Cybersecurity Act (Cbw) training for board members
What does the Cyber Security Act (Cbw) require of you as a board member? How do you assess cyber risks, and what measures are needed to make your organisation digitally resilient? In this training course, you will learn how to fulfil your board-level responsibilities for cybersecurity.
- SURF office in Utrecht, Moreelsepark 48
The Cybersecurity Act sets out requirements regarding the knowledge and involvement of board members in the field of cybersecurity. For example, as a board member, you must be able to assess cyber risks and set the right priorities. Completing a training course is a legal requirement for this.
That is why SURF, in collaboration with experts from education and research sectors, has developed a training course that meets the requirements of the Cbw and reflects the practical realities of education and research institutions. You will gain an understanding of the key risks and obligations and learn which questions to ask in order to make well-informed decisions.
Course structure
The course consists of four modules that alternate between theory, group discussions and practical case studies. You will receive a course handbook and assignments in advance to help you prepare for the topics and their application within your own institution. Upon completion of the course, you will receive a certificate or edubadge.
