I offered to set this up for my company (it’s not that hard) but nah, they went with telling everyone to click on a link to an unfamiliar site to learn about why they shouldn’t click on links to unfamiliar sites.
Then you are still trusting people to hover the link before clicking which from what I’ve seen isn’t the best. Though there is the added benefit of using this as additional training to hover…
The correct solution to this is to have the training emails say to log in to take the training, no link in the email at all
