Home / Data Protection Training / Data Protection Awareness Training
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.
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.
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.
Video introduction by the course author to run through the course objectives an content.
This module covers the background to the legislation, roles and responsibilities and why this legislation is important in the workplace.
It is vital that employees are fully aware of the core principles of data protection.
Failure to comply with these principles can result in the severest financial penalties.
Employees need to be aware of their rights and the rights of others when it comes to the protection of data. Module also covers workplace employee obligations.
This module reviews how employees need to support the maintenance of data protection compliance within the modern digital workplace.
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.
