Immersive challenges. Expert guidance. Skills that carry into the workplace.

Break out of
tick-box training.

Most cyber awareness training asks people to click through, pass a quiz and move on. The Cyber Innovation Academy gives teams something to remember.

Hosted at Wrexham University, each experience combines academic expertise, real-world industry practice and the energy of a genuinely immersive away day.
