"My favorite aspect of CyberNut, taking it from an educator perspective, is the fast and simple micro-training, as opposed to long video training and the quizzes that can be frustrating and very time-consuming. The CyberNut staff has gone above and beyond to support our district, and this training has already created a culture of great awareness across the entire district"

"What I like about Cybernut versus KnowBe4 is that CyberNut is K12 focused. Instead of a 30-minute training module that we know people aren't going to be doing, CyberNut delivers short, gamified micro-trainings. It allows people to compete and collect acorns on a leaderboard. It changes the conversation from 'I have to do this' to 'do I get to do this?'"
