data protection e-learning

Bespoke data protection E-learning
for Your Business

Human risk has officially become the top cybersecurity challenge. Despite massive investments in technology, breaches are still happening because security is a human problem, not a technical one. With cyber-attacks frequently resulting in data breaches, it’s clear that generic, one-size-fits-all training often fails to address the unique data protection challenges and risks of a specific business.

At Data Privacy Advisory Service, we specialise in creating custom data protection E-learning content that is perfectly tailored to your organisation’s risk profile, specific needs, and industry, and can be rolled out to all of your employees. Our goal is to embed a culture of protection and accountability, empowering your staff with the practical knowledge and skills they need to handle personal data with confidence and care.

We design the content to be engaging, relevant, and actionable, ensuring your team understands not just the “what” but the “why” of data protection law. Over the past 10 years we’ve worked with SMEs, FTSE 100s and hundreds of organisations in between. Creating bespoke training programmes for their employees, ensuring that their staff know how to confidently handle data and manage cyber risk.

why e-learning

Relevance: Generic courses often use irrelevant examples. Our e-learning is tailored to your business, making the content more memorable and applicable.

Efficiency: We focus on the information that is essential for each role, preventing “information overload” and saving valuable staff time.

Risk Reduction: By addressing the specific risks and data flows within your organisation, bespoke training directly mitigates your biggest vulnerabilities and reduces the likelihood of costly data breaches and regulatory fines.

Accountability: The GDPR and other regulations place a strong emphasis on accountability. Custom training helps you demonstrate to regulators that you have taken “appropriate organisational measures” to ensure compliance.

Employee Engagement: When training is relevant and interactive, employees are more likely to be engaged, retain the information, and apply it in their daily work.

What's Included?

We begin with a consultation to understand your business, your current practices, and your specific training goals.

All content is created by our experienced data protection consultants, who are experts in both the legal requirements and practical application of data protection law.

We develop unique content, including examples and case studies, depending on what is required, which can be branded to your business.

We can provide follow-up resources, such as a summary of key points and a Q&A session, to ensure long-term knowledge retention.
