Training and Development

Programmes shaped around the people who need them

Stanway Hope provides security training and development designed to help individuals and teams improve their understanding of cyber and information security and apply that knowledge within their roles. Training can be aligned to the needs of an organisation, team or audience, helping participants develop knowledge that supports professional development and organisational security objectives.

We offer training and development programmes to meet individual client needs. Content can be shaped around the customer's objectives, audience and existing level of knowledge, so learning focuses on the security challenges most relevant to the people undertaking it, rather than a single off-the-shelf course.

Training programmes we deliver

These four programme types are the concrete offering. Each is tailored to the audience rather than copied from a public catalogue.

Information Risk Management Training

Build understanding of how information risk is identified, assessed and managed, for people who own or contribute to those decisions.

Security Specialist Development

Development programmes for security specialists who need to deepen or broaden the skills they use in role.

Security Awareness Briefings

Briefing programmes that raise awareness of security responsibilities across a wider audience, not only the security team.

Operational Security Briefings

Briefings focused on how security is carried out in operation, so practice on the ground matches the intent of policy and design.

How we can help

Shape the learning around the audience, the role and the security work people are expected to support.

Security awareness

Help audiences understand security responsibilities, common risks and the role individuals play in protecting information and services.

Role-based development

Support learning that reflects the security knowledge required for particular responsibilities or areas of work.

Technical security development

Develop understanding of relevant technical security concepts and their application within systems and services.

Risk and assurance knowledge

Develop understanding of security risk management, assurance and associated activities.

Tailored learning

Adapt training to the audience, organisational context and required learning objectives.

Knowledge transfer

Help teams develop internal understanding through structured learning and engagement with security practitioners.

What this helps you achieve

Training is useful when people can apply it in the work they already do.

Understanding

Clearer security knowledge

Improved understanding of cyber and information security, matched to the audience rather than a generic syllabus.

Application

Greater confidence in applying knowledge

Greater confidence in applying relevant security knowledge within the responsibilities people already hold.

Responsibility

Individual responsibilities understood

Better understanding of individual security responsibilities, including beyond the security team.

Capability

Capability built inside the organisation
