Focus Group on Cybersecurity and Cloud Computing Education in Albania
Within the EU-funded WEB-NIMBUS Project, a focus group was held in Tirana with representatives from UNYT and UET to discuss Albania’s regulatory framework on data protection, cybersecurity, and cloud computing education.
Discussions highlighted the growing need for a domestic data center, skilled cybersecurity professionals, and modernized academic curricula integrating AI, Quantum Computing, GDPR, and Cyber Diplomacy. Participants also noted significant regulatory gaps in cloud services and the absence of dedicated Edge and Cloud Computing programs in Albania, underlining the urgency for specialized education in this field.
