QUOTES

John describes their new sales initiative: "The program is called SkillBridge, and they continue to get paid by the government while they're in this training program. And our goal is to get them placed in a sales job that matches up with what they want to do."

Jack talks about his goals for the program: "What we're doing here is really trying to take a small subset of people that are maybe entrepreneurial-minded and interested in sales and cybersecurity and want to maybe work for themself as opposed to being an employee of somebody else."
