Online Safety Training for Charities
Online safety training for charities is short, plain-English cyber awareness training for charity staff, trustees and volunteers. CyberSafe Coach+ delivers it as a free 5-minute team safety check followed by weekly bite-size tasks, with progress evidence you can share with funders and the Charity Commission. Eligible UK charities can apply for fully funded access through CyberSafe Foundation CIC.
Why do charities need cyber security training?
Charities hold sensitive information about donors, beneficiaries and volunteers, and attackers know it. Most incidents don't start with clever hacking; they start with a convincing email or a reused password. A little awareness goes a long way.
Our approach focuses on the few habits that quietly prevent most problems: spotting suspicious messages, using a password manager, and knowing what to do if something feels off.
How long does charity cyber awareness training take?
We replace once-a-year training with small, weekly nudges your team can fit around a busy day. Each task takes a few minutes, builds a real habit, and tracks progress so trustees can see where you stand.
