In cased you missed it over the summer, the ICO has launched a series of online data protection training modules.
Data Protection Essentials has been designed to give smaller organisations, their employees and sole traders clarity on data protection, and the straightforward, practical advice and know-how to apply the essentials confidently in their everyday work. The training includes practical, real-world examples tailored to different sectors, helping organisations recognise familiar situations and apply data protection in a way that’s relevant to their day-to-day operations.
