Directors responsibility and liability are a central part of the NIS2 legislation. As a board, you will be updated on digital resilience in half a day.
NIS2 requires that directors have the knowledge and skills to assess cyber security risks and measures, including the impact on their own services.
Mandatory training
Directors (board, management or management team) must demonstrably keep their cybersecurity knowledge and skills up to date and be able to prove this with a training certificate.
Responsibility of the entire board
The obligations do not only apply to the director with IT in his/her portfolio. Every member of the board must acquire and maintain the knowledge.
Make your organization cyber resilient
You don't have to become a cyber security expert. However, board involvement is essential to make your organization resilient. Learn to ask the right questions to your IT organization and suppliers.
Customized training
We organize a customized training for your entire board, adapted to your company and industry. For example as part of a permanent education day, or separately at a location organized by us.
Experienced trainers at board level
Our trainers have years of experience in cyber security and resilience; at senior management and board level.

Kan de training bij ons op kantoor worden gegeven
Our training is an in-house training, which we organise at your office. If you have an external location in mind this is also a possibility.
Can the NIS2 boardroom training be included in our permanent education day?
This is certainly possible. Please keep into account that our NIS2 boardroom training requires 3 to 4 hours. This time is needed to cover all topcis with sufficient depth. It is possible to integrate the training into your permanent educatin program.
Can other employees (which are not board members) participate?
Our training is primarily focussed on the management board, given the specific role and responsibilities under NIS2. Members of the Supervisory Board (RvT / RvC) can also participate. Additionally, it is a good idea to involve senior positions from your organization, such as the Head of IT, CISO, or Compliance. Even if they are not part of the management board, it will provide a good dialogue on digital resilience.
Scheduling half a day is difficult for my boardmembers, what are the options?
To provide sufficient depth and meet the requirements for a boardroom training, our training takes between 3 to 4 hours. A one-hour presentation or a short e-learning module is not suitable for this purpose. Please contact us for alternative scheduling (for example, two 2-hour sessions). We are happy to discuss the possibilities with you.
Is the training suitable for my organization and sector?
Our boardroom training is always tailored to the specific situation of your organization. Therefore, we schedule a preparatory meeting with you prior to the training. This allows us to place extra emphasis on key issues at hand. We will also include important sectoral topics, such as the link with BIO2 for the government or NEN 7510 in healthcare.
