The article deals with professional certification and advanced training of
cybersecurity professionals in the UK. It shows that researchers in the UK, as well as in
Western Europe, are debating the meaning of “recognition”, “accreditation”, “certification”
and “licensing” of professional qualifications. The reason for such an interest is the
legitimate try to implement the employment freedom principle, the specific need to make
full use of professionals’ working capacity and professional competence and the promotion
of mobility and exchange in the European space. The article indicates that professional
recognition of higher education qualifications in the UK somewhat differs from that in
Western Europe. Professional recognition lies in obtaining the status of a certified
professional in the field of cybersecurity under international standards, rather than
obtaining an appropriate academic degree. The article proves that certification and
advanced training of cybersecurity professionals in the UK is provided at the level of
universities, international organizations. Besides, they take various forms (mainly online
learning) on a paid basis, differ in the duration of the study and the content of courses. The
following structures and companies are considered as most prestigious for employment
(internship): "Accenture”, “Canary Wharf”, “Indonesian Ministry of Finance”, “JP Morgan”,
“IBM”, “Ministry of Defence”, “Royal Mail”, “Singapore Police”, “CISCO”, “Facebook”
and many others. Importantly, they put forward significant demands on the certification of
professionals. The recognition of cybersecurity professionals’ qualifications lies in two
forms (state and certified). Certification takes place in the Academic Centres of Excellence
in Cyber Security Research, the National Cyber Security Centre, as well as in public and
private companies and international organizations. They create opportunities for obtaining
the status of a Master in Cyber Security, a certified cybersecurity engineer, a certified IT
support professional.
