Now Available – New Data Protection Collection

Check out our brand-new Data Protection Collection – the third Compliance Collection we launched this year. An innovative new approach for keeping awareness training programmes fresh, year on year.

Mitigating the Risks of Data Breaches

Last month, British Airways was fined £20M over a data breach that took place in 2018. While Marriott Hotels was fined for £18.4M for a cyberattack and resulting data breach between 2014 and 2018.

Data breaches and the resulting lapses in compliance with regulations can have a devastating impact on businesses – from a severe financial penalty to loss of customer trust and reputation. It is more important than ever to consider compliance with data protection regulations and incorporating a ‘privacy by design’ policy when it comes to processing data for business.

Awareness training is key in educating employees on the importance of data protection, the regulations that they must comply with, the rights of individuals whose data they process and mitigating the risks of data breaches.

New Data Protection Collection

Create a cost-effective bespoke training solution using our off-the-shelf products. Our Data Protection Collection offers a holistic solution covering a range of learning styles – combining detailed study, immersive learning, microlearning and toolbox talks to keep learners engaged. Also included for free are a number of communications resources which can be printed out or displayed in the workplace digitally to reinforce key messaging.

By rolling out effective learning interventions over a number of years and targeted messaging, our Collection can help boost learner engagement, promote knowledge retention and embed a culture of compliance.

Collections are designed to offer a highly flexible, easily scalable, and agile alternative to traditional online learning.

What’s New?

Detailed Study

We updated our detailed study courses to ensure that best practices on data protection are relevant for all organisations. The updated courses introduce and raise awareness on the importance of data protection regulations, including the difference between types of data, individual rights under data protection regulation and the eight principles of data protection.

Immersive Learning

We updated our immersive learning course on Preventing a Data Breach. The new course is scenario-based and highly gamified – placing the learner at the heart of the experience and testing them on their ability to make the right decisions on data protection. Raise awareness on the consequences of data breaches and the best practice to follow when handling personal data.

Diagnostic Assessment

Introducing a comprehensive diagnostic assessment that creates learning paths based on each learners’ knowledge and awareness levels. Learning paths for each topic are then designed in direct response to the needs and knowledge-gaps identified for each employee or team.

The new Diagnostic Assessment is a short quiz to measure the learner’s understanding of data protection and automatically create enrolments onto relevant core Take 5 courses. The assessment is useful for assessing individual training needs, offering valuable insight into common training gaps with targeted interventions tailored for each employee.

The Diagnostic Assessment is exclusively available for xAPI courses, utilising the auto-enrol functionality powered by our Astute LXP’s AI engine.

Microlearning

In addition to updating all of our existing microlearning courses, following are the new additions to the Collection:

Toolbox Talks

Two new Toolbox Talks designed as blended training courses for small groups or teams. Each Toolbox Talk includes downloadable facilitation notes.

Introducing Our New Information Security Collection

We are excited to launch the second of our Compliance Collections for Information Security – a unique approach to keeping awareness training programmes fresh, year on year. Keep your workforce cognizant no matter where they work.

Keeping Business Information Secure

Cyberattacks continue to be a concern for many organisations. A study by Accenture indicates that the most expensive component of a cyber-attack is information loss at $5.9M. Information breaches from cyberattacks can have devastating consequences on businesses – from significant financial losses to damage to reputation and job losses.

With remote working becoming the norm, in light of the COVID19 pandemic, information security is more important than ever. Employees are now spread across different locations – be it in the office or at home. It is therefore paramount to keep your workforce aware and informed on how to keep business information secure. Awareness training is vital for educating employees on the threats facing businesses, spotting the signs of cyberattacks and mitigating the risks of breaches.

One Size Does Not Fit All

When it comes to online training programs, one size does not fit all. With this in mind, we designed our Collections to help organisations create a cost-effective bespoke training solution using our off-the-shelf products. With Collections, organisations can roll out effective learning interventions over a number of years – promoting learner engagement and knowledge retention.

New Information Security Collection

Our Information Security Collection is packed with courses in a variety of learning styles – combining immersive learning, microlearning and toolbox talks to keep learners engaged. Also included are free communications resources which can be printed out or displayed in the workplace digitally to reinforce key messaging.

With novel learning experiences and targeted messaging, our Collection can help boost engagement and retention while embedding a culture of compliance.

What’s New?

Apart from a complete refresh of our existing courses, our Information Security Collection includes the following new courses.

Immersive Learning

Our immersive learning courses are scenario-based and highly interactive – placing the learner at the heart of the experience and testing them on their ability to make the right decisions.

With the new immersive-learning course on Introduction to Information Security, educate members of your staff on their responsibilities in ensuring that your organisation is protected against cyberattacks and breaches. It is a highly gamified course, using multiple gamification elements and the latest techniques in high-quality 3D styling.

Diagnostic Assessment

The new Diagnostic Assessment is a short quiz to measure the learner’s understanding of information security and automatically create enrolments onto relevant microlearning courses. The assessment is useful for assessing individual training needs, offering valuable insight into common training gaps with targeted interventions tailored for each employee.

The Diagnostic Assessment requires all the microlearning courses in the collection. It is exclusively available for xAPI courses, utilising the auto-enrol functionality powered by our Astute LXP’s AI engine.

Microlearning

In addition to our existing microlearning courses, following are the new additions to the Collection:

Toolbox Talks

Three new Toolbox Talks designed as blended training courses for small groups. Each Toolbox Talk includes downloadable facilitation notes.

Building Ethical Organisations With Anti-Bribery and Corruption Training

For many organisations, mandatory anti-bribery and corruption training can become a tedious box-ticking exercise. We believe that with the right training program, businesses can deliver compliance training that is flexible, engaging and focused on knowledge retention.

We are excited to launch the first of our Compliance Collections for Anti-Bribery and Corruption – an innovative new approach for keeping your training programmes fresh, year on year.

Our new Anti-Bribery and Corruption collection offers an engaging learning experience to employees, helping you build an ethical organisation with a culture of compliance.

The Collections Approach

For many organisations, some of the pain points of compliance training are engagement and retention. We have designed our Collections keeping this in mind. A collection offers a selection of learning interventions that enable organisations to roll out training over several years to keep training content fresh and engaging. This approach supports a multi-year training strategy, offering a flexible training program. It can also be adapted to roll out plans in response to evolving training needs and risks identified.

Our collections also deliver training in different learning styles – combining detailed study, adaptive learning, immersive learning and microlearning, along with some communications resources. The variety of learning formats is linked to higher rates of learner engagement and more effective reinforcing of key messaging.

What’s New?

Adaptive Learning

Adaptive learning courses are a new innovative approach to our longer, detailed study courses. Adaptive learning courses begin with a quiz to check the learner’s current knowledge and understanding of bribery and corruption and demonstrate their areas of competence and weakness. Based on the results of the quiz, the course is tailored to fit individual learning needs and close any gaps in knowledge.

Learners don’t need to repeat any topics which they are already familiar with, saving up to 45 minutes per employee in unnecessary study time!

Our existing Anti-Bribery and Corruption (Working Globally) course is now available in an adaptive learning format.

Core Take 5s

In addition to our existing courses, we have also added the following new microlearning courses as part of the Anti-Bribery and Corruption collection:
