In a digital era, when the threats of electronic attacks intertwine the fabric of our lives, both personal and professional, the ability to understand the fundamentals of cybersecurity has never been more critical. Luckily, Asian Development Bank Institute (ADBI) has taken this significant step recently providing a fully free online course in cybersecurity- there are no strings attached, no fees to pay. Intended to benefit both, this self-paced, entry-level training course is approachable enough to allow anyone, irrespective of their background and experience to learn how to secure their digital presence and obtain a verified certificate of completion.
What Makes This Course Stand Out
There are a couple things that make this course appealing and useful:
-
Time-Smart & Impactful: This practical 90-minute course can be done in a single sitting (or split over your timetable) – the time efficient option for busy people.
-
Crystal clear: The lessons employ real world examples and simple language, meaning that you do not have to be a technical expert in order to follow along.
-
Certified and credible: to your surprise, you will be awarded a digital certificate in the end complete with a QR code and a unique ID. You can include it in your LinkedIn or resume profile and increase your credibility and evidences of digital awareness.
Inside the Course
The course includes interesting and starting learning elements:
- Interactive Videos: interactive, expert-guided modules in which you learn about cybersecurity basics, such as personal data protection and cyber threat identification.
- Quick Quizzes: In every module there is a small amount of reviewing quiz to revise the learning. On the final quiz you must achieve a minimum of 8 out of 10.
- Certificate & Feedback: Once you have completed all the modules and submitted a short feedback form, your certificate will be ready to download in your account usually within 24 hours.
Who Can Join
Among the most valuable advantages of the course, one can mention its egalitarian nature:
- No entry restrictions: There is no age restriction, education requirement and no hindrance by nation of origin.
- Fully open: No sign up fees, no arcane costs, no other fees whatsoever.
- Available worldwide: Enrollment is available to anyone with an internet-enabled device: tablet, laptop, or phone, wherever in the world you may be.
- Fabulous to any learner: You are a student, a professional, an educator, a government employee or you are just someone interested in learning- you are welcome.
