I’m specifically looking for a training platform like KnowBe4 that we can use to assign and track training modules to 
employees.  I’m still trying to decide what I want out of the platform which is why I asked a more broad question.  I 
would like something that covers basic information security topics including social engineering.  Ideally I’d like 
something that also has training on topics related to specific compliance such as PCI, GDPR, etc.

Hi Pete,



When mentioning an awareness system, are looking to raise awareness in a specific area, e.g., Phishing?



An Information Security Awareness program encompasses an array of educational and communication methods to raise your 
constituents' knowledge level on key security issues for the protection of their personal and the institution’s 
information assets. EDUCAUSE offers online material on establishing an Information Security Awareness Program at 
https://www.educause.edu/focus-areas-and-initiatives/policy-and-security/cybersecurity-program/resources/information-security-guide/toolkits/security-awareness-quick-start-guide



You may also consider joining the monthly EDUCAUSE Awareness and Training group, where Information Security Awareness 
professionals working in Higher ED meet to discuss best practices, processes, requirements and innovative Awareness & 
Training methods. Valerie Vogel at vvogel () educause edu<mailto:vvogel () educause edu> can send you a meeting invite 
if interested.



Please don’t’ hesitate to reach out if I can be of any assistance.



Thank you,

Wiam

Hello Everyone,



We are looking to implement an awareness training system.  I’m curious what other institutions are using and any 
recommendations on features/capabilities.  Thanks in advance.
