Expanding Cybersecurity Workforce Act of 2025

This bill mandates the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to establish a new program within its existing Cybersecurity Education and Training Assistance Program within 180 days of enactment. The program's primary goal is to promote the cybersecurity field to a wide array of disadvantaged communities , including older individuals, racial and ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, geographically and socioeconomically diverse communities, women, individuals from nontraditional educational paths, veterans, and formerly incarcerated individuals. To achieve this, CISA must conduct extensive outreach to various institutions such as educators, unions, chambers of commerce, and community colleges, while tailoring the program to the unique needs of each region and sector. The Director is required to submit annual reports to Congress on the program's efficacy and impact on the cyber workforce, with an authorization of $20,000,000 annually for fiscal years 2026 through 2031 to fund these efforts.
