1. Analyze

What is the learning need? The main need for this learning is to subject employees to training on how to manage cyber threats within the organization. The rate of cyber threats has increased, and therefore it is important to develop proactive measures to protect the organization (Ross, 2019).

Who are your learners? What are their backgrounds? What do they already know? My learners are the organization’s employees. They understand their responsibilities within the organization. For instance, they know it is their duty to ensure they have achieved the organization's objectives.

What do the learners need to know? Summarize the content of your training program. Employees will get to know dozens of things at the end of this training. First, they will know the main cyber threats the organization is likely to face. Secondly, they will learn how to prevent these threats from occurring (Ross, 2019). For example, they will learn how to examine software and determine whether viruses infect them, install firewalls in the computer system, and store data in the cloud, among others.

Delivery/Resources/Timeline. What is the delivery method? What resources will you need? What is your timeline? There are two strategies I will use to deliver the training. The first method is a physical interview whereby I will interact with the trainees. Secondly, I will use virtual training for those who cannot attend a physical interview. In order to deliver the interview, resources such as internet connection, computers, and writing materials (Ross, 2019). The training program will run for one week.

2. Design

Outcomes. At the end of the training, the learners will be able to: 1) run antivirus software in the computer system to detect whether viruses have infected the system. 2) Develop antivirus software. 3) Install a firewall in the system in order to prevent unauthorized access. 4) Update computer software (Ross, 2019).

Instructional methods. Describe activities and how learners will engage with the material: learners will engage with training resources through practicing using computers. For example, they will use computers to develop firewall software which they will later install in the system to enhance the system's security.

Assessment: What can the learners do/show/present/submit to show they have learned the content? There are several things that learners will do to show they have learned the content. First, they will install software on the computer system 2) Install firewall 3) Penetration testing to determine whether the software developed has weaknesses or not 4) Run antivirus software in the system to eliminate threats such as viruses. Once the learners are able to do these things, it shows they have achieved the training’s objective

3. Develop

This is where you will actually develop the material that goes into your course. Include at least:

1. Overview or introduction

2. Content of course

3. Assessment

4. Opportunity for learner feedback

4. Implement

This is where you will upload the content and materials into your Articulate Rise trial.

This will be considered your PROTOTYPE.

Here you will also CALIBRATE by asking 2-3 colleagues to go through your course and give you feedback (also known as USABILITY TESTING).

5. Evaluate

How will you evaluate the effectiveness of your training program?
