Training Curriculum

TEKRiSQ ONLINE EMPLOYEE CYBERSECURITY TRAINING

TEKRiSQ provides modern engaging content, laced with humor and high value. We believe in short, relative and consistent training throughout the year.

We deliver training from the world’s first psychological security company. This series of training courses and videos build upon the latest in psychological, educational, and neurological research. Not only is this content modern and highly educational, but all content contains humor and entertainment. Employees will find it crisp and stimulating.

All of our courses and videos have been reviewed by a number of cybersecurity credentialed professionals and training experts. While the field of psychological security invites researchers from all backgrounds, it currently draws upon three axioms to ground its research. The following three axioms or “pillars” are not exhaustive, but influence our work in building Security Awareness and Compliance Training Courses.

Non-Punitive Training: We focus on positive reinforcement and encouraging training that provides opportunities for correction and growth. The goal of these courses is not to trick people into discovering their shortcomings, but rather, to discover ways people can grow in their pattern recognition of manipulation through technology.
Non-Dilutive Training: We focus on exactly what people need to know, and when they need to know it. Our training courses do not attempt to cover everything security professionals need to know, but rather, we focus on exactly what people need to do to recognize manipulation in their daily lives. This approach avoids diluting the training impact by covering too much at any given time.
Non-Invasive Training: We focus on creating “memorable, shareable” content through utilizing humor to disarm and engage the audience. By basing our humorous training on the latest Social Media and Streaming approaches, we create training content that employees love to engage. No, seriously! This leads to employee engagement which avoids disrupting the workday with un-engaging, unhelpful experiences.
