I help companies large and small replace checkbox security training with programs that change behavior.
Most security training gets completed. Very little of it changes anything. I’ve built my career around closing that gap.
I’m Dr. Jerrod Pickering: educator, IT audit veteran (CISA), former school superintendent, and author of The People Problem and The People Solution. I’ve helped certify about 2,400 practitioners across six continents, and I design programs around how people actually learn, not how compliance calendars work.
I’m also a PECB Certified ISO/IEC 42001 Lead Implementer, so I help teams turn AI governance from a policy binder into everyday practice, with training that makes responsible AI use second nature.
Ask me about: security awareness that sticks, training design, AI risk frameworks, and measuring real behavior change.
Book an introductory private video call to get personalized advice and guidance.
60-minute working session on one problem: training that isn’t landing, a program redesign, or how to measure behavior change
I review your current security awareness program (content, cadence, metrics), then give a written scorecard and a 45-minute debrief with the top fixes
