Hello List,

I'm the Securiy Director for a large bank. After having several pen-tests and audits performed for me I see that I need 
to do more training for my users.. THis is really apparent for phishing security knowledge...

My questions:
What are aother large companies doing for training of the user base?

How often should this training take place? ( Refresher courses??? New hire training??)

How effective is CBT training of the user population using a LMS package?

Does EVERY company have some type of LMS training architecture?

Can you take an Open-Source LMS like Sakai developed my MIT and use it internally? What does this for the GPL? WHat If 
you wanted to sell the product to other companies you own??


Basically, I'm trying to figure out the best method for training my user population and enforcing my security policies 
I have created... I think an LMS system mught be the way to do it but it looks like LMS may be used mostly by colleges 
and NOT corporations???
