Traditional cybersecurity training often misses the mark with busy educators and staff. In this engaging and practical session, Bill Stein shares how storytelling, creativity, humor, and human connection can transform security awareness from a compliance requirement into something people actually remember and even enjoy.

Discover the origin and impact of CyberShorts, a storytelling approach that turns real world cyber incidents into short, relatable narratives designed to spark conversation and change behavior. Along the way, attendees will explore strategies for building a stronger security culture, increasing staff engagement, and creating awareness programs that resonate with today’s schools and organizations.

And because no good conference session should stop at just one topic, Bill will also sprinkle in a few “tasty nuggets” including practical insights, leadership lessons, communication ideas, and creative engagement strategies gathered from decades in K12 technology leadership.

Expect real stories, actionable ideas, a few laughs, and plenty of takeaways you can bring back to your own district or organization immediately.
