Federal Cyber Workforce Training Act of 2025

The "Federal Cyber Workforce Training Act of 2025" mandates that the National Cyber Director , in consultation with various Federal agencies, develop and submit a comprehensive plan to Congress within 180 days of the Act's enactment. This plan is for the establishment of a Federal institute dedicated to enhancing the Federal cyber workforce. The proposed institute would function as a centralized resource and training center, offering modularized, work role-specific training , including hands-on learning and skill-based assessments. Its primary focus is to prepare new hires and personnel transitioning to mid-career positions for effective performance in Federal cyber roles, while also addressing the training needs of human resources staff involved in cyber personnel management. The plan must recommend an organizational placement for the institute, align training with the NICE framework , and detail curriculum, delivery methods, and a governance structure. It also needs to identify required facilities, resources, and an estimate of necessary funding, though the Act itself does not authorize additional appropriations. The Director is required to brief Congress on the plan within 270 days.
