Cybersecurity and how we protect our own and others' sensitive information is becoming a top priority for schools who have increasingly been paying a real price for not acting sooner as more and more serious breaches within education have been revealed. Has your district or one you've heard of been scammed? Most likely yes; in this course, you will find out. Security breaches are most commonly due to human error, and increasingly, teachers and other educational staff members have become targets of cybercriminals. This course is ideal for all educators, teachers, principals, paraprofessionals, and other educator support specialists, to learn how to be proactive and ultimately avoid becoming a victim of a cybercrime in one's own life and also in one's position as an educator. This course will help you become aware of your own role in keeping the data you access safe in your position as an educator; no tech degree required!
