Cluster: New Faculty/Staff Orientation and Development

The objective of this learning cluster is to communicate classes, events, and resources to assist you as you embark on your career at RIT. To accomplish this, we provide information on how to register for new employee orientation offerings, as well as to provide links to courses listed in the other learning clusters that are particularly relevant and recommended for those new to the RIT community.

Topics:

Digital Self Defense

Is the Internet becoming more and more of a jungle? Are you tired of dealing with Spyware? Viruses? Phishing? Do you still feel safe driving the Information Superhighway? How do you know if your computer is really protected?
