CNMCyber Coordinator

Any CNM Cyber Project Coordinator (hereinafter, the Coord) is the learner matriculated into the WorldOpp Pipeline program who is undergoing initial practical training. This training is a part of the CNM Cyber Placement stage. CNM Cyber (hereinafter, the Cyber) is a collection of services that include (a) information technology called CNM Cloud (hereafter, the Cloud), as well as (b) apprenticeships and internships that are organized at the Cloud.

At the Occupational Information Network, the closest occupation is Information Technology Project Manager. The Certified Information Technology Project Management Associate (CITPMA) credential is awarded to the successful Coords.

What Coords produce

To facilitate development of Project deliverables, the Coords produce three categories of first-level results:

Communications such as reports on projects' progress. Run
Documents with the results of approvals, developments, meetings, and research. Produce
Meetings, especially with project stakeholders. Organize

Communications

Altogether with Documents and Meetings, communications are first-level results of the Coords's work. Among the other Results, the overwhelming majority of meetings represent project scrap; they used to communicate deliverable and project details. Meetings may also be project outputs, for instance, that happens in the Sysadmins for CNM Cloud project.

Beyond the Coord's work, some projects may also initiate further meetings as project outcomes or project impacts. In the meanwhile, the Coords may work on various purposes of meetings, including:

Published, which are meetings between contractor candidates and CNM Cyber administrators organized to discuss potential entering into a contract and/or to make that decision.
Mailed, which are CNM Cyber events organized to promote CNM Cyber, its needs and services to outreach to current and potential clients and participants. These meetings are normally published at the CNM Cyber Meetup group.
Vocalized, which are CNM Cyber events organized (a) to discuss deliverable features, (b) to make deliverable decisions, and/or (c) to communicate those decisions.
Conferenced, which are CNM Cyber events organized (a) to discuss project features, (b) to make project decisions, and/or (c) to communicate those decisions

Communications tend to address a number of purposes. For instance, Reports of the CNM Technology Board may tough both product and project features and decisions. When they are open to the general public, they also serve the outreach purpose.

Descriptions of products are produced at CNM Wiki and include descriptions of ideas for the development of future products.

Documents

Documents are the single most important deliverable of the Coords's work. For each project that the Coords work on, they document the results of approvals, developments, Meetings, and research.

Documents are usually part of other products. For example, products normally come with instructions. However, some of documents represent products on their own. Returning to the same example, to bundle the functional product with the instructions, those instructions were needed to be developed before. The Coords may work on the following types of documents:

Blueprints, which are document prototypes useful to create final documents. For instance, the Careerprise contractor agreement is used as a blueprint to draw up contracts with individual contractors. As a rule, these target documents are published on CNM Wiki.
Legal documents, especially, contracts, which are legally-binding agreements. The Cyber's documents are further stored at CNM Venture.
Outreach publications, which are marketing materials intended to outreach to current and potential clients and participants such as Friends Of CNM newsletters.
Product documents starting with deliverable requirements, continuing with communications between product owners and developers, as well as ending with organizational and technical documentation such as standard operating procedures (SOPs), minutes of the meetings, testing and other reports, etc.
Project documents, which are project requirements and communications between project owners and developers. No one, but the Coords, can be responsible for publishing of project documents on CNM Git and CNM Wiki.

Meetings

Altogether with Documents and Communications, meetings are the three most common results of the Coords's work. Among the other Results, the overwhelming majority of meetings represent project scrap; they used to communicate deliverable and project details. Meetings may also be project outputs, for instance, that happens in the Sysadmins for CNM Cloud project.

Beyond the Coord's work, some projects may also initiate further meetings as project outcomes or project impacts. In the meanwhile, the Coords may work on various purposes of meetings, including:

Hiring events, which are meetings between contractor candidates and CNM Cyber administrators organized to discuss potential entering into a contract and/or to make that decision.
Outreach meetings, which are CNM Cyber events organized to promote CNM Cyber, its needs and services to outreach to current and potential clients and participants. These meetings are normally published at the CNM Cyber Meetup group.
Product meetings, which are CNM Cyber events organized (a) to discuss deliverable features, (b) to make deliverable decisions, and/or (c) to communicate those decisions.
Project meetings, which are CNM Cyber events organized (a) to discuss project features, (b) to make project decisions, and/or (c) to communicate those decisions

Meetings tend to address a number of purposes. For instance, meetings of the CNM Technology Board may tough both product and project features and decisions. When they are open to the general public, they also serve the outreach purpose.

What Coords do

Each project can have the Coord who is responsible for it. In addition to their meeting and document production, the Coords work on (a) Defining the deliverable, (b) Producing the deliverable, (c) Commissioning the deliverable, and (d) Managing the product.

Defining the deliverable

The main goal of the deliverable planning and production activities is to get the deliverable in a state of certainty, which is determined by the presence of a production consent. In other words, planning is getting a description of the deliverable and its development process in such a way that allows this development to be certain. To achieve this goal, the responsible Coord:

Identifies those available resources that should or can be used in development at no additional cost. Human resources include Personnel. Other resources include those presented in the initial WorldOpp Pipeline courses, on CNM Wiki, existing prototypes and finished products, and materials available on the World Wide Web and other sources. For off-the-shelf products, developer websites and professional resources like https://stackoverflow.com/ are usually helpful.
Collects data using identified resources. This study includes communicating with stakeholders, reviewing documents, and testing those prototypes and finished products that are available.
Selects those resources and those data that will be involved in the development.
Inventories those data, tools, materials, prototypes and factors that have been identified as being or could be involved in the development.
Describes the future deliverable and its possible production, based on the resources identified in the inventory. The description may include (a) business requirements, (b) prototypes, (c) stakeholder requirements, as well as drafts for deliverable specifications, work specifications, and, possibly, some elements of production consent.
Makes sure that the Customer who requested the deliverable needs exactly the deliverable that meets the described business requirements.
Brings stakeholder requirements in line with the business requirements.
Formulates the difference between what actually is and what is needed. With regards to the deliverable, this identified difference should be addressed by the deliverable specification.
Checks deliverable specifications for completeness. Completeness is characterized by the presence of conditions for (a) functionality, (b) applicability, and (c) manageability of the deliverable. Conditions of applicability should include deliverable documentation, such as system diagrams, a list of necessary accesses, as well as the availability of a working instruction for operation such as standard operating procedure (SOP), measures to protect the deliverable and instructions for recovery in case of accidents.
Evaluates whether it is necessary to involve third-party contractors in the deliverable production and, if necessary, whether their assistance is required to create deliverable specifications, work specifications, and production consent draft.
Provides data to the Customer for making a decision either to attract external contractors or to produce the deliverable with internal personnel. The positive decision assumes the financing of the production work.
Brings requirements and other development documents to completeness. At some cases, this activity may end after the production of a functional part of the deliverable.

If further production will be carried out without the involvement of contractors, the Customer can authorize its beginning before the completion of the production consent. In this case, the requirements are finalized taking into account the data obtained during the production process.

If external contractors are required, the Coord will further:

Prepares the hiring of contractors for development, including developing texts for solicitation announcements and options for their placement, forming a list of consultants and potential developers, as well as organizing a community on the CNM Social and scheduling video conferences to which everyone interested in development will be invited.
Invites contractors to develop and, in parallel, refine the deliverable specification, work specification, and production consent, including the scope of work, schedule and development budget.
Assists in the process of hiring development contractors, including the selection of the most promising candidates, negotiations, the conclusion of a development contract and the commissioning of contractors. Historically, requirements are refined during the recruitment process. If the requirements cannot be formulated during the recruitment process, they themselves become the target deliverable of an intermediary project.
Informs the Customer about the readiness of the contract or contract for the conclusion. The conclusion of the contract authorizes the financing of the production of the deliverable by contractors. One of the consultants may be contracted for consultations and/or participation in video conferences.

The planning of both the deliverable itself and the process of its production opens before the start of work on the direct production of the deliverable and, even if contractors are involved, it is periodically resumed after the start, since the production always reveals new factors and requirements.

Producing the deliverable

The main goal of deliverable development activities is to obtain the deliverable in a state of capability, which is determined by the fact that the deliverable meets all the deliverable specifications that have been approved for it. In addition to the deliverable itself, the process of its production must also satisfy the work specifications. To achieve this goal, the responsible Coord:

Oversees the production of the product, playing the roles of the product owner and project owner in the absence of other employees assigned to these roles. Thus, the Coord decides how, within the framework of the agreed requirements, the deliverable and the project should be.
Tests the deliverable and, if necessary, its parts.
Oversees the development and execution of the project, including monitoring compliance with the budget, schedule and scope of work.
Initiates changes to the requirements for the deliverable or its production.
Starts a project closed from the public on CNM Git for work on the deliverable in addition to the project wiki page on CNM Wiki.
Reports to the Customer on the status of the project, collecting, analyzing and summarizing information and trends.
Provides acceptance of the product, including the documentation that was agreed upon by the contract, or motivates the need to refuse acceptance after the contractor informs about the complete completion of work on the direct production of the product.
Makes changes to the documentation based on these developments.

If third-party contractors are involved in the development, the Coord will also:

Serves as an liaison between the Customer and contractors, reporting problems that need to be resolved.
Organizes videoconferences or other meetings of parties interested in the project, especially those necessary to resolve problems arising during the project.
Starts the process of paying contractors for their work. Prior to creating organizational procedures, this implies a request to the manager or Customer.

The direct production of a deliverable opens after the decision of the Customer to start this production, as a rule, when business and stakeholder requirements are present. deliverable and work specifications, as well as prototypes can be refined in parallel with the production of a viable product. The production of the deliverable is closed with the acceptance of the deliverable and can be resumed if problems with the viability of the deliverable are found out.

Commissioning the deliverable

The main goal of the deliverable transfer into operation is to obtain the deliverable in a state of applicability, which is determined by the fact that the deliverable is not only functional, but can also be used for the purpose for which it was produced. To achieve this goal, the responsible Coord:

Is responsible for restricting the contractor's further access to the deliverable.
Publishes the documentation received from the contractor on the Cloud resources. Internal, closed to the public, documentation, such as administrator access to installed software, is published on CNM Git. The documentation that can be open to the public without restrictions is published on CNM Wiki.
Contributes to the implementation of the transfer of the deliverable from accepted from the contractor to put into operation. This "contribution", in particular, may include (a) clarifying with the project manager which of the Personnel will administer the produced product, (b) transferring access to the classified documentation on CNM Git to administrators, (c) together with administrators, detailing the procedure for transferring the deliverable to operations, (d) standard operating procedures (SOPs), product protection measures and disaster recovery procedures, and (e) hiring service contractors. Maintenance may include prompt assistance at the request of administrators, periodic product revisions, and timely software updates, if applicable.
Makes changes reflecting the real state of affairs on this very wikipage, as well as related project wikipages.

The transition to production opens no later than the receipt of the finished deliverable and ends with the start of use of the product, usually initially during the beta testing process.

Managing the product

The main goal of product management activities is to get the product in a state of manageability, which is determined by the fact that the product is not only used for the purpose for which it was produced, but also controlled. This management includes both the improvement and improvement of product performance, as well as decisions to end-of-life or replace. To achieve this goal, the responsible Coord:

Monitors product usage, administrator performance, user feedback, and trends in markets associated with the product. We are talking about commercial versions of analogues, component parts, as well as changes in the factors and procedures for their conception, capacity, application and refinement.
Organizes video conferences or other meetings of parties interested in the product, especially those necessary to discuss the product, the work of administrators, user feedback and market trends.
Identifies problems and opportunities to improve the product or replace the product with other solutions.
Inventory the problems and opportunities that have been identified.
Presents the problems and opportunities identified in the inventory to the Customer for making decisions about opening new projects.
Makes changes reflecting the real state of affairs on this very wikipage, as well as related project wikipages.

Product management opens at the latest when the product is put into service and ends when the product gets retired.

Projects

The Coords work on projects, which can be defined as enterprise efforts undertaken to produce a unique deliverable, functional features of which are identified or can be identified before the efforts start. Any project can be viewed as a set of processes. The deliverables of the projects that the Coords coordinate are described in the Project deliverables section of this wikipage.

Authorized projects

Those projects that are fully funded, authorized, and available to the Coords are published on the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage.

Project results

The results of the Coords' work may be classified in four levels:

Project scraps, which are intermediate products that either become parts of the Project deliverables or have been decommissioned before the end of the project.
Project outputs, which are the things that both parties of the project deliver to each others. On the contractor's side, the outputs are Project deliverables.
Project outcomes. On the Coord's side, the outcomes are those KSAs that the Coord has obtained during the project coordination. On the other stakeholders' side, the outcomes are something for which the Project deliverables have been produced.
Project impacts, which are consequences of the project, its outputs and outcomes on a society.

Target outputs vs by-products

Project outputs are the part of Results that represent the things that both parties of the project deliver to each others.

Additional outputs are those Project deliverables for which development was not initiated, but which were developed as by-products.

As a rule, any project deliverable includes several intermediate outputs. Making a new accessory, for example, is impossible without documents that describe the requirements, and drawing up requirements is impossible without meeting events.

To achieve intermediate outputs, the Coord may follow the same procedure as for the project deliverables.

Target outputs are those deliverables for which the Customer has funded the development. Usually, we are talking about a package of the Project deliverables.

Choice of projects

The Coords have the right to choose the project that suit them best. The work of the Coords is paid when they work on those projects that are published on the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage. In addition, the Coords are encouraged to propose their own projects.

Project deliverables

The Coords primarily work on first-level results such as Communications, Documents, and Meetings to facilitate second-level results in various Categories, Product states, and Development areas.

The Coords rarely develop the terminal deliverable products directly. For the most part, contractors develop them. The contractors perform on the basis of approved descriptions and finalized by the Coors and/or other members of the Personnel.

Categories of deliverables

The aim of Cloud's developments is to produce new products or modify existing products. Those new and modified products that are produced during those developments are called deliverables. They may include one or more of the following:

Administrative procedures for personnel, financial, accounting and legal operations of the organizational structure behind the Cloud.
Applications known as CNM apps that can be used by current and potential students, apprentices and employees of the Cyber.
Content, such as texts, illustrations and multimedia materials that can be used in CNM apps.
Documents are the single most important deliverable of the Coords's work. Because of that fact, a separate section of this wikipage, Documents, is dedicated to them.
Events, especially CNM Cyber events, in which real people participate physically or remotely, such as interviews of candidates for contractors, meetings of professionals and conferences for potential participants. A separate section of this wikipage, Meetings, is dedicated to them.
Information resources for attracting potential partners and clients of the Cyber, such as websites, social media materials, and mailing lists, as well as standard messages, invitations and advertisements.
Labor resources. All products require work on them. However, the development of human resources is also one of the end products of the project, and in terms of developing the professional competencies of the Coords, its main goal.
Partnerships, which are contractual agreements to mutually develop and market offers. Historically, the Cyber team partnered with two Microsoft stores, in Pentagon City Mall and Tysons Corner Center, several employers, training providers, governmental, and non-profit organizations.
Positions, which are documented workplaces of associates included in the organizational structure. This very wikipage is the development of one of the Cyber positions. Moreover, the Coords are welcomed to own their role, which assumes both (a) developing and updating general instructions, policies, and/or recommendations for the Coords and (b) contributing to and grooming of the backlog of the Coord's tasks at the CNM Cloud Usable and related wikipages.
Relationships with potential and existing clients such as exhibitors, contractors and partners. Stakeholders are involved in communications through (a) hiring contractors to turn those descriptions that the Customer approved into the Project deliverables, (b) hiring employees for developed positions, (c) participation of potential the Cyber participants in events organized by the project.
Software that can be used in the Cloud.
Structures such as an organizational structure to organize the work of Personnel; their rights and duties are determined by positions.
Testing of project inputs and deliverables under development. At the Cyber, those projects that are undertaken in order to obtain testing results only are rare. The Coords execute the overwhelming majority of testing while obtaining other deliverables or simply utilizing existing Cyber products such as this very wikipage.

Personnel development

In terms of the development of human resources, the results of the work of the Coord can be:

Sourcing and orientation of contractors and new Coords by:
- Development of ads, own website and other resources.
- Placement of ads on specialized sites, social networks such as Telegram, TikTok, and Instagram, as well as other channels.
- Conducting video conferences and other events for interested parties.
- Finding partners among commercial, public and government organizations.
Development of professional knowledge, skills and abilities of the existing workforce and new recruits. That includes facilitating of training and participating in mentor-protégé arrangements.

Development areas

Students in practice are encouraged to suggest their project topics and development areas. Those projects that are published on the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage are grouped in the following areas:

Administration of the Cyber project, covering personnel, legal, financial and organizational issues.
Cloud. The most complete description of all technical projects is published on the CNM Cloud Usable wikipage. Based on the approved technical documentation, the results of the Coord's work can be a missing system or part of it, software, system content, consumer service, and, in general, the work of what did not work. As an information technology complex, the Cloud consists of:
1. CNM Farms, including tools for their high availability and recovery.
2. Opplet that serves both end-user applications called CNM apps and end-users directly.
3. CNM apps as software. Some application developments concern only their software, some - only the content used in the provision of services, some developments combine both.
Support for end-users, potential participants and partners of the Cyber.
Outreach to participants in the labor market and business services market.
Career services, including vocational guidance, training and employment with the support of volunteers and CNM apps, as well as business services for project participants.

Some products may belong to more than one area. For example, a hands-on training session is a service, but the announcements during it may be for the purpose of being in the market. Apps can be considered software, but apps that are capable and full of content are services first and foremost.

States and readiness

Product states

The Coords work to bring the item into one or more of the following states:

State of acknowledgment. In this state, the future deliverable exists in the form of a noticed and documented idea.
State of certainty. In this state, the future deliverable exists as a valid production consent.
State of capability. In this state, the functional deliverable has already been produced in accordance with all the requirements that have been approved for it.
State of applicability. In this state, the deliverable is not only functional, but can also be used for the purpose for which it was produced.
State of manageability. In this state, the deliverable is not only used for the purpose for which it was produced, but also controlled, that is, the product undergoes periodic revisions and is either improved and its characteristics are improved, or withdrawn from service.

In practice, these states do not always represent a hierarchy of five levels, in which the higher level includes the states of the lower levels. However, the Coords should strive for this ideal, for example, it is impossible to fully talk about applicability without capacity, manageability without certainty, and so on.

Devices of certainty

Business requirements. Description of the needs for which the development of the deliverable is undertaken.
Prototypes (from the Greek "prōtos" meaning "first", "original" and "typos" meaning "imprint", "imprint", pattern). Instances, samples or models, following the example of which others are made or finalized. Prototypes of the deliverable are often built to test a perception, concept, or process. Prototypes can either be selected from existing products or produced during a project.
Stakeholder requirements. Description of the future deliverable made on behalf of various types of its stakeholders.
Deliverable specifications. Set of tasks for deliverable developers regarding its required characteristics.
Work specifications. Description of the conditions for the production of the future deliverable.
Production consent. Terms of production that are approved by both the Customer and the developers, including the scope, schedule and budget of the work. The consent can take two forms:
1. Contract. A legally binding agreement between the Customer and a contractor for the production of a product.
2. Standard operating procedure (SOP). A detailed description of the procedures required for production of the deliverable.
A valid consent must include deliverable acceptance criteria as well as either:
1. schedule and budget.
2. the principles by which the terms and costs of work will be determined.
Deliverable acceptance criteria should reflect the scope of work.

Status reports

While working on the deliverable, the Coords are expected to report their project status. In CNM Agile framework, these statuses are reported at the product line wikipage, CNM Cloud Usable, using the following readiness levels for each Product state and Device of certainty:

Not started. Project work on the corresponding Product state and Device of certainty hasn't started yet.
In progress. Project work on the corresponding Product state and Device of certainty has been started, but the state/device has not yet been submitted for the approval.
Cancel. Project work on the corresponding Product state and Device of certainty has been cancelled.
Submitted. Project work on the corresponding Product state and Device of certainty has been submitted for the approval.
Done. Project work on the corresponding Product state and Device of certainty has been approved. With exceptions of the state of certainty, the Customer approves the status. With regard to the state of certainty, its approval also requires the developer's consent.

Project factors

Administrators at Cyber

For the purposes of this very wikipage, administration is defined as the set of endeavors undertaken to run something. At the Cyber, several types of administrators can be distinguished depending on the category of that "thing":

CNM Cyber administrators are those of the Personnel who manage the Cyber's development, operations, and product groups. The project manager is the CNM Cyber administrator by default; he or she can appoint other members of the Personnel to administer a particular group of developments, operations and products or the Cyber as a whole.
Product administrators are those of the Personnel whom CNM Cyber administrators have granted administration of a particular product. During its production, the deliverables are administered by the Coords. The superior administrator of each product is at least one of the CNM Cyber administrators.
Application administrators are administrative user roles in CNM apps. For example, an administrator of CNM Wiki can protect select wikipages from editing by non-admins. Application administrators are a software feature, which only system administrators may assign. Organizationally, CNM Cyber administrators must request assigning admin roles to select members of the Personnel and, vice versa, request removing them when there is no longer need.
System administrators are dedicated positions intended for those associates who administer the technological systems of CNM Farms', Opplet's, and CNM apps' software. The highest administrator of each attachment is at least one of the system administrators, so the latter can be described as super administrators of applications.

Customer

The customer provides requirements for future products and pays project budgets. In simple words, the customer orders products and pays for their production. The work of the Coord is paid insofar as it is part of the development of the product. The customer implies that the Coord works out projects in accordance with the instructions set out on this wikipage. Out of the goodness of heart and for professional training purposes, the customer may do the work of the Coord temporarily as long as the customer believes that the Coord will someday be able to work independently.

Personnel

Coords or coordinators contribute to the implementation of projects by acting in accordance with the What Coords do section.
System administrators ensure the stability of the Cloud's operations and advise on technological developments.
Recruiters ensure that the recruiting process is in place, there are candidates for Coords and, with the approval of the Customer, for other full-time positions in the recruiting "pipeline", and also advise on those developments that relate to recruiting. In their projects, the Coords also play the role of recruiters and take over the hiring of contractors. Unlike recruiters, the Coords discuss requirements and other project documents with candidates. The Coords turn to recruiters in cases where their own competencies or resources are not enough to attract contractors.
Project manager is responsible for resolving administrative, personnel, financial, legal and organizational issues. In particular, the manager assigns projects to the Coordinators, places advertisements for hiring contractors, gives the coordinators recruiter access and pays the project budgets. The manager can be called a "super-coordinator". If the coordinator works on one project, which he himself chooses, the manager is responsible for the entire group of developments and operations, including finance, personnel, administration of the Coords, and so on. At the moment, the head is replaced by the Customer, but he does it temporarily, before such a person or people are found.

Although contractors are not formally part of the project staff, they are an important part of project development.

Durations

The Coords work on one project, usually up to three and, in exceptional cases, up to five weeks.

In the first week, they shall get familiarized with the project. At the end of the familiarization, the Coord should be able to explain what is described on the relevant wikipages and be ready to discuss its Sprint Zero with the Customer.
From the second week to the penultimate week, they facilitate the project work in accordance with the What Coords do section.
In the final week, they close the project or project part, documenting their work and the data that was uncovered during that work.

Projects can overlap. For example, the last week of work on one project may be the first week of work on another project. For senior Coords, there are no restrictions.

Contractor hiring factors

How not to hire

Here is an example of how the Coord should not hire contractors:

We find a person or several people who agree to take on this development and speak, write, look well, get in touch on time, respond quickly, and so on.
We contact (preferably by phone) to clarify their requirements for payment and promises on terms.
We award the contract to the one or the one who offers the best conditions, and let the others know in a polite and respectful way.

How to hire

Here is an example of how the Coord should hire contractors:

Know the criteria that determine the state of certainty.
Check if the state of certainty has been reached for the deliverable under development.
If the state of certainty:
- Not achieved, check whether the resources available to the Coord without the involvement of external consultants have been exhausted. If resources are exhausted, look for external resources, such as advertising for consultants or trying to find contractors to help achieve this state. If both internal and external resources are exhausted, but the state has not been reached, issue an additional project, making the contract its desired product.
- Achieved, proceed further according to the How not to hire section; after completing the previous points, it makes sense.

The contract must include a description of what we are to receive that satisfies measurable eligibility criteria, as well as when and for how much we will receive it. If something from the three "scope of work, terms, budget" is not defined, then we will get what we need in one case out of 100. In 99 other cases, we will get either what we do not need, or for that money , which we do not count on, or when we no longer need it.

Contractors' interviews

Hiring people is a great way to learn about aspects of a project and the resulting product. Perfectly conducted interviews add to the documentation for CNM Wiki.

Contractor applications

We can publish received applications, but we do not publish the names of contractors, as they did not give us permission to publish. From a legal point of view, we cannot publish the confidential information of our contractors.

Coords' recruitment

There is no single simple indicator by which one can judge whether a person can become a successful Coord and, if so, whether similar jobs would attract and motivate him or her. One never knows unless one tries. The Cyber provides everyone with opportunities to:

Get trained to start working in an entry-level position. Three courses, (a) CNM Cyber Welcome Session, (b) CNM Cyber Orientation, and (c) CNM Cyber Placement are designed to provide the learners with theoretical knowledge.
Start working in an entry-level position of the Coord in order to get introduced to various professions practically.
Identify the target profession and further continue with professional preparation.

Coords' sourcing

Main wikipage: WorldOpp Sourcing

WorldOpp Sourcing encompasses the WorldOpp Outreach campaigns to attract attention of potential candidates and CNM Cyber Welcome Session to bring the candidates on the board.

Coords' orientation

Main wikipage: CNM Cyber Orientation

The CNM Cyber Orientation is designed to introduce promising Coords to the job market, the Cyber, its team, services, and the Cloud.

Coords' placement

Main wikipage: CNM Cyber Placement

The CNM Cyber Placement is designed to introduce the learners to various positions, help to select the promising one, and place the learner as an apprentice into both the job and educational program. In their practice, the learners work as the Coords.

The Coord is a temporary position, limited by the duration of the internship. Not everyone is attracted to work on creating something new. Not everyone is able to work in conditions of uncertainty.

If the job of the Coord suits the participant, he or she moves towards the business analyst, systems engineer, partner coordinator, event organizer, information structure or solution creator, product or user experience designer, and product, information resources or development manager, and other occupations in projects.
If unable or unwilling, the participant is promoted to Contract or Systems Administrator, Usability Analyst, Accountant, Graphic Designer, Operations Engineer, Purchasing, Account Manager, and Procurement Manager and other occupations in operations.

During the CNM Cyber Placement course, students should be introduced to different professions from a programmer to an accountant. The specialty will be selected based on the results of the practice, and then it will be necessary to select a curriculum with a partner and organize an internship. We hope to organize the internship ourselves, but it will be difficult to replace educational institutions. Nothing unreal is foreseen, but everything needs to be worked out. Until the third course is ready, the Coords can work on it.
