AI-Powered Phishing & Social Engineering Defense Trainer Toolkit by Bodhih Training — built on programmes delivered to 2,000+ companies since 2008.
The workshop is on the calendar. The material isn’t.
Yesterday's phishing training
Template simulations and 'check for spelling mistakes' advice don't prepare anyone for fluent, personalised AI-written messages or a cloned voice on the phone. Rebuilding the content is a big job.
Awareness without behaviour
Clients have run the e-learning module. What they need is people who pause, verify and escalate under pressure — which only comes from scenario practice and a repeatable framework.
Leaders left out
Most security training treats everyone the same. Junior leaders need to protect themselves and lead their team's security culture — a different programme entirely.
Picture the evening before your programme.
Picture the opening scenario: a message that looks exactly like it came from a senior leader, with the right tone, the right project name and a plausible urgent request. You ask the room who would have acted on it. Hands go up slowly — and that honesty is where the programme starts.
Through Day 1 participants learn how AI has changed the attacker's toolkit across email, voice and video, and practise the six VERIFY steps until checking becomes a habit rather than an afterthought. Every scenario, timing and debrief is laid out in your Facilitator Guide.
Day 2 turns to leadership: assessing where their own team is vulnerable, building a Team Response Playbook, and rehearsing incident reporting and escalation. The capstone role play applies everything under pressure, and the summative assessment confirms who is ready.
After you run it, you'll likely notice participants forwarding you suspicious messages with a note: 'I VERIFY'd this one.'

Walk in with data. Walk out with proof.
Trainers who measure before and after design sharper sessions — and get rebooked. AssessAll, our sister assessment platform, has assessments that sit naturally alongside this programme.
Walk in knowing where every participant starts.
Pair AI-Powered Phishing & Social Engineering Defense with an AssessAll assessment. Participants take it before the workshop, so you can tune the emphasis to the room; they retake it afterwards, so you can show the client what actually moved. Better-targeted sessions, and evidence that wins the next booking.

The rest of the Bodhih family, when you need it
Make the workshop last beyond the room
A workshop is two days; the behaviour change takes months. Jobulary turns assessment evidence into a focused individual development plan (IDP) — a few quarterly objectives built on real work, re-measured honestly. Give every AI-Powered Phishing & Social Engineering Defense participant a plan to carry forward.
IDPs are launching soon — the working demo is free to explore now, no sign-up.
