Project scope

What is the main goal for this project?

Our company provides regular training for employees, so they are up-to-date on ethics and safety standards as well as changes within the industry. Because of our reliance on technology, we would like to update our security awareness training in particular.

We would like to work with students to determine what content should be included or updated in our current security awareness training.

This will involve several different steps for the students, including:

  • Conducting background research on security awareness in businesses.
  • Familiarizing themselves with our current security awareness training program.
  • Gathering relevant information and feedback from interviews / surveys with key stakeholders.
  • Identifying areas of improvement and recommending changes.

Bonus steps in the process would also include:

  • Assisting in the implementation of changes.

What tasks will learners need to complete to achieve the project goal?

By the end of the project, students should demonstrate:

  • Understanding of our company’s security awareness training
  • Understanding of stakeholder perspectives on the current training program
  • Recommendations for improvement

Bonus steps would include:

  • Implementing changes to our training program

Final deliverables should include

  • A 10-minute presentation.

How will you support learners in completing the project?

Students will connect directly with us for mentorship throughout the project. We will be able to provide answers to questions such as:

  • Our products and services
  • Our current training programs
  • Input on choices, problems or anything else the students might encounter.

What skills or technologies will help learners to complete the project?

In order to complete this project, students can self-teach, but it is beneficial to be familiar with:

  • Employee training programs
  • Security awareness

Again, students can complete this project without any of the prior knowledge listed here. Students will be expected to research and learn more about the above as the project goes along.
