Cyber threats to further education are no longer hypothetical; they are increasing in scale, sophistication, and impact.
Join this webinar to learn practical tips, expert insight and real examples to help protect learner data, prevent cyberattacks and safeguard assessment integrity.
This session brings together national law‑enforcement intelligence, technical expertise, and sector‑led best practice. The City of London Police, who operates the UK’s new Report Fraud service (replacing Action Fraud from December 2025), will share first‑hand insight into the most prevalent cyber threats currently affecting colleges and training providers, alongside evidence‑based guidance on how organisations can reduce their exposure to risk.
You’ll also hear from Redpalm Technology Services, who will explain why Cyber Essentials is one of the most effective and achievable routes to improving cyber‑resilience in education, giving you a practical understanding of recognised security standards and the tangible steps required to strengthen institutional protection.
The session will include Nelson and Colne College, showcasing their journey to achieving CyberFirst Gold status. This will bring cyber resilience to life, demonstrating what strong practice looks like in an FE setting and the real impact of building cyber awareness across the whole organisation, including how the Gateway Qualifications Level 1 Award in Cybersecurity Awareness can support staff and learners alike.
The webinar will conclude with a live Q&A, giving you the opportunity to raise challenges specific to your organisation and leave with clear, achievable actions to strengthen your cyber resilience.
If you are responsible for governance, risk, data protection, or organisational leadership, this session will equip you with the insight and confidence needed to act.
