The Information Governance (IG) for Businesses course provides a comprehensive framework for managing and protecting organisational data in alignment with legal, regulatory, and ethical standards. As digital dependency grows and data protection laws become increasingly stringent, effective information governance is critical to maintaining trust, security, and operational integrity.
This course focuses on the principles of IG, covering data privacy, security, and risk management. Participants will gain a detailed understanding of UK-specific legal requirements, including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other relevant legislation. The course explores the creation and enforcement of robust policies that ensure accountability, transparency, and ethical data handling practices.
Additionally, the course addresses technical aspects of IG, such as cyber security and incident management, equipping professionals to identify vulnerabilities and respond to data breaches effectively. By the end of the course, participants will be prepared to implement strong IG strategies, mitigate risks, and foster a culture of ethical and compliant data management within their organisations.
