Join us in April for our Live Learning session called How to Design Technology Training that Actually Works. It’s on Thurs, April 25 at 11am.

Lots of nonprofit organizations provide training for staff, volunteers, and external constituents, but few have expertise in curriculum development or training evaluation. A few simple techniques can make the difference between achieving learning objectives and falling short. This session will be a crash course in designing training that builds skill, knowledge, and confidence, and is also accessible and inclusive. There will be an introduction to learning design concepts, how-to guidelines, and a hands-on practice opportunity.

We encourage you to share this invitation with your entire staff. Many orgs use these sessions as their official routine annual/bi-annual security awareness staff training.

Join us in March for our Live Learning session called Effective Security for the Transformative Age. It’s on Tues, March 12 at 10am.

We’ll cover how to evaluate cyber risk and manage that risk by bolstering administrative controls. And what to do with the risk that remains. The truth is that there are no silver bullets in cybersecurity, which is why most organizations adopt a defense-in-depth approach. While security tools are an important part to organizational security, often overlooked are administrative controls.

We all experience technology problems, glitches, bugs, and errors occasionally. Being able to contact your friendly local IT support partner is great, but many wonder, "Are there things that I can try quickly to troubleshoot on my own and get things back up and running?" If you're the sort of person/organization that likes to do some preliminary troubleshooting when you experience a tech problem, this session is for you. We'll share some of the most common and effective troubleshooting steps that you can take, whether it be hardware, software, or cloud-based technology.

All organizations depend heavily on technology in some form or another, but establishing how technology can and should be used often falls by the wayside, opening the door to numerous problems, from org information being on a personal device to having your org's network for inappropriate personal uses. Join us as we discuss...

• What are the most critical policies to create and which are less so?

• Is there a recommended order to develop our policies in?

• What are the big considerations and decision points along the way of developing policies?

• What resources do I need to pull in or set aside in order to successfully create these policies?

• Once policies are created, what does the implementation process look like?

• What other resources can we tap into to help us with this process?
