Training for data protection awareness

Why is this required?

Under the UK GDPR, organisations are required to ensure that they are doing everything in their power to ensure the safety and privacy of personal data.

This requirement is somewhat ambiguous, however it does imply that organisations have a minimum requirement to train their staff in data protection and to make sure that this training is done on a regular basis. 

Who needs to be trained?

All staff that are involved in the processing of personal data should be trained on induction and also on an annual basis (minimum requirement).

Typically, staff who are classified as ‘information workers’ would fall into the category of needing this training.

What is the course curriculum?

This course provides the basic understanding of data protection needed for compliance purposes.

It is designed for organisations that need to train their staff in GDPR. It includes 4 modules and 27 lessons.

Module 1 - Course Introduction

What are the key benefits?

The most obvious benefit with having this training in place is that your organisation will be meeting a legal requirement to train their staff (under Articles 5 and 32 of the UK GDPR).

However, other key benefits include:

A reduced risk of  personal data breach due to staff being aware of their obligations.

Less likely that your organisation will fail procurement questions relating to staff awareness and data protection.
