Description

When information flows freely across emails, servers and shared drives, who’s keeping an eye on what goes where? The Information Governance Training Course gives you a solid grasp of how information should be handled, stored, and shared responsibly—without overloading you with jargon or abstract concepts. It covers the rules and good habits that help prevent data breaches, mishandling of documents, and those accidental “reply-alls” that could land you in trouble.

Whether you're working in healthcare, education, finance, or the local bakery with a very organised spreadsheet, understanding information governance is no longer optional. This course walks you through data protection, record management, information security and your legal duties, all with a touch of clarity (and a pinch of dry humour where appropriate). If you've ever wondered what happens when data goes wandering, this is the place to get your answers—before it’s your inbox in the headlines.
