The next cyber sleuth could come from the Lenawee Intermediate
School District (LISD).
Eastern Michigan University has signed an articulation
agreement between the EMU School of Technology Studies,
Information Assurance Program and Lenawee Intermediate
School District (LISD) to help prepare students in the
field of information assurance and network security.

"Students enrolled in the CISCO Academy in the LISD will
be able to complete the CISCO certificates and convert
those to 15 college credits that apply directly to the
Information Assurance/Network Security Degree at EMU," said
Gerald "Skip" Lawver, program coordinator of the information
assurance degree at EMU. "This program has direct impact
on STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) learning
and we at EMU are proud that Lenawee has taken a leadership
role in preparing their graduates for positions of trust
in the 21st century."
"We anticipate that more of the 24 CISCO Academies in
Michigan will take advantage of this opportunity, and we
are eager to support these students in furthering their
career pathway into the cyber security community," Lawver
said.
