CYBR 510, Physical, Operations, and Personnel Security:

This was an introductory course on security in general.  This course had a lot of homework assignments.  Each week we were required to participate in the discussion forums, write in a journal and complete a written assignment.  The course centered on management of security professionals, primarily physical security, however, the concepts are the same for IT security.  Organizational planning, including selection of the right people, motivation of the work force and elimination of unsuitable or unfit personnel were discussed.  Training of personnel was covered.  Different security modes, proprietary and contract security, was discussed.  Development of security systems, both physical and information technology, was presented.  Finally, an introduction to crisis management was made.
