### Build a Security-Aware Organization with Targeted Training

Security threats evolve daily, and your team's knowledge needs to keep pace. This **Security Training Needs Assessment Form** helps IT security managers and compliance officers identify exactly what training your organization needs, map requirements to specific roles, and track certifications—all in one structured workflow.

Whether you're conducting annual security audits, responding to new compliance requirements, or building a proactive security awareness program, this template creates a clear picture of your team's current capabilities and training gaps.

#### Why IT teams choose Paperform for security assessments

Security assessments require precision, organization, and follow-through. Paperform's conditional logic lets you customize the assessment based on department, role, and seniority—showing only relevant questions to each respondent. No more one-size-fits-all surveys that waste time and miss critical details.

Once submissions come in, you can use **AI Insights** to quickly identify common skill gaps across teams, spot trends in certification needs, and generate reports for leadership without manual analysis. Your assessment data automatically syncs with tools like Airtable, Google Sheets, or your HR system, giving you a real-time view of training needs.
