College kicks off UK-wide national security awareness sessions

College for National Security is raising awareness of the importance of national security and training opportunities across the civil service.

A series of awareness sessions  will get underway this month to boost understanding of the College for National Security and the importance of national security across the Civil Service.

Booking is already open for the first awareness event which will be in Edinburgh on 19th March. Email cfns@cabinetoffice.gov.uk for sign-up details.

It will be followed by similar events in Cardiff, Bristol and other cities in subsequent months.

Key mission

“National security is foundational for all of the government’s key missions and that  makes our own drive to increase awareness of its importance and impact even more pressing,” said Andrew Millar, pictured, head of the College for National Security.

Online course

The College for National Security recently launched its new online course What is national security to break down barriers to understanding national security threats and to help civil servants integrate considerations related to national security into their jobs.

Each event  will feature a keynote speaker who will share insights on the importance of national security and interactive networking  sessions on topics such as AI.

The online course What is national security is available on Civil Service Learning now.
