Information Security Awareness Training
Awareness Training
We all play an essential role in securing Elon University’s sensitive information. As the Elon community continues to expand its cyber reach to business partners and service providers, risks concerning unauthorized data access continue to grow. As a result, every Elon employee is required to take information security awareness training each academic year.
To ensure all eligible employees meet their awareness training requirement, instructor-led, on-demand, and customized group opportunities will be offered.
Instructor-led
Sessions are scheduled and announced monthly through the Office of Leadership and Professional Development (OLPD) and Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT). If you choose to meet your requirement through instructor-led training, you must attend at least one session each academic year. Instructor-led training can be taken virtually or in-person.
On-demand
On-demand content is also available in Moodle and can be accessed by logging into our Information Security Course. You are required to complete at least one learning path and the training confirmation form. Please read the guidelines on our Moodle site for more information about meeting your requirement through on-demand learning.
Customized Group Sessions
These are specialized awareness trainings that can be requested during department meetings which contain an information security component and customized, security-focused group meetings. If you would like customized group training for your department, please email us at infosec@elon.edu.
