To get started with your assigned training sessions, you first need to log in to your Upfort Training Portal by following this link. You will need to log in using the email address and password that you set up during your account onboarding, or you can choose to log in using Google or Microsoft.

If you would like to see all of your outstanding training courses, you can use the navigation bar on the left-hand side to navigate to the Cyber Uni tab.

Once you have navigated to the Cyber Uni tab, you'll be able to see all of your allocated courses. Each course is comprised by one or more modules, which you can track the completion by checking the number of courses completed for each course.

You can complete the course by clicking the blue continue button. This will open up a pop-up window with the latest outstanding training module. Clicking "Get Started" will being the course.

Each course will provide a training element for the highlighted subject. These training courses are a mix of written and visual information in the form of slides, diagrams, and videos. Each course is followed by a quiz to test the user's understanding of the course.

Once the user has completed their course, they just need to enter their name to certify the completion.

The user is then shown a reminder page. Once they have read through the reminders, they can click the "X" in the right hand side to close the pop-up.

The users will now be presented with their course completion badge.

They can track their badges at the top of the Cyber University tab.

Once all of the modules have been completed, the course will show as "Completed". This course will stay as completed for 365 days, at which point it will become outstanding again to ensure users are refreshing their Cyber Awareness level regularly. Users can also choose to click "Retake" at any time to run through the course again and refresh their understanding.
