The Capital Business Development Association (CBDA) will hold its 2nd Epic Golf Tournament Fundraising Event on Monday, September 23, 2024, at the Army Navy Country Club located at 3315 Old Lee Hwy, Fairfax, VA 22030. The net proceeds from this event will go to the CBDA Cybersecurity Scholarship Program and to cover CBDA operational expenses. CBDA is a Virginia registered federally tax-exempt non-profit organization under Internal Revenue Code 501(c)(3).

Our tournament aims to raise funds for fully funded CBDA scholarships at Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) for under-selected communities and veterans pursuing careers in Cyber Defense. In partnership with Fusion Cyber, Cisco, and leading HBCUs and Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs), we offer 24-week online/hybrid boot camps integrated into existing degree programs. These boot camps prepare students to become enterprise risk management framework (RMF) professionals, including CMMC or Security Operations Center (SOC) paid Apprentices, equipping them with certifications like Security+, CISSP, CISA, C/SA, or CEH. All donations are tax-deductible and directly support student testing and preparation.
