FAQs about eLearning courses on data protection

Are data protection courses mandatory for my employees?

Any company regardless of its type and size must train its employees in data protection. It must do this to comply with the requirements of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which stipulate that companies must have verifiable data protection measures in place.

How often should data protection training be held at the company?

Apart from the obligation to train employees in data protection, there is no legal requirement as to how often this should take place. Offering training courses at regular intervals is recommended. One of the main tasks of your internal or external data protection officer is, for example, to organize training courses.

How is online course participation documented, e.g., for the authorities?

All emails sent through our platform (invitations, certificates, etc.) are stored in our revision-proof email archive. This is how we, at IITR, guarantee valid legal proof of your employees’ participation in the data protection courses.

How long are the contract periods?

The contract period is 12 months and is extended by 12 months if no notice is given.

Can the eLearning courses on data protection also be taken on tablets or smartphones?

Yes, the data protection training courses can also be taken on tablets and smartphones. Most modules have training videos – this requires audio playback. The videos also give you the option to switch on English subtitles.

Who administers the online courses?

A company employee can go on the platform and issue invitations to participate in online data protection courses.

How long is an invitation to participate in an online course valid?

The invitation is valid for 30 days. Before it expires, the participant receives a reminder. In addition, you can send individual invitations to the data protection courses as well as reminders to your employees.

Can course takers interrupt a training session?

Yes, a training session can be interrupted at any time and restarted at a later time.

How are your employees tested?
