Explanation
In the three-tier security education model, Security Training sits between Awareness and Education. Its PRIMARY goal is to develop hands-on, practical proficiency in specific security-related skills - such as how to respond to phishing emails, use security tools, or follow incident response procedures. Option A is incorrect because training complements policies, not replaces them. Option C is incorrect as training is not intended to reduce audits. Option D is incorrect and describes a privilege management decision, not an educational goal. Training is about skill-building, distinct from awareness (noticing issues) and education (understanding principles).
