How to Set Up Staff Training Campaigns

Overview

Training your staff is one of the simplest ways to reduce everyday cyber risks. StrongKeep helps you roll this out in minutes — from onboarding new hires to ongoing awareness training.

Pre-requisites

Before you begin, make sure your staff list is already added. Training campaigns are sent directly to your team.


Step 1: Go to Training Campaigns

From your dashboard, go to Training → Staff Training.

You’ll see:

  • A default campaign for all staff- Onboarding

  • Recommended templates to get started quickly


Step 2: Choose a Campaign

Option A (Recommended): Use the default Onboarding campaign

This is ready out of the box — no setup needed.
Just click Continue Setup.

Option B: Start a new campaign

Pick from templates like:

  • Progressive Cyber Awareness

  • Keeping Devices Safe

  • Watching for Online Threats

  • Data & Privacy

These help you target specific risks your team faces.


Step 3: Review Campaign Summary

Before launching, you’ll see a summary of the campaign.

For the Onboarding campaign:

  • Staff participants: Automatically set to All staff

  • End date: No end date (continuous learning for new hires)

  • Purpose: Pre-filled to guide new staff on cyber basics

For other campaigns, you can usually adjust:

  • Staff group or participants

  • Campaign end date


Step 4: Preview the Training Email

StrongKeep sends each staff member a training email with their own unique link.

In this step, you can:

  • Review the email content

  • Click Send Test Email to yourself

  • Open the training link to preview the quiz experience

Each staff member will receive:

  • A personalised training link

  • A randomised set of questions based on the selected topic

This keeps training fair and prevents answer sharing.


Step 5: Launch the Campaign

Once everything looks good:

  1. Click Start Training Campaign

  2. Emails will be sent to your staff automatically

That’s it — your training is live.


Step 6: Track Progress and Results

After launching, you can monitor how your team is doing in real time.

You’ll see:

  • Overall completion rate

  • Number of staff who completed training

  • Email delivery and engagement (sent, opened, bounced)

  • Individual campaign performance


Step 7: Download Reports

You can export results anytime:

  • Campaign Report → For a single campaign

  • Overall Training Report → Across all campaigns

Reports help you:

  • Track compliance progress

  • Share results with management

  • Identify staff who need follow-up


Tips & Troubleshooting

  • No staff receiving emails?
    Make sure your staff list is populated and emails are valid.

  • Low completion rates?
    Send reminders or follow up with staff who haven’t completed training.

  • Want more targeted training?
    Use different templates for different teams or risk areas.
