WHY CHOOSE THIS QUALIFICATION?

  • Employer-led and UK-aligned: Content mapped to recognised guidance (e.g. NCSC Cyber Aware / Cyber Essentials) with a clear focus on human-factor risk.

  • Short, focused delivery: Two-day, single-unit structure. Ideal for induction or refresher training with minimal timetable disruption.

  • Practical, non-technical: Learners build everyday behaviours (phishing awareness, strong pass-phrases, MFA, reporting) they can use immediately.

  • Clear and manageable assessment: Unambiguous criteria; simple evidence (checklists, brief responses, tutor observation); pass-only grading.

  • Moderation on demand: Fast, constructive feedback with direct access to TLM QA for guidance with no restrictive windows.

  • Robust tracking: The online TLM Centre Management makes it easy to monitor progress, standardise, and capture evidence.
