The NERO project aims to enhance the cybersecurity posture of European SMEs. A crucial aspect of this initiative is the development and delivery of a training program designed to raise cybersecurity awareness and bridge the cybersecurity skill gap among small and medium enterprises within the European Union.
Our comprehensive curriculum covers a range of cybersecurity topics, from fundamental concepts to advanced principles, specifically tailored towards SMEs. Furthermore, specialized training sessions on NERO tools are provided to enable SMEs to seamlessly integrate these tools into their operations.
The table below presents a list of training sessions that have already been conducted throughout the project.
