Academy participation is by invitation only for select Deloitte clients. An average of 30-35 high performing senior security leaders make up each Academy class. Space is intentionally limited to one participant per company and small classroom sizes to enhance the learning experience and promote deep relationships among high-performing peers. Deloitte account teams work with their client’s leadership to identify a participant to attend the Academy.

Candidates who meet the Academy criteria typically have the following background:

• Looking for elevation to CISO or has under two years of tenure in the CISO role

• Reports directly to the CISO and leads a security area or domain (SecOps, IAM, etc.)

The Academy offers a tailored leadership development experience through a unique and proven combination of keynote speakers, small group learning, and workshops. Whether your expertise lies in engineering, cyber security or IT, the Academy is an opportunity to take a step away from the tactics of your job and invest in your own leadership and professional development.

The Academy is typically held in-person at Deloitte University, our premier leadership development facility located outside Dallas-Fort Worth. It typically launches with a short virtual session on Zoom a few days prior to participants arriving at Deloitte University.
