The Defence Cyber Academy builds upon the existing Defence Cyber School, and will reach Initial Operating Capability in 2023 and Full Operating Capability in 2024. At Initial Operating Capability the Defence Cyber Academy will be able to address the current Ministry of Defence requirement for individual cyber training in full. At Full Operating Capability, all positions in the Defence Cyber Academy will be filled, programmes in place for external engagement, international courses available to allies and partners and a cross-Government Defence and Security skills framework established.
