New safeguarding eLearning courses available now

Living a life free from abuse is a basic human right and we all share a responsibility for ensuring that those in need of safeguarding are protected.

To help organisations deliver vital safeguarding training to their employees, VinciWorks have made four eLearning courses available:

Introduction to Safeguarding – provides an overview of the importance of safeguarding and how to identify and report suspected abuse.
Introduction to Safeguarding Adults – as well as an introduction to safeguarding, explains the specific requirements of safeguarding adults as outlined by the Care Act 2014 and other related legislation
Introduction to Safeguarding Children – as well as an introduction to safeguarding, explains the requirements of safeguarding children as outlined by the Children Acts 1989 and 2004, and other related legislation
Introduction to Safeguarding Adults and Children – covers all of the above topics, ideal for those employees who come into contact with both children and adults who may have safeguarding needs

Every course is built with the Adapt Framework to be fully responsive and can be taken by employees using personal computers, tablets or mobile phones.

Course progress is trackable with a robust audit trail showing which employees have taken which courses and the results. At the end of each course, learners may complete an interactive assessment, and on passing will be able to print off a certificate.

How are you managing your GDPR compliance requirements?

GDPR added a significant compliance burden on DPOs and data processors. Data breaches must be reported to the authorities within 72 hours, each new data processing activity needs to be documented and Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIA) must be carried out for processing that is likely to result in a high risk to individuals. Penalties for breaching GDPR can reach into the tens of millions of Euros.
