To add to the academic programs - 

CU Boulder has an excellent telecom program for network security and network 
engineering; one of their courses focuses solely on SP networks (full 
disclosure: I am a CU Boulder alumnus).

1. Start with one or more engineers who aren't "fresh".  This is more 
expensive, potentially much more expensive, but it's much more likely to result 
in success than trying to feed a crash course in security into the brains of 
people who've never done any of this before.  Even if all those experienced 
people do is stop you from making well-known mistakes, then the investment will 
be more than worth it.

2. I see that several academic programs were mentioned downthread; one that I'd 
add to the list is UMBC, which is excellent.
