About
Gwinnett Tech’s Cybersecurity program is offered during the fall, spring, and summer semesters at our Lawrenceville and Alpharetta-North Fulton campuses. Program classes are scheduled for day or evening, and students may begin the program during the fall, spring, or summer semesters.
From the first day we opened our doors at Gwinnett Area Technical School in 1984; our goal has been to provide students with an education that leads directly to a rewarding career. Along the way, we’ve expanded program offerings, made two name changes, added many facilities, and experienced record-setting enrollment growth. All results from our goal to be the recognized expert in career education, providing outstanding experiences for our students and a skilled workforce for employers.
In the 1980s, business and industry experienced a profound change in technology. To meet the demand for technological training, Gwinnett Tech expanded our offerings to include a wider variety of high-tech programs. In 1988, we changed our name to Gwinnett Technical Institute, aligning Gwinnett Tech with the network of state technical institutes under the Technical College System of Georgia (TCSG).
The following year, TCSG approved Gwinnett Tech to grant the associate degree of applied technology (AAT) in six programming areas. This paved the way for our accreditation with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges.
Gwinnett Tech reached another benchmark on July 6, 2000, when we changed our name to Gwinnett Technical College. The name change was made possible by Georgia’s A+ Education Reform Act of 2000, which allowed technical institutes with proper accreditation to be designated as colleges.
For over 30 years, Gwinnett Tech has expanded to include a variety of new facilities. Key additions include the George Busbee International Center for Workforce Development, which opened in 2003, and a state-of-the-art Life Sciences Center, which opened in 2011, serving 3,000 each year and enabling us to expand health science offerings. In addition, we expanded our campus in January 2016 to North Fulton, where the first building on the 25-acre site has three stories and approximately 95,000 square feet, housing both classrooms and administrative offices. Program offerings include Information Technology and Health Sciences.
Today, Gwinnett Tech offers more than 140 associate degrees, diplomas, certificate programs, and hundreds of seminars, workshops, and courses providing specialized training. Gwinnett Tech is Gwinnett County’s largest corporate training provider and serves residents and businesses in north Fulton County. We’re one of Georgia’s largest technical colleges committed to delivering relevant knowledge to meet the workforce training needs of its community.
These programs will prepare you for jobs in the field of information technology, including those related to cybersecurity, networking, and other computer support positions.

Devmountain’s cybersecurity course will cover core programming language skills for use in security engineering including Python and Linux, as well as networking principles, software systems, core and offensive security practices, and standards, maintenance, and communication.
Cyber security — protecting electronic files — affects every aspect of our lives, from home and workplace to homeland security. Cyber security is the science of gathering, preserving and analyzing the data found in digital devices.
Managing organizational security tops the priority list of organizations with boundless exposure of information, data, and networks to the entire world.
