Challenges when training employees
Per the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), all employees who have access to personal data must be trained regularly in data protection.
Employee training can be challenging, due to a lack of motivation or the complexity of the subject.
Online training is an optimal solution to meet this challenge.
Practical online training
Your employees can fit the training into their work day when it best suits them. High quality multimedia teaching materials provide the necessary training content, including interactive practice questions to reinforce learning. Employees receive a certificate at the end after successful completion of a test.
You can monitor employee training progress at any time and verify compliance with GDPR accountability requirements.
