Element K content is completely customizable and ready for use on almost any platform. With a generation of baby-boomers about to retire, and a highly regulated environment, government agencies require effective, targeted training now more than ever. Almost every government organization is facing an increasing number of cyber-security threats and must ensure the safety of employee data and their internal networks by training staff on the the latest security certifications, such as the DOD Directive 8570.1. Managers at every level are being challenged to hone or increase their leadership skills so that their organizations can become more strategic and innovative. This training often takes the form of an online and classroom blended learning approach. | |

DoD Directive 8570.1 requires that all individuals with privileged access to a DoD Information System be properly trained and certified in the secure operation of computer systems used throughout the DoD's Global Information Grid. This directive affects more than 100,000 personnel, including full- and part-time military service members, civilians, foreign nationals, local nationals, and contractors. DoD Directive 8570.1 requires military service and defense agencies to formally identify all personnel with responsibility for any aspect of Information Assurance. The agencies must ensure that each worker has the appropriate certifications required for positions within a new organizational structure as established by the DoD. All affected personnel must achieve certification within a four-year period.
