Understand · practise · pass it on

Learn to act in the real digital world.

IBCSC provides accessible workshops, supervised scenarios and technical learning pathways. Each format starts with the audience, its everyday reality and a concrete outcome: better protection, an effective first response, methodical operations or the ability to teach sound habits.

Content, duration and exercises are confirmed before delivery. Places, equipment and trainers depend on the capacity actually available.

No needless jargonTechnical terms are explained through situations people can recognise.
Supervised practiceExercises use safe examples or a fully isolated learning lab.
Built for the audienceAge, level, language, accessibility and working context are considered.
A concrete next stepEvery session ends with identified actions, resources or skills.

A suitable starting point for every audience.

A citizen workshop, a classroom and an IT team do not have the same needs. Content, pace and technical depth are designed accordingly.

Describe the need

Choose by objective, not by trend.

A useful intervention connects a lived situation with an observable action. Topics are selected according to what the participant must genuinely be able to do afterwards.

Prevent

Recognise risks, configure essential protections and reduce repeated mistakes.

A prioritised action list fitted to the context.

Detect

Inspect a message, request, domain or behaviour before making a decision.

A simple and repeatable verification method.

Respond

Simulate the first minutes after a compromised account, fraud or data loss.

A response sheet and identified guidance channels.

Operate

Install, document, monitor and restore an isolated learning environment.

A technical mini-project that can be explained and handed over.

Teach

Adapt an explanation, prepare an exercise and set clear boundaries around one’s role.

Reusable material and a session outline.
Learning lab table with Linux workstations, network equipment, a server and a local computing station
Ages 15 to 25 · free participation

Four pathways that make technology tangible.

IBCSC pathways give pupils, students and young people choosing a direction a structured first experience of the jobs that keep digital services running. The lab remains separate from every production environment.

Explore the four pathways

Isolated learning equipment: configurations and availability depend on the equipment and partners mobilised.

A duration that matches the ambition.

A talk can trigger awareness. It does not replace a workshop, and a workshop does not replace a pathway. The format follows the expected outcome.

01

Discovery session

One focused topic, examples and time for questions.

Duration
45 to 75 min
Group
Up to a room
Understand and identify the next action.
02

Practical workshop

Demonstration, guided exercises and a shared debrief.

Duration
90 min to 3 h
Group
Small or medium group
Apply a simple method independently.
03

Supported pathway

Several sessions, progression, personal work and a final project.

Duration
4 to 10 weeks
Group
Limited cohort
Build and explain a demonstrable outcome.
04

Professional intensive

Work-related cases, qualified entry level and reusable documentation.

Duration
1 to 3 days
Group
Focused team
Make the team more autonomous within a defined scope.

A learning method visible before, during and after.

Participants should know why an exercise matters, what they can reuse and where their new skills stop.

  1. 01

    Scope

    Audience, level, objectives, language, accessibility, group size and technical constraints are clarified.

  2. 02

    Explain

    The trainer connects the concept to a real situation and distinguishes facts, assumptions and recommendations.

  3. 03

    Practise

    The group observes, handles or decides in a safe setting, with room to make mistakes and try again.

  4. 04

    Handover

    Learning, boundaries, resources and next actions are summarised in material suited to the format.

Train a team through the work it actually does.

Professional formats serve nonprofits, small organisations, support teams, managers and educators. Content is prepared after a level-setting exchange and remains limited to the confirmed scope.

  • Cyber awareness
  • Phishing and social engineering
  • Responsible AI at work
  • Linux, infrastructure and DevOps
  • Management briefings
  • Train-the-trainer

Prepare a session without losing time.

A precise request helps identify the right format and quickly establish what can be delivered with the trainers, venue and equipment available.

Present a request

Information to provide

  • Audience and age range
  • Number of participants
  • Primary objective
  • Level or prerequisites
  • Venue, language and accessibility
  • Dates and available equipment

What scoping confirms

  • Learning objectives
  • Schedule and duration
  • Each party’s role
  • Equipment and temporary accounts
  • Material provided
  • Price, free access or partner funding

Learn without exposing people or systems.

The learning framework protects participants, organisations and third parties. It also applies to AI and cybersecurity demonstrations.

  • No access to a real system without written authorisation and an explicit scope.
  • Technical exercises use an isolated lab and temporary accounts.
  • Personal, confidential or production data is not used in AI exercises.
  • Content is adapted to age and any vulnerability of the audience.
  • A participation certificate is not an official degree, certification or employment promise.
  • The trainer states the format’s boundaries and refers people to a professional or official channel when necessary.

Frequently asked questions.

What to know before suggesting a group or a session.

Is youth training genuinely free?

The four technical pathways have no participation fee for young people aged 15 to 25, subject to places, equipment, trainers and funding. An application and parental consent for minors may be required.

Does IBCSC issue an official diploma or certification?

No. A participation certificate and a record of practised skills may be provided. They do not replace a recognised degree, professional certification or qualifying programme.

Can a school request content adapted to a class?

Yes. Level, age, available time, learning objectives and accessibility needs are reviewed with the teaching team before content is confirmed.

Do cybersecurity workshops include offensive testing?

Demonstrations remain defensive and use prepared examples or an isolated lab. No third-party or production system is tested without specific written authorisation.

Is professional training paid?

A scope and price are confirmed before delivery. Shared or social-rate formats may be considered for some nonprofits, schools or public-interest initiatives, subject to available capacity.

Can we offer a trainer, venue or equipment?

Yes. IBCSC reviews contributions for usefulness, safety and compatibility with the organisation’s independence. Responsibilities and use conditions are formalised before the activity.
