Professional & investigative
One trainer cannot reach a district. Thirty trained people can.
Police outreach officers, NGO field staff and teachers are already asked to "do a session on cyber safety", usually with a borrowed slide deck. This course gives them the sessions we run, the method behind them (stories first, settings done live, three rules repeated), the local examples to gather, and the materials to hand out, and it ends with each participant delivering a session and getting honest feedback.

- Explain the main scams accurately and current to the month (digital arrest, UPI and OTP, loan apps, sextortion, task and trading scams), without exaggeration or jargon
- Run the live settings segment (UPI limits, WhatsApp two-step, privacy settings) with a group, including on low-end phones
- Handle disclosures, difficult questions and people in the room who have already lost money, and know when and where to refer
- Gather local examples and keep material current using official sources (I4C, cybercrime.gov.in alerts, RBI, CERT-In, state police)
- Adapt the session for language, literacy, age and venue, and measure whether it changed anything
Modules
Day 1: what to teach
The scams as they run today, the four moves, the three rules, the numbers and portals, and the facts that are commonly taught wrong.
Day 1: how to teach it
Stories before rules, recorded calls, the live settings segment, repetition, and keeping a hall of 200 engaged without slides.
Day 1: handling the room
Disclosures, victims in the audience, hostile or embarrassed participants, children and POCSO duties, and referral to 1930, 1098, 181 and the portal.
Day 2: adapting and localising
Seniors, women, students, rural first-time users; Hindi and regional languages; gathering local cases; low-literacy and low-end-phone adjustments.
Day 2: practice sessions
Each participant delivers a 15-minute segment to the group and receives structured feedback from peers and the lead trainer.
Day 2: keeping it current and measuring it
Official sources to follow, a monthly update routine, a simple pre- and post-session check, and reporting to funders or seniors.

Frequently asked questions
Do participants get to use your materials afterwards?
Yes. Participants receive editable decks, scripts, handouts and posters for the five audience types, in Hindi and English, with a licence to reproduce them for non-commercial awareness work by their organisation. We ask that the material is not sold or rebranded as a commercial product, and that the three rules and the numbers are not altered.
How do trainers keep the content current?
Scam patterns shift every few months, so we send a monthly update note for twelve months after the course with new patterns, changed numbers or portals, and corrected facts. The course also teaches a routine for checking official sources (I4C and cybercrime.gov.in alerts, RBI, CERT-In, state police handles) so trainers are not dependent on us.
Can this be run for a state police department's community outreach officers?
Yes, and it is a common request. For police audiences we add material on presenting as the police without inducing fear, on what officers can and cannot promise about recovery, and on the cases they are most often asked about. Delivery can be in Hindi, at a training institute or range headquarters, for cohorts of up to thirty.
Is there a shorter version for teachers?
Yes. A one-day version for teachers covers the student and parent sessions only, the live settings segment, handling disclosures with POCSO duties, and the practice delivery. It fits a school's staff-development day. Teachers who will also deliver to communities, or who train other teachers, should take the full two days.
