PLEASE REMEMBER that a significant amount of money can be saved by conducting these Workshops "in-house", at your private, equipped training facility. You may choose either a two, three, four, or five day format to suit the needs of your Management and Staff and tailor the program to your requirements. A minimum of thirty persons are required and you can invite outside organizations of your choosing. We have presented these to government and commercial organizations with great success. This is the most cost-effective way to increase the security awareness of your Management and Staff and provide them with the knowledge required to prevent a wide range of information security and control problems. Please contact us and we would be pleased to discuss the various options.
