This year, the learning is available to all public servants on the CSPS online catalogue through self-paced courses and events.

Step up your cyber fitness
Our friends at the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security Learning Hub and the Canada School of Public Service are helping us to stretch our cyber security muscles by launching the newly updated (and shortened) version of Discover Cyber Security (DDN235). This online self-paced course helps to build a greater awareness and understanding of the reality of cyber risks by exploring common security vulnerabilities and cyber threats, such as malware, password attacks and social engineering. Learners will recognize potential threats and how to protect themselves, their digital information, and the systems they use. Consider making this course mandatory across your organization now. At least three Deputy Ministers have done so already!
