Cybersecurity Training for Employees: Upskill the Easy Way with CSA Team Training Programs
Blog Article Published: 07/23/2024
The cost and challenge of finding cybersecurity talent is nothing new. Equally challenging is ensuring all stakeholders across your organization have the knowledge they need to stay safe online. The best solution we’ve found is to train up your existing teams, providing:
- Solid security foundations and cybersecurity awareness for non-technical stakeholders.
- Knowledge of the latest tools and strategies for the technical talent that you’ve already invested in.
- An aligned security language for everyone in your organization.
CSA has been helping groups of security professionals undergo cloud security training for over 15 years. Tens of thousands of professionals and hundreds of organizations have taken advantage of our team training. We offer two content options: Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) and Certificate of Competence in Zero Trust (CCZT). Adding even more flexibility, we also offer several format options.
CSA's cybersecurity training programs provide the expertise your organization needs to stay secure. Below, learn more about the security courses and training packages CSA offers and how they can meet your needs.
Overview of Team Training Benefits
CSA’s team trainings are designed to:
- Fill your information security skills gaps.
- Meet your staff training needs with exactly what fits your requirements and budget.
- Align all stakeholders with a common security language and understanding.
- Help your staff work toward training completion with deadlines and regular touchpoints.
- Improve learning and comprehension with study group and trainer interaction.
- Certify your team members, recognizing their expertise and mastery of the materials.
- Allow your team to apply their new knowledge to real-world issues as soon as possible.
Certificate of Cloud Security Knowledge (CCSK) Training
Optimize the protection of the cloud infrastructure you rely on or provide. CCSK training gives your staff a solid foundation of cloud security knowledge. After completing the course, your staff can also take the CCSK exam to earn a professional certificate.
Think of CCSK training like introduction classes in university. It provides a broad overview of cloud security and highlights specific areas where you can dig deeper.
Certificate of Competence in Zero Trust (CCZT) Training
Successfully architect and implement Zero Trust security within your organization with CCZT team training. Similar to the CCSK, a CCZT exam is available after the course so students can demonstrate their knowledge.
CCZT does not call for any official work experience or prior requirements. However, it’s helpful for participants to have a basic grounding in cloud security. CCSK is an excellent precursor to CCZT.
Available Training Formats
Training needs are not one-size-fits-all. To meet the specific needs and budget of your organization, we offer team training in several formats. Any of the following formats are available for both CCSK and CCZT.
Self-Paced Study
You can purchase an exam pack for your team to study by themselves by reading the training material. Or, for a more engaging learning process, you can also purchase a pack of self-paced online training. Both of these options are cost-effective and provide a great deal of flexibility.
Most often, we organize your team into cohorts or study groups of 10-25 people. These groups meet regularly to discuss the material. This helps students keep a schedule, facilitates knowledge sharing, and aligns your team.
Instructor-Led
Get the most out of your team training by having an expert teach the content live. We offer both virtual and in-person options. Instructor-led training courses are best for organizations that want expert instruction and a high level of interaction.
With a live instructor, we can also tailor the training content to your organization. Our trainers adjust their instruction based on what would be useful to the job roles present in the training. Based on the specific pain points in your organization, our trainers can emphasize those areas as well. For instance, our trainers can teach your procurement team how to build contracts for cloud service providers.
Custom Bundles
If none of the above sounds quite right, customized training packages are available as well. We'll work with you to address all of your requirements.
CSA Member Discount
CSA corporate members receive access to numerous benefits, including team training discounts of up to 40% off, depending on the scope of the training. When your organization becomes a CSA member, your entire team will be equipped with the latest cloud security knowledge, as well as exclusive access to industry experts, enhanced trust between cloud consumer and provider, increased brand awareness, and much more.
