The University of Arizona has mandatory all-employee training.  We expect department heads to enforce the requirement.  
While we have not put forward any "sticks" in this regard, we are currently at almost 100% compliance after one year 
and are getting ready to launch our refresher.  We have gotten to this point through a tremendous amount of 
communication over the past year, monthly interaction with all campus units, and by providing materials that users have 
found helps them out not only at work, but also in their home security.  You can access our materials at 
http://security.arizona.edu/infosecessentials.

I hope this helps.

Subject: [SECURITY] Awareness training and sanctions

I am researching how other institutes of higher learning approach security awareness training and what sanctions for 
bad behavior are available, like giving up credentials to phishers more than once. We've put together some online 
training and I'm trying to convince the powers that be to make it mandatory with sanctions for bad online behavior 
after having acknowledged that they received and understood the training. The trouble is figuring out what other 
institutions, especially public ones, do for training and sanctions. So how do y'all handle it?

Thanks,

Charlie
