Data Protection GDPR e-learning Modules

Introduction

GDPR is still a relatively new concept – and Best Practice – is evolving and changing almost on a daily basis; especially under the current climate – of schools working remotely and operating virtual lessons etc.  For this reason, training very important to help your staff stay informed of what is expected and to help promote a pro-active GDPR culture in your school.

The Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has confirmed that regular training is key to creating a GDPR culture within your school(s).

ISBL has partnered with Judicium to offer ISBL members an exclusive discount on Judicium’s GDPR e-learning modules. The e-learning modules are designed to cover all aspects, from a basic introduction to GDPR, to more in-depth training on Subject Access Request.

All of the modules are written by Judicium’s in-house team of Data Protection Experts who have correspondence with the ICO on a regular basis.  The modules are written using real-life examples of what the Data Protection Experts come across on a daily basis.

Best practice suggests that all staff complete:

  • Introduction to GDPR;

  • What is a Breach and;

  • Introduction to SARs and FoI.

  • All the modules are CPD Standards Office accredited and time stamped for due diligence purposes.

 

“We thought the e-learning modules were very user friendly and helped to raise the level of awareness throughout all staff across the whole school. The real life examples used in the training made it easy for all staff to understand and implement.”

Mary Cummins, School Business Manager, The Oaks Primary School

What reporting and assurance will it give my school?

Reports can be generated to show who has / hasn’t completed the training. Successful participants can download their CPD certificate. A copy of the certificate is also stored on the system, for due diligence purposes.

In the event of a serious data breach / investigation, generally a better view may be taken of a school; if it’s GDPR training records are up to date and complete.

 

Why is it important to keep GDPR training up to date in a school?

It is important to keep GDPR training up to date in a school because schools are ‘data-rich’ environments e.g. learner records, safeguarding, online teaching, storing and recording medical data for both employees and learners. Schools hold and process more sensitive and confidential information than most organisations of a similar size.
