No other provider combines this level of expertise with a commitment to supporting successful change.
I can honestly say most of us were not exactly looking forward to our information governance training, but afterward we were all converts, and we all found it very interesting and helpful
I just wanted to say thank you for the training. You did a really great job and were very knowledgeable. I am really pleased that I chose your company to deliver this for us.
This was a very informative GDPR course in which the trainer managed to make a dry topic both accessible and engaging. It was well-paced and afforded attendees the opportunity to gain clarity on the application of GDPR relative to their field of work. I would definitely recommend this course to anyone seeking a strong understanding on which to build their knowledge of GDPR.
After not knowing what to expect with this course I was pleasantly surprised. The instructor made the topic interesting that meant everyone was engaged. He answered all questions that were asked in a clear and concise way.
There was nothing missing, it was all very relevant and interesting, with lots to think about. I thought that Michael was very good at explaining the subject and he did say that if we are unsure about anything we can contact them which is reassuring.
The presenter was extremely knowledgeable and brought a level of belief that was impossible to question
This course could have been death by GDPR for those of us for whom it is just another part of the job we do but the presenter made it interesting and by using examples and relating it back to our organisation – useful. It was good to have short sessions within the day so we didn’t get too bogged down
We expected, by the nature of the content, the course to be quite dull and therefore the day to drag. However Michael delivered the course with humour, enthusiasm and a sound knowledge of the subject matter and so the day went relatively quickly.We all feel as though we have a much better understanding of GDPR and what will be expected of us as a company
Really useful and highlighted some points that I hadn’t picked up on from other online research I had done. Exercises were particularly useful and I liked that the course had a relaxed pace that enable us to have discussions on points. Would definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting to really understand GDPR
The forward thinking of the team was brilliant as this worked so well for us. It was tailored exactly around our needs and delivered exactly what we needed. The added on going support is a very sensible and appreciated bonus. Thank you, great course and company.
Excellent engagement and understanding from a very knowledgeable tutor – I enjoyed what I thought was going to be quite a ‘dry’ subject.
I thought it was extremely engaging and useful for my everyday work. I received a lot of practical tips and tailored advice for my organisation. It was excellent and I feel more confident about FOI now.
The Course is split into seven modules, starting with core concepts, focussing on key risk areas, and then moving onto practical implementation:
What are interests? This first module explains what interests are and the different type of interests that exist
In this module we explore how interests can cause conflicts and what kind of conflicts can arise. We discuss how the perception of any conflicts of interests matters and explore both actual and potential conflicts
We consider fraud and bribery and how they relate to conflicts of interests. The module explores how you can use your conflicts of interests systems to effectively prevent fraud and bribery and explore how these systems will help your organisation comply with its statutory duty to prevent both.
Gifts, sponsorship and hospitality can be problematic for organisations so this module explores what they are and how to manage them in the context of conflicts of interests.
Module 5 teaches you when and how to get people to declare any interests they have. It also covers how to manage these declarations in a GDPR compliant way.
Once interests are declared what do you do? This module covers next steps, from decision making to communication and implementation.
The final stage is implementation. This module explores what you will do to apply your learning once the course ends with a focus on best practice and key performance indicators for successful delivery.
The course is split into eight modules covering all aspects of the Freedom of Information:
Module 1: Background and Context
Module 2: Recognising and Handling Requests
Module 3: Exemptions Part 1
Module 4: Exemptions Part 2
Module 5: Statutory Publication Schemes
Module 6: Complaints and Vexatious Request
Module 7: Implementing Your Learning
Almost all organisations, and the people working in them, handle personal data – of colleagues, suppliers and customers. The GDPR sets a statutory framework for the safe collection and processing of that data. Understanding the GDPR therefore helps build trust, avoid risks, and minimises the risk of enforcement action by regulators. The landscape is constantly evolving – whether it’s legal changes such as the Data User and Access Act, with implications for marketing and safeguarding, or the increasing use of AI, meaning GDPR compliance never sits still. Finally, the vast majority of data breaches are caused by human error while phishing and hacking is always a threat. Understanding the GDPR will help you stay on top of your legal duties, and remain innovative in the safe and effective use of personal data.
The course is split into eight modules covering all aspects of the GDPR:
Module 1: Background and Context
Module 2: The GDPR’s Core
Module 3: Processing Data Lawfully
Module 4: Data With Special Protection
Module 5: GDPR Rights
Module 6: Keeping Data Secure
Module 7: Your Systems and Processes
Module 8: Implementing Your Learning
What is a risk? What is risk management? Why is it important for organisations to take risks?
In this module we explore how to identify internal and external risks, and risks arising from adverse events
We explain the best way to set out the risks you have identified and the context in which your risks are set
Next we set out how to define the likelihood of a risk occurring and the consequences if it did, and use that to score your risks. Once risks are scored we will create a risk heat-map to visualise your organisation’s risk profile.
Module 5 teaches you the different ways you can manage your risks. As part of this we will explore your appetite and tolerance for risks in different contexts to help you choose the right approach for specific risks you have identified
The next module moves us on to the next step in the risk management process, by discussing ways to assure your risk management systems and approaches to managing specific risks is effective. It also explores systems and processes to ensure your risk management systems are as robust and sustainable as possible
The final part of your learning explores important concepts linked to risk management, such as opportunities (‘positive’ risks) and issues (when risks happen)
The final stage is implementation. This module explores what you will do to apply your learning once the course ends with a focus on best practice and key performance indicators for successful delivery.
Open courses are held at one of our locations in London, Birmingham and Manchester. They are attended in person, so are ideal for people who like to network and enjoy group work.
The virtual classroom is trainer led, but takes place online. It is the best option for people who do not wish to travel, as it can be attended from your home, office, or anywhere.
Online learning is best for people who wish to learn at their own pace, and complete training in their own time. You are still able to ask questions of your trainer and the content is the same as other settings.
A fourth option for learning is to have us come to you. This option is best for organisations who wish multiple colleagues to learn about one or more of the key topics outlined above. In house training ahs other advantages too:
