NSA Grant for Free Cyber Workforce Training and Certification(USA Citizens Only

[ashkir]

That's pretty ridiculous. A transcript, especially a recent transcript, should be more than sufficient to prove that you have those skills.

Yeah. I Tried talking with their program manager. Didn't go over so well. They're like "no you have to do these". I told her I have the skills, etc, I don't want to sit for entire tests etc. 

They're asking for over 50x the data that UMPI asked for as well. They want everything about you. Passport, ID's, full birth certificate, social security, a credit statement, previous background checks, full employer checks, they asked me for an employer recommendation for the program, full college transcripts, high school transcripts, etc. They're asking for a lot . 

I have feel like this is just an NSA data harvesting project to show how gullible Americans are.
