Cybersecurity Awareness Training for Employees
Short, self-paced courses that teach staff to recognize phishing, resist manipulation and protect their accounts — plus the physical safety training tech offices often overlook.
People Are Part of Your Security Stack
Firewalls, endpoint tools and multi-factor authentication do a lot of work. But a convincing email, a phone call from someone claiming to be IT, or a reused password can walk an attacker past all of it. Many security incidents begin with an employee being tricked rather than a system being broken.
Cybersecurity awareness training for employees closes that gap by teaching everyone — not just the IT team — what attacks look like and what to do instead of clicking. Our courses are self-paced, available 24/7 on any device, and produce a completion record for each learner, which is useful when customers, auditors or insurers ask how you train staff.
Courses in the Cybersecurity Collection
-
Defining cybersecurity
The basics: what attackers want, why every employee is a target, and the habits that protect company data.
-
Email phishing
Spotting spoofed senders, urgent requests, fake invoices and look-alike links before acting on them.
-
Social engineering
Pretext calls, tailgating, impersonation and other ways attackers manipulate trust.
-
Malware basics
How malicious software arrives, warning signs of infection, and what to report.
-
Ransomware
How ransomware spreads, why speed of reporting matters, and the employee's role in containment.
-
Using strong passwords
Passphrases, password managers, avoiding reuse and protecting multi-factor prompts.
Rolling Out Security Awareness Training
-
Start with everyone
Assign the cybersecurity basics, phishing and password courses to every employee, including executives and contractors with system access.
-
Target high-risk roles
Finance, HR, help desk and front desk staff get social engineering and ransomware next, since they are frequent targets.
-
Fold it into onboarding
New hires complete the core courses before or soon after receiving credentials.
-
Refresh regularly
Reassign courses on a recurring cycle; attacker tactics change and habits fade.
Physical Safety in Technology Workplaces
Tech companies often invest heavily in digital incident response and very little in physical emergencies. Yet an office, lab or data center still needs people who can respond to a cardiac arrest, a fire or a violent intruder, and long hours at a desk bring their own ergonomic strain.
Online courses for the office
Office ergonomics, emergency and fire preparedness and electrical safety awareness suit tech teams well, including remote employees.
Live training on site
For hands-on skills we offer AHA CPR and AED certification and AVIRT-based active shooter training at your offices across Texas and neighboring states, with other locations quoted on request. Biotech and lab environments may also need biotech safety training.
Cybersecurity Training FAQs
Who should take cybersecurity awareness training?
Everyone with an email account or system access. Attackers deliberately target people outside IT, such as finance, HR and reception staff.
How often should employees retrain?
Many organizations refresh awareness training at least once a year and at onboarding. Your insurer, customers or industry rules may set a specific cycle.
Does this replace a phishing simulation program?
No. Courses teach recognition; simulations and technical controls test and reinforce it. They work best together.
Can remote employees take the courses?
Yes. Courses run in a browser on any device, anywhere in the country.
