Student Edition is a ModStore add-on option for current KnowBe4 customers. Student Edition content gives your students the tools they need to help mitigate security risks at their organization.
Creating User Groups for Student Training
For the best results, we recommend creating a user group that only includes students. Make sure to name it something easy to find, such as “Students Only.” For more detailed instructions, see our Create a Group article. If you have a Platinum or higher subscription, you can also automate this process using Smart Groups. For more information on Smart Groups, see the Smart Groups Overview article.
Creating a Security Role for Students
We recommend creating a specific, dedicated security role for managing students. For more information on security roles, see our Security Roles Guide article.
