Greetings,

REN-ISAC[1] and the Multi-State ISAC[2] are happy to announce an 
opportunity for higher education institutions to acquire the SANS 
Securing The Human Program at a substantially discounted cost. 
Securing The Human provides extensive employee security awareness 
training that targets today's weakest link in enterprise security - the
human.

Nineteen online training modules cover topics such as social 
engineering, using e-mail safely, smartphone security, and FERPA. A 
full list of the modules is included in the attached document that 
describes the offering. Each module includes an online assessment. 
Student progress through the program can be tracked via a site 
administration web interface.

The special pricing is a time-limited opportunity. There is a 45-day 
commitment window from May 1 to June 15 during which each purchasing 
organization must supply a letter of intent with the number of seats 
they guarantee to purchase. The letter must be signed by an authorized 
purchaser. Organizations will have until July 30, 2011 to process 
their payment or purchase order. The pricing target is $1.15 per seat, 
based on an anticipated aggregate of 200,000 seats combined in state, 
local, territorial, and educational institution purchases.

To introduce the offer, a flyer is attached, and REN-ISAC will host a 
webcast for higher education institutions on Wednesday May 4 at 1:00pm 
EDT. The webcast will provide opportunity for interactive Q&A. The 
webcast requires Adobe Flash on the viewing computer. Details are at:

http://www.ren-isac.net/programs/sth2011/

If you're unable to make it to the live webcast, an archive will be 
available for viewing, at the same web link.

If you have questions after reviewing the attached flyer and viewing 
the webcast, please contact Julie Evans at info () msisac org
