About this course
For anyone who handles information about customers, colleagues, applicants or suppliers, this course makes data protection part of everyday work. Learners practise making careful decisions about collecting, using, sharing and keeping personal information without being expected to become legal specialists. Organisation-specific roles, systems and reporting routes remain for the employer to explain.
