Educational Partnerships
The Educational Institutions Partnership Program draws on SANS Institute’s mission to ensure InfoSec practitioners in critical education organizations have the skills needed to protect networks and sensitive data and enhance cybersecurity readiness and response. This program offers both security awareness and online technical training courses to qualifying educational institutions at substantial cost savings.
Through the SANS aggregate buy program, you can get the training you need, at an affordable cost, and improve your organization's security posture against ransomware, phishing, and other cyber-attacks.
Special discounts are available to all qualifying organizations during our next aggregate purchase window, June 1, 2024 – July 31, 2024.
