Email, chat, shared drives, video calls and cloud documents help staff work faster, yet each one is also a way for confidential information to leave the building. Most data breaches and compliance failures involve ordinary employees using ordinary tools without knowing the rules. Five days build confident, compliant digital habits so that people can use modern workplace platforms freely while protecting their organisation.
You learn how to manage files, permissions and version history, share documents with internal and external parties, run meetings and collaboration spaces responsibly, and handle email, attachments and phishing attempts. Sessions explain personal data and privacy principles, records retention and legal holds, passwords, multi-factor authentication, mobile device and remote working security, acceptable use policy, social media conduct and the responsible use of generative AI tools. The programme is practical for administrative staff, officers, supervisors and team leaders, human resource and records staff, as well as managers who must enforce policy across government, NGOs, schools, banks and companies. Classroom, online and in-house delivery are available, with a CPD-accredited Certificate of Completion. By the end you can apply organisational rules to daily tasks and spot risky behaviour before it becomes an incident.
Digital fluency is no longer limited to knowing which buttons to press. Staff are expected to decide, many times each day, what can be shared, with whom, through which channel and for how long it should be kept. Organisations meanwhile face data protection law, donor and audit requirements, client confidentiality obligations and a steady stream of social engineering attacks. The weakest link is rarely the technology; it is a rushed or uninformed user.
This course combines practical tool skills with the governance and compliance principles that sit behind them. Participants start with the digital workplace and its risks, then examine file and folder organisation, naming conventions, permissions and sharing options across common platforms such as Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. They study email and messaging etiquette and security, how to recognise phishing and fraud, and how to use collaboration spaces without creating shadow records. Other sessions explain data protection principles, classification of information, retention schedules, remote and mobile working, device hygiene, incident reporting and the acceptable use of social media and AI assistants.
Material is delivered through demonstrations, scenario cards and short hands-on tasks that suit a mixed audience, including participants with limited technical background. Everyone finishes with a personal digital conduct checklist and an action plan for improving practice in their team.
By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
