Cyber Shield Academy at JODDB. Upon completion, participants will receive an accredited certificate from the academy.
The launch of the third edition underscores Zain Innovation Campus’s (ZINC) ongoing commitment to supporting Jordanian youth, equipping them with modern digital skills, and preparing a new generation of national talents in the field of cybersecurity, in line with the Kingdom’s digital transformation goals.
