The Interactive Cybersecurity Awareness Training is a story-driven learning experience developed as one of eight offerings within ESET’s human risk management training program. Designed as a single, cohesive learner journey, the course places learners in a fictional mission where they apply cybersecurity concepts, make informed decisions, and experience the consequences of their choices in a safe environment. Select the preview below to launch a sample of the learner experience.
Learning Strategy
Context drives retention. Story supplied progression and consequence, and decision points had learners identify risks, evaluate information and respond, building habits that outlast the training: slow down, question what looks familiar, recognize tactics of influence.
My Role
Working with a peer and SMEs, I led learner experience design: story, scenarios, scripting, interaction design, visual and multimedia production, project planning and SME review cycles.
Key Learning Features
Story-integrated assessments
Scaffolded, progressive missions
