Lunch & Learn: Trauma Awareness Training for Cyber Security Professionals

In partnership with PTSD Resolution

Over half of cyber security professionals are impacted by work stress. The constant vigilance, the pressure of knowing a single mistake could compromise critical infrastructure, and the relentless pace of emerging threats, it all takes its toll.

We’ve partnered with PTSD Resolution (Charity No. 1202649) to bring specialist mental health training directly to our membership. Their TATE programme – Trauma Awareness Training and Education – has been specifically adapted for the cyber security sector.

Lunch & Learn: Introduction to Trauma Awareness
