Transforming Compliance Training: How We Made Cyber Security Fun and Effective!
At Omniplex Learning, we reimagined compliance training with the Cyber Ninjas Campaign — a creative, gamified, and strategic narrative-driven experience. It wasn’t just about compliance; it made learning immersive, memorable, and enjoyable.

The campaign
Phase 1: The teaser
The campaign began with a simulated hack by a fictional “Hacktivist,” played by none other than our Head of Talent. This character infiltrated internal communication channels, sending cryptic messages that created buzz and excitement across the organisation. A profiling quiz was also introduced, sparking curiosity and engagement, with 70% of employees participating within hours.
Phase 2: The learning event
The campaign, conceptualised and delivered by our Instructional Design Manager, featured an innovative model that blended multimedia content, gamification, and storytelling. Posters, stickers, and storyline-driven interactions brought the Hacktivist character to life, making the training feel like an immersive and engaging experience rather than a compliance task.
Phase 3: The follow-up
Off-the-shelf content wasn’t cutting it. We collaborated with CCS and their subject matter experts to create high-impact, relevant e-learning, including teaser videos, microlearning, and blended resources that spoke directly to learners’ day-to-day challenges.
The results
Engagement rate
A remarkable 94% of employees actively engaged with the campaign throughout its duration. This exceptional level of participation underscores the programme’s ability to resonate with employees and maintain their interest in critical cybersecurity topics.
Training completion
Every single employee who took part-100%-successfully earned their Cyber Ninja certificates. This achievement reflects the thorough and accessible nature of the training, which equips all participants with the skills and confidence needed to tackle cybersecurity challenges.
Sustained learning
An impressive 25% of employees went beyond the standard training by completing additional post-training activities. This showcases the programme’s success not only in sparking initial interest but also in encouraging a deeper commitment to learning and practising key cybersecurity principles.
Positive feedback
The feedback from employees has been overwhelmingly positive, with many describing the training as “fun,” “highly engaging,” and “unexpectedly impactful.” This enthusiastic response highlights the programme’s effectiveness in delivering cybersecurity awareness in a way that captivates attention and keeps participants fully engaged.
“This is the kind of training you have to do, not necessarily want to do—but the buzz in the office was undeniable. Everyone was talking about the hacktivist, and even as a program administrator, I found it genuinely fun to participate.”
