As Dave Nozal, director of information technology at Propel Nonprofits likes to say, “Cybersecurity is a life skill.” Register now for this fast-paced review of need-to-know trends in cybersecurity that will help prepare you for a safe and secure future. Topics to be covered include AI, ransomware, cyber insurance, and practical approaches for nonprofits to transform their digital practices for good.

Spotlights are day-long virtual trainings, offering four to five 60-minute sessions, each exploring a different aspect of a specific topic. Each session will be led by experienced nonprofit leaders and subject-matter experts. Spotlights are designed to offer practical information that can be applied immediately along with larger-picture questions and possibilities to consider for the long-term.

We know it’s difficult to carve out large chunks of time in your day to attend trainings, so we’ve spread the sessions out over a full day, with breaks in between. You will have access to the session recordings for three months!

This Spotlight is curated by Dave Nozal and will be hosted by Elizabeth Appel and Teresa Bettman of Propel Nonprofits in partnership with the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits.
