Wonderful Course with detailed and concise explanation of topics
Educator explanation style is really good and Questions in between the topic helped a lot. Overall good course with practical examples and more importantly precise and concise too the point course. Thanks!
helpful, packed with advice
… Not really something I have to deal with much in my line of work to date, but I appreciated why I was asked to take the course- the explanations of scams and so on was illuminating and a good' public service' on its own I felt. Some of the questions were a little difficult to work out, particularly those with complex definitions or couched with long sentences that could in fact almost be treated as separate questions.
Frustrating
On several occasions my progress was not stored when there were internet interruption problems. Lost hours of my life repeating from the beginning wasting valuable time.
Very good

Wrong, in several places
Firstly, having 5 stars as the default entry of course rating on this survey is terrible statistics. It should default to no answer, in order not to bias responses (and failing to do so implies you intend to massage the statistics). With regards to secure passwords, the UK government (via the NCSC) now recommends a secure password be three (or more) random words, rather than the abomination of letters and numbers you suggested. The reason is that password length has a much bigger impact on secureness than swapping letters for numbers or using exclamation marks – and passwords made of actual words are much MUCH easier to remember (and thus people don't write them on postit notes stuck on the bottom of their screen). The advice your course gives is not current to NCSC guidelines.

Covers most areas. OK for the length
Maybe mention importance of monitoring and patching zero day vulnerabilities, reporting anything in the news etc to the cyber security team they may have missed. separation of passwords between home and work systems and even different systems/sites on both. A long password is not secure if used elsewhere. Home Wifi can also be insecure as any wifi can be brute forced or subject to a dictionary attack even in wpa2. If questions were an image format it would prevent people copying them as easily.
Essential information in one short course
This is a great course for all organisations to help staff and volunteers increase their awareness of cyber attacks and what can essentially be a threat from all sources.
Training was structure and delivered well
