Every teacher plays a crucial role in keeping digital learning environments safe. Discover cybersecurity skills relevant to your job role on this teacher-focused Be Connected!

If you’re an educator looking to enhance your digital safety and contribute to a secure learning environment, this session can start you on the right track. During this practical discussion, we’ll cover the essential cybersecurity practices every teacher should know, including recognizing phishing attempts to safeguarding sensitive information – both their students’ and their own.

We’ll also highlight practical tips and strategies that you can easily integrate into your daily routines, making cybersecurity second nature in a snap.

Be Connected is a weekly networking series from the LTC focused on facilitating open discussions about pertinent topics within Illinois’ edtech community.
