Introduction
Course overview
Administrative staff handle large volumes of personal information every day, including staff records, customer details, visitor logs, emails, contracts and meeting notes. A misdirected email, an unlocked cabinet or an over-shared spreadsheet can quickly turn into a serious data breach, with regulatory, financial and reputational consequences.
This Data Protection Essentials for Administrative Staff training course explains the principles of data protection in clear, practical terms and shows how they apply to everyday office work. Participants learn what personal data is, the lawful reasons for using it, how to keep it secure, how long to keep it and how to respond to requests and incidents.
The course draws on widely recognised data protection principles and good practice, helping participants build habits that protect individuals and their organisation.
