Qualification Specification
EU and UK data protection legislation requires every organisation based in the EU or UK, or processing data on UK or EU citizens, to train their staff to an adequate level to keep personal information safe, this means that every employee, volunteer or temporary member of staff within your organisation who has access to personal data must have a fundamental understanding of data protection, privacy and data security.
For team members who are in junior roles, do not deal actively with confidential or sensitive personal information, or for those requiring an annual refresher, a cost effective solution to give them the basic knowledge and information they require is this Data Protection eLearning level 1 course.
