Assemblymember Luz Rivas presented a ceremonial check of $1 million in federal funding to Los Angeles Valley College on April 25 for the creation of a cybersecurity center at the college’s Valley Academic Hall, which opened in February. The goal is to expand the college’s existing Cybersecurity Program into a training and innovation hub to train future workers. This is to support California’s initiative to train 50,000 entry-level cybersecurity professionals by 2030. Before presenting the check, Rivas spoke to a group of students learning about the basics of electronics. (Photo Courtesy of the Office of Luz Rivas)
